40 Days of Fasting

40 days of Fasting & Praying  is a time where Pastoryan & Friends come together to preach, pray and to prophetically declare God's word over you. During this time we began our day with one hour morning prayer on zoom at 6:00 AM EST. Shortly after morning prayer we go on our youtube channel at 8:00 AM EST for morning devotional for one hour of empowerment. Lastly, we end our day at 9:00 PM EST with one hour of prayer and prophecy on Instagram and Tiktok.

During the 40 days of fasting we must refrain from certain habits as we pray and seek God for healing, deliverance, breakthroughs, signs and wonders.

Getting Practical with Prayer

Spending daily time with God requires some strong proactive decisions. Here are four important decisions to make that will impact your personal time with Him.

1. Set a daily appointment

Whether it is in the morning or on a lunch break or late in the evening, it’s important to set an appointment with God and then work to keep that appointment every day.

2. Set a place for prayer

Is there a place where you will have quiet and uninterrupted moments alone with God? We read that Jesus often went off to a solitary place where he prayed. He escaped the noise and the chaos of real life and created a quiet setting for his intimate moments with God.

3. Set a plan for your prayer time

I recommend starting your time in God’s word and concluding with a time of prayer. . It takes about ten minutes to read the assigned portion for the day. If you read every day, you will have read the entire Bible in one year.

If you spend 10 minutes reading God’s word and 20 minutes in prayer, you will have a strong start to a consistent and meaningful prayer life.

4. Expect Powerful results

God tells us to “approach his throne of grace with confidence” (Heb. 4:16). If you spend 30 minutes a day with God, you will never regret it. The intimate relationship that you will cultivate with the Lord will bring about positive changes in your life. Your attitude will improve, your relationships will flourish, your wisdom will increase, your temptations will decrease, and your confidence in God will grow.*

I am asking that God would bless your time with him in a mighty way and that you would grow to know him and his power as it is released in your world.
