drink, especially as a religious observance."
T      he corporate fast this year is
the 3-Day Esther Fast! This is a
powerful fast that Esther and her
people embarked on. In the Book
of Esther, she embarked on a 3-
day dry fast. However, we make
modifications to our fast, especially
for our health needs.
This Fast Consists of:
   Water
   Herbal Tea
   Lemon Water
   Any Needed Modifications
It's time to fast again, and this year we
are expecting a move from God!
So, thank you for being interested in
fasting, and let's first start with the
misconceptions associated with this
practice.

                    FAQ
        Frequently Asked Questions
    When does the Fast Start & What Type of Fast?
1   February 1, 2023 to February 3, 2023. You are welcome to
    start the fast any time of the year. Also, the Esther Fast is a 3-
    Day Dry Fast- We modify it with Water Fasting.
    Can You Choose to Fast or Do you have to Be Led?
2   We must fast as Christians. Jesus lets us know that prayer
    and fasting are pivotal to our walk. Pray over yourself before
    you embark on a fast.
    Can I Modify the Fast For Me?
3   Yes, this fast can be modified for your personal health. You
    are welcome to make any needed modifications. (look at pg
    6 for details)
    What Time Frames Are We Allowed to Eat?
4   When you are water fasting, there is no permitted time to
    eat. Only drinking water. During your Daniel Fast you can eat
    any time of the day.
     Can I Fast On My Period or While I'm Sick?
5    Yes, you are welcome to fast on your period. However, if you
     are sick, don't start your fast until 2 weeks after you are back
     to optimal health.
    What Do I Do If I Don't Make It the Full 3 Days?
6   If you do not make it without the food, keep it going with
    your daily to-do list, as in devotion, prayer, and Bible reading!
    You aren't doing it for the food, but for a closer relationship
    with God.

                                           Fasting
                                           Benefits:
                                           With fasting, we see spiritual and
                                           physical benefits. The biggest key is
                                           recognizing that we can't accomplish
                                           certain things with prayer alone. We
                                           must Pray and Fast!
                                           "But this kind does not come out except
                                           by prayer and fasting." (Mat.17:21)
                                           WHAT YOU GAIN IN A FAST:

            Esther Fast
Day     Water Fasting (modifications if needed)
        Goal: It's All Mental
1       The first day is for jump-starting your system and helping
        you get things in order. Get your heart and mind in order to
        lean on Christ in this time of fasting and not your own
Day
        strength.
        Water Fasting (modifications if needed)
        Goal: Unbind HER
2       The second day is about unbinding from your past actions,
        past seasons, and past struggles. God is wanting you to walk
        in freedom. God wants to know what keeps you bound so
        He can free you.
Day     Water Fasting (modifications if needed)
        Goal: Establish HER
3       The final day is all about becoming established in God and in
        your purpose. This fast is to make you firm in what God has
        said over you and what He is doing in your life.
                          MODIFICATIONS
       For health reasons, you are welcome to modify your fast.
      Remember, God isn't worried about the food you eat or the
            amount of days, but the content of your heart!

5         Every day, embrace the journey of your fast with worship!
          Even if you mess up or give up, start again in the next
          moment. Lean into the Spirit of God. This fast will be fulfilled
          by His strength and not our own.
                                                                                         11
                                  Mindset
                                  Matters:
                                  When fasting, the battle is in the mind. When we fast,
                                  we are changing habits, routines, and our own
                                  limiting beliefs. Adjusting your mindset to make it
                                  through starts with these 5 keys.
                                         DAILY FAITH
                                  1      Each day you rise out of bed, believe that you
                                         will get through that day with the Power of the
                                         Holy Spirit. Remind yourself about the
                                         greatness of God in you!
                                         SCRIPTURE
                                  2      Each day, take a scripture with you to work,
                                         class, or running errands to keep you from
                                         indulging. Scripture is your weapon.
                                          REMOVING TEMPTATION
                                  3       Choose to skip out of dinner dates, or going to
                                          places that food, for you, may be limited.
                                          Temptation is real, and you can beat it with
                                          wisdom. Use wisdom and take precaution.
                                          A MANTRA
                                  4       Have a little mantra you say to yourself when
                                          temptation gets too much. Things like "my
                                          better self is waiting on me", "my family is
                                          waiting on me", or "my purpose is waiting on
                                          me". Saying reminders to yourself will help you
                                          stay encouraged.
Remember:
                                          PRAYER
Jesus said "The flesh is weak ,
but the Spirit is Willing".
                                  5       This is a HUGE weapon. When you are hungry,
                                          tempted or wanting to give up. pray boldly and

weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on

              RESTING
  6           During fasting, it is good to make time to rest, relax, and
              have some "you time". Do something you love and allow that
              to be communion with God. This will help you recharge
              during your fast. Rest your mind, body, and soul.
