Why You Should Fast At The Beginning Of The Year

Plan a special time with God each day reading His word, praying and meditating

- Zenoyise John

YOUR success in 2018 can be determined by what you do with the first few weeks of the year. With so much conflict and turmoil around us including sicknesses, economic strife, political instability and family problems, there is no better way to start the year than to indulge in biblical fasting and prayer and set the tone for the rest of the year.

FASTING OPENS DOORS

In his fasting guide, American pastor, author and television personality, Pastor Jentezen Franklin, points out that fasting is the key to the door you’re looking for.

“Even Christ said, 'This kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting' (Mark 9:29). If we pray, fast and give God our first and best at the beginning of the year, He will honour this sacrifice and bless our entire year,” he says.
