PRAISE CHURCH 21-DAY FAST UPCOMING IN 2025

 TYPES OF FASTS

Your personal fast should present a level of challenge, but it is very important to know your body, your options, and most importantly, to seek God in prayer and follow what what you think is best for you.

PLEASE NOTE: If you have any medical conditions or are pregnant, check with your physician before fasting.

COMPLETE FAST

In this type of fast, you drink only liquids, typically water with light juices & clear broths as an option.

SELECTIVE FAST

This type of fast involves removing certain elements from your diet. One example of a selective fast is the Daniel Fast, during which you remove meat, sweets, dairy, and bread from your diet and consume water and juice for fluids and fruits and vegetables for food.

You can find many recipes and more information on Daniel fasts by searching on the internet.

PARTIAL FAST

This fast is sometimes called the “Jewish Fast” and involves abstaining from eating any type of food in the morning and afternoon. This can either correlate to specific times of the day, such as 6:00 am to 3:00 pm, or from sunup to sundown.

 SOUL FAST
            This fast is a great option if you do not have much experience fasting food, have health issues that prevent you from fasting food, or if you wish to refocus certain areas of your life that are out of balance.
             For example, you might choose to stop using social media or watching television for the duration of the fast and then carefully bring that element back into your life in healthy doses at the conclusion of the fast
