21 days - Fasting & PrayerSample

Fasting for God’s intervention

Read Esther 4:15-17.

The fasting of the entire people changes the evil plan of destruction against the Jews.

The people fasted for their queen (leader) to make a difference in the spiritual dimension.

Imagine if we as a whole church fasted together and thereby experienced how our fasting changed history? Isn’t the very thought itself fascinating?

Immediately following this fast in the Book of Esther, amazing things happen. Esther goes to the king with death-defying courage that could cost her her life. But she finds extraordinary favor with the king, who promises to grant her every wish. 

The following night, the king cannot sleep, begins to leaf through old history books, and by “chance” comes across important information that changes the course of history.

In the end, the entire nation of Israel is saved from the evil Haman’s horrific plans of destruction.

In which areas would you like fasting with your group and/or family to make a difference? Is there a specific issue where you need a breakthrough?

Bring this to Jesus together in prayer and consider how during this Fast you can establish common fasting and prayer moments for this important concern.

Prayer, Get Free & Next Step:

Think about a first specific step today. For example, mark a date in your calendar for a first meeting so that you can take the first step together. And don’t forget to write down the topics for which you pray together. Maybe you can already put a reminder in your calendar 6 months from now to look back at what you prayed for and what has happened since then.
