21 Days of Prayer + Fasting

Join us as a church as we spend 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting together. Over these 21 days, we are going to be seeking God together and growing in our relationship with Jesus. We will be praying and believing to see miracles take place.

As we dig in, we invite you to join us in deeper conversations on our Wave Church podcast. Available on our app, our website, and all podcast platforms. You can also find it by clicking HERE.

WHY DO WE PRAY?

We believe in the power of prayer and fasting as a practice to build deeper relationship with God. As we draw near to God, we find ourselves aligned with His heart and good plans for us.

You can always submit your prayer requests HERE.

WHY DO WE FAST?

The goal of fasting is to draw nearer to God. Biblical fasting always has to do with eliminating distractions for a spiritual purpose; it hits the reset button of our soul and renews us from the inside out. It also enables us to celebrate the goodness and mercy of God and prepares our hearts for all the good things God desires to bring into our lives. Remember, 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 the Holy Spirit leads you to do.

• Scriptures about fasting:
  • Matthew 6:16-18
  • Matthew 9:14-15
