21 Days of Prayer & Fasting
January 5 - 25
God has directed us to a 21-day fast for 2026.
Jan 5-25, 2025
Every day presents a choice, and too often we put off what matters most, waiting for “someday.”
But TODAY IS THE DAY to embrace the challenge of 21 days of prayer and fasting. For the next three weeks, we will intentionally seek God through daily prayer, trusting Him to move powerfully in our lives.
As 2 Corinthians 6:2 reminds us, “Now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.”
Throughout Scripture, fasting always precedes seasons of growth and blessing. Over these 21 days, your commitment will open the door to some of the greatest opportunities to experience God’s blessings.
We are filled with anticipation for all that God will do in your life and in the life of TFH.
So, TODAY IS THE DAY for you to join us as a church family and prepare for what God has in store for us in 2025!
GUIDE TO 21 Day FAST
• Consult a doctor if you have any medical issues before starting your fast.
• A fast is a time of denying yourself food for a set time. The purpose is to devote time to God in prayer and have a prayerful attitude throughout the day.
• Be sure that you know why you are fasting. It’s not to lose weight.
• Drink plenty of fluids. Water is best.
• Have a specific prayer list to guide you (see our suggested list).
• Journal what you prayed for. You will be amazed!
SUGGESTED SCHEDULE FOR YOU:
EVENING BEFORE YOU BEGIN
• Eat a normal, but not excessive, dinner at your regular dinnertime.
• Before bed, spend time reading Scripture.
(Suggested Scriptures to read: Psalm 1, Psalm 63, Luke 4).
• Spend some time praying asking God to increase your passion for Him. Confess any sins you know are hindering your relationship with God.
• Once you get in bed, pray until you fall asleep.
MORNING OF YOUR FAST
• Wake up at your normal time.
• Instead of eating breakfast, spend time with God.
Read Philippians 2:1-11.
• Reflect on Christ’s sacrifice for you. Pray that God will enable you to have His attitude today.
During the hours when you are hungry, view those hunger pains as God nudging you to pray. Pray quietly throughout the morning, even during your regular routine. Engage your normal responsibilities but do so with an awareness of His grace.
LUNCH TIME
During your lunch hour, remove yourself from the day-to-day rush and spend 20 or 30 minutes in prayer. Walk around outside of your office or home. Shut off the noise and spend some time listening to God. If there is a decision or a struggle in your life, ask God to give you clarity.
AFTERNOON
This will be the time when you are most hungry and weak. Each time you are hungry, thank Him for filling you spiritually. Each time you feel weak, thank Him for being the One who truly satisfies (Psalm 63:8).
EVENING
• The last few hours of the fast are often the most intimate with God and the most clarifying.
• Devote time praying for your personal spiritual health.
• Spend time declaring God’s greatness and thanking Him for all He has done.
• Confess any ongoing struggles or sins you wrestle with.
• Yield to Him. Submit to Him.
• Devote time praying for The Father’s House, your church.
