    About this ebook

    Before You Fast was birthed out of a conversation between myself and a few women of God. It was after the New Year, when Christiandom is in fasting season. We were wrestling with whether or not we should fast just because our churches called a corporate fast or if we should abstain because it was not prompted by the spirit of God.As a result of that discussion, I felt compelled to go to the word of God to make my own determination. I have to say, God opened my eyes a bit more about the fast and what really makes it effective. Before You Fast is a reflection of what I learned, with hopes that it changes the perspective of all those who indulge in this journal journey.It is my prayer that God will show up like never before during those times you feel the need to fast and pray.26

      Jun 24, 2022

      We pray for a variety of reasons: it is a form of serving God (Luke 2:36-38) and obeying Him (Phil 4:6-7). We pray to demonstrate our faith in God, but most importantly, because Jesus did it. Prayers not prayed will be prayers unanswered. If the Syri
