WELCOME TO OUR 21 DAYS OF PRAYER &
FASTING GUIDE
(2nd February - 22nd February 2026)

“Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness.”‭‭- Luke 4:1 (NIV)

At the start of His ministry, Jesus was not rushed into the crowd or pushed into the spotlight. He was led by the Spirit into the wilderness. It was there, in the silence and the hunger, that His identity was tested, His dependence was refined, and His authority was confirmed. The wilderness was not a setback. It was sacred space.

We all walk through seasons that stretch us — emotionally, mentally, physically, and spiritually. Strength for those moments doesn’t come from striving harder. It comes from going deeper. Isaiah 40:31 reminds us that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength.

This year, as we step into 21 Days of Prayer and Fasting, we are following the way of Jesus. We are turning aside from the noise. We are choosing stillness over distraction. We are making space for God to speak clearly again. When Jesus was tested, He did not respond with emotion or instinct. He responded with the Word. He stood secure in what the Father had already spoken.

During these 21 days, we will also walk together through our devotional, Known

  • 7 Days to Be Known by Him

  • 7 Days to Know Him

  • 7 Days to Make Him Known

This is more than a spiritual rhythm. It is an invitation to realign your heart, reset your focus, and be renewed by the presence of God. The same Spirit who led Jesus is leading us now. He is preparing us for all that is ahead.

Let’s believe that this will be a season of fresh vision, deeper intimacy, and renewed passion to carry His presence and His purpose.

WHAT IS FASTING?

Biblical fasting is giving up specific foods and drink for a specified number of days.

Fasting, prayer and reading God’s Word go hand in hand. When you fast, also pray for God’s purpose and plan for your life to be revealed. Fast and pray about every major decision in your life.

Simply put, fasting is a way to conquer the physical and open the door to the supernatural in your life. When you deny your body, you feed your spirit and grow closer to the Lord.


WHY FAST?

- 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. In the Bible, fasting is always connected with prayer.

“While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I 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)

- FASTING DEMONSTRATES THE DEPTH OF YOUR DESIRE WHEN PRAYING FOR SOMETHING.
It shows you that you are serious enough about your prayer request to pay a personal price. God honors deep desire and praying in faith.

“Declare a holy fast; call a sacred assembly. Summon the elders and all who live in the land to the house of the Lord your God, and cry out to the Lord.” Joel 1:14 (NIV)

“Even now,” declares the Lord, “return to Me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.” Joel 2:12 (NASB)

- FASTING RELEASES GOD'S SUPERNATURAL POWER.
It is a tool we can use when there is opposition to God’s will. Satan would like nothing better than to cause division, discouragement, defeat, depression, and doubt among us. United prayer and fasting has always been used by God to deal a decisive blow to the enemy!

“God says, “Is not this the kind of fasting I have chosen: to loose the chains of injustice and untie the cords of the yoke, to set the oppressed free and break every yoke?” Isaiah 58:6 (NIV)


HOW DO I FAST?

Before beginning a fast, write down a plan and make a verbal commitment to the Lord. When you approach it with determination, you’ll be less likely to waiver in weak moments.

His fasting principles allow you the flexibility to take care of your job and duties while still making a sacrifice to honor Him. 

If the traditional full fast has always made you shy away from this important principle, there are are many different types of fasts.

Find the fast or combination of fasts that fits your needs.

For example, if you choose to go on a 14-day fast, you may want to begin with a full fast for 1-3 days and then continue with a Daniel Fast or some other type of partial fast for the remainder of the 14 days. 

No matter which fast you decide on, you must always remember to consult your doctor and drink lots of water.


TYPES OF FASTS

FULL FAST

Drink only liquids – especially water. On this type of fast you may also take in clear broth and 100 percent fruit or vegetable juices in order to maintain your strength. You establish the number of days for your fast in your prayer time. Be sure to consult your doctor.

PARTIAL FAST

There are many options for partial fasts. Below are just a few for you to select from.

>> DANIEL FAST
The most frequently used example of a partial fast, found in Daniel, chapter 10, the Daniel Fast is a fast from meats, sweets, breads and any drink, except water, for a specific time period (Daniel 10:2-3). The easiest way to think of this fast is you should eat vegetables, fruits and drink only water. Be sure to consult your doctor, especially if you have any medical condition.

>> The following are examples of other types of partial fasts. But remember, the type of fast you select is what you and the Lord agree upon.

>> GIVE UP ONE ITEM OF FOOD OR DRINK such as caffeine, coffee, soft drinks or sweets or give up one meal.

>> FAST FOR A SPECIFIC NUMBER OF DAYS, one day, three days, so on.

>> CHOOSE TO FAST FROM 6.AM. TO 3.P.M or from sun-up to sundown. When doing this type of fast, consider your work and sleep schedule. The hours that you sleep should not be considered part of your fasting period, so the timeframe for this type of fast may vary. The Lord speaks of Private fasts and Corporate fasts in Scripture.

CORPORATE FAST

A Corporate fast is a joint fast of believers for a specific purpose that can yield powerful results. Although this fast involves others, it is also very much a “private and personal experience.” Esther called all of her people to fast for protection against danger (Esther 4:16). Samuel declared a fast for national revival (1 Samuel 7).
