(S- GRP =Va
ed AAWe are calling on every YRockers to join our
#WeekofFire mid-year prayer and fasting. This is the
time of year when we corporately consecrate ourselves,
our families, and ministries to God. Believe God for
victories and breakthroughs in every area of your life
this second half of the year 2021.
“Consecrate yourselves,
for tomorrow th@{LORD will do amazing things among you.”
JOSHUA 3:5
As a spiritual family, we begin this second half of the
year with a season of prayer and fasting. It is our way of
humbling ourselves before God and consecrating to Him
the remaining months. It is also the time when we
corporately come into agreement and believe together
for breakthroughs in our personal lives, families, finances,
and churches
Over the years, as a result of this time of prayer,
we have seen YRockers receive healing, salvation,
promotion, direction, family restoration, miraculous
provision, and tremendous growth in their Life groups
and churches. One of the highlights is always seeing and
hearing testimonies of how God answers over and beyond
what people ask.
As you join our #WeekofFire, believe in your heart, by
faith, that there is so much more to expect in 2021,
God is not done yet! It will be a year of miracles and
answered prayersSCHEDULES

the Bible. Jesus expected His followers to fast, and
He said that God rewards fasting. Fasting, according
to the Bible, means to voluntarily reduce or eliminate
your intake of food for a specific time and purpose
What is the purpose of fasting? It is designed to
intensify our dependence on God by weakening our
dependence on food and other things
bares
More than any other discipline, fasting reveals the
things that control us. This is a wonderful benefit to the
true disciple who longs to be transformed into the
image of Jesus Christ. We cover up what is inside us
with food and other good things, but in fasting these
things surface. If pride controls us, it will be revealed
almost immediately. David writes, “/ humbled my soul
with fasting” (Psalm 69:10). Anger, bitterness, jealousy,
strife, fear—if they are within us, they will surface
during fasting.SN
1. Fasting gives you more time for prayer. You can use
the time you'd normally spend eating as time in prayer
for what God wants to do among us during #WeekofFire.
In the Bible, fasting is always connected with prayer.
"While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the
Holy Spirit said, 'Set apart for me Barnabas and
Saul for the work to which | have called them.’
So after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their
hands on them and sent them off.”
Acts 13:2-3 (NIV)
2. Fasting expresses and deepens our hunger for God.
Fasting reminds us that we are sustained “by every word
that proceeds from the mouth of God:” (Matt. 4:4).
Food does not sustain us; God sustains us. In Christ,
“All things hold together” (Colossians 1:17). Therefore,
in experiences of fasting, we are abstaining from
food or other activities and feasting on God’s Word.
3. Fasting brings revival.
Fasting helps us prevail in prayer and intercession.
Daniel understood that Israel was headed for destruction.
He also knew that in times like these, there is only
one recourse—intercession through praying and fasting.
Throughout human history, God has brought revival and
delivered nations from destruction in response to prayer
and fasting.
in the first year of his reign, i, Daniel, understood from the scriptures,
according to the word of the Lord given to Jeremiah
the prophet, that the desolation of Jerusalem would last seventy years.
so i turned to the lord God and pleaded with him in prayer
and petition, in fasting, and in sackcloth and ashes.
Daniel 9:2,3Often in the Bible, God's people fasted immediately
before a major victory, miracle, or answer to prayer.
It prepared them for a blessing!
* Moses fasted before he received the Ten Commandments.
"Moses was there with the Lord forty days and forty
nights without eating bread or drinking water.
And he wrote on the tablets the words of the
covenant--the Tem Commandments.”
Exodus 34:28 (NIV)
* The Israelites fasted before a miraculous victory.
"Some men came and told Jehoshaphat, "A vast army is coming against
you from Edom, from the other side of the Sea. It is already in Hazazon
Tamar” (that is, En Gedi), Alarmed, Jehoshaphat resolved to inquire of
the Lord, and he proclaimed a fast for all Judah."
2 Chronicles 20:2-3 (NIV)
+ Daniel fasted in order to receive guidance from God.
"So | turned to the Lord God and pleaded with him in prayer and petition
in fasting, and in sackcloth and ashes.”
Daniel 9:3 (NIV)
* Jesus fasted during His victory over temptation.
"For forty wilderness days and nights
he was tested by the Devil. He ate
nothing during those days, and when the time
was up he was hungry.”
Luke 4:2 (Msg)Pray that the Holy Spirit will guide you to the
