We believe in the power of prayer, and we believe that prayer is a vital part of our walk with God. In every situation, whether good or bad, we must pray before acting. Prayer is not, first and foremost, about making lists, getting our words exactly right, reciting memorized supplications, or being in a particular posture.

Prayer is about a deep and vital relationship with the God who made and loves us. When we realize God’s heart for us, we naturally long to communicate with Him and always be in His presence. Fasting is an act of abstaining from something for a period of time for a spiritual purpose—it’s intentionally emptying oneself to be receptive to something else.

Fasting and praying serve as powerful spiritual disciplines that encompass self-discipline, repentance, seeking guidance, purification of the heart, communication with God, submission to His will, intercession for others, and expressions of gratitude and worship. These practices are ways to draw closer to God and deepen our faith. Our prayer for you is that when you discover the beauty of daily conversation with Him, you’ll experience the presence of God that will change your life.
