FASTING WITH PERSEVERANCE
In keeping with our commitment to “Prospering Through Perseverance,” the Mount Pisgah Harnett Church family is encouraged to join our forty days of corporate fasting and praying beginning on Tuesday, March 11, and concluding on Saturday, April 19, 2025, which is the Saturday before Resurrection Sunday. We will have an in-person prayer meeting on Saturday, March 15, 2025, and on Saturday, April 19, 2025.
This season of fasting and prayer is designed to encourage us to fulfill God’s plan for our lives individually, and the church corporately. In addition, we will be intentional about walking by faith, not by sight. We are believing God for breakthroughs, for casting down strongholds, and for yokes being destroyed as we pursue the things of God. Our fasting and praying will help us to remain steadfast in our commitment to Christ.
As with previous fasts, anyone who is not able to fast for medical reasons is encouraged to give up other things as a part of the fast. For example, there may be a specific food that someone may choose not to eat or give up social media or watching television.
The fast will consist of the following. Water is allowed during the day.
Week 1 – fasting for the first 6 hours of the day
Week 2 – fasting for the first 9 hours of the day
Week 3 – fasting for the first 12 hours of the day
Week 4 – fasting for the first 6 hours of the day – no meats, no sweets, no junk food, and no caffeine
Week 5 – fasting for the first 9 hours of the day – no meats, no sweets, no junk food, and no caffeine
Week 6 – fasting for the first 12 hours of the day – no meats, no sweets, no junk food, and no caffeine
We believe God will honor this time of fasting and prayer for the Mount Pisgah Church family.
