I think it's about time for another forum fast. Several of us have expressed prayer needs, and what better way to bring our needs before the Lord!
We need to establish a date. I think sometime next week. Maybe Tuesday? Lets talk it out, and express what day you would like it on, and what kind of fast you will be doing. Whether from food, or social media, or whatever it is as long as it's a sacrifice for God.
So! Lets figure out a date! :)

I am fasting all next week. And I love this idea!! from computer, phone, food, anything that is not of God. Great idea.
Japlace - 2/18/11 @ 4:09 PM
What are you gonna be fasting from? and well, not necessarily things that are not of God (for they shouldn't be there at any time) but things that keep you AWAY from God. :)
Do you have a day that you would like all of us to join in prayer and fasting with you?
Ariel - 2/18/11 @ 4:37 PM
that's what I meant lol, i'm terrible with words!
Tuesday works, I'm fasting from Sunday until next Sunday. I'm relying completely on God, and I need to clean up my life and forgive and such. I'm planning on eating only a small amount of fruit or veggies a day and water. Do you have any tips for fasting from food?
Japlace - 2/18/11 @ 4:54 PM
@George. Thanks man!
@Ariel. Thats not true! your blog is awesome! I was checking it out the other day when u mentioned it. Very well done writing!
Hmm, im not the best on Nutrition. (if thats what u r asking) Lets has PHBOI when he gets here. He'll know lol. I know you should drink lots of water. (but thats true in ANY instance)
Stephanie - 2/18/11 @ 4:54 PM
drink 100 % juice and chew gum - my church has done world visions 30-hour famine a couple of times and those two things were really helpful - plus the juice helps keep you hydrated and gives you some needed vitamins :) The gum just helps you to feel like you are chewing something, lol
Stephanie - 2/18/11 @ 5:05 PM
I think this is a good idea. God has been laying on my heart just a brokenness for quite a few specific people that I know who are just broken before God. I will probably have to pick a different day of the week though, I'm at school all day Tuesday so I need to eat and I dont usually have access to my computer until I get home anyways. I'll have to pray about it, but I may fast on Monday from social media (i.e. facebook, skype, c28, other chat things lol). Limit my computer use to homework purposes only. But, I have to pray about it specifically first. :)
Japlace - 2/18/11 @ 5:11 PM
Well, we haven't realllly decided on a date.
Ariel is fasting all week, and maybe George is willing to switch days if need be.
And we all can fast different things. :) lets talk it out!
I'm good with fasting from solid foods on Tuesday.
EDIT: lol, I now realize that my topic title sounds like we are fasting from C28. I meant it like a group or congregation fast for the entire forum to participate in :)
Stephanie - 2/18/11 @ 5:29 PM
oh, I know that you weren't talking about fasting from c28, but I am more or less addicted to all my social media (c28 included) so a day without it will be difficult for me, lol. :)
CraigSnedeker - 2/18/11 @ 5:34 PM
Not sure if I can do a food fast.. heh.. and my job is on the PC. barely getting enough money as it is (God provides of course!) but what ever day you pick I will most defiantly pray!
Ariel - 2/18/11 @ 6:07 PM
Thank you Japlace! That means a lot to me. Yes, there are many good parts of my life and God is SO good! But I also carry A LOT of resentment and grudges towards people that I need to get rid of. I'm also fasting in hopes that God will move in my friend's lives, because they NEED God, but they are very stubborn. I'm also fasting for confidence.
PutHisBloodOnIt - 2/18/11 @ 6:42 PM
Also I have a suggestion the day before the fast we should make another topic where everyone who needs prayer posts what they need prayer in and we write down everyones name and prayer need on the piece of paper and we carry this paper in our pocket and through the day take it out of our pocket when we are praying and present it to God, just a suggestion.
Ariel - 2/18/11 @ 6:51 PM
could we do that now actually? you guys could do another one next week for those who joined later on, but I want to be able to pray too while I'm fasting and won't be able to see it after tomorrow
Stephanie - 2/18/11 @ 7:11 PM
I like that Idea a lot PHBOI!
Ariel - 2/18/11 @ 7:32 PM
I also have an idea: for whichever day we do this, I think it would be cool to get a bunch of friends in on it. Just have one day of tons of people fasting, praising God and praying for others
Ariel - 2/18/11 @ 8:44 PM
I have quite a few friends joining in on this, so are we doing it on Tuesday? Just so i can let them know
Stephanie - 2/18/11 @ 8:53 PM
I definitely wont be able to join Tuesday. Its fine with me if you guys want to do it then, I will probably be doing my fast on Monday (or Wednesday or Friday are other days that it would be possible for me) Tuesday and Thursday are only undoable because what I am fasting from would not be a sacrifice on those days. :)
PutHisBloodOnIt - 2/18/11 @ 8:56 PM
If anyone who wants to do a 12 hour fast without solid food I would suggest taking a multi vitamin in the morning, followed by a glass of milk and or a protein shake, also v8 juices are great or you can get creative and make your own juice if you have a blender. Just make sure your getting protein, carbs in your liquids and the rest from your multi vitamin. Or some christian stores do sell fasting juices with all essintial vitamins and nutrients your body needs through the day. Any other questions or more detail just ask.
PutHisBloodOnIt - 2/18/11 @ 9:02 PM
Also if some have problems hydrating drink pedialite its way better than gatorade I actually drink it everyday during workouts, also peppermint candy or gum also help with cravings or hunger pangs.
Japlace - 2/18/11 @ 10:55 PM
Im thinking Tuesday. Sorry Stephanie :/
And yeah, thats a good idea, PHBOI! Either make a new topic, or have them put them in here and il keep a list updated
Miss Nicolette - 2/18/11 @ 11:15 PM
I am so stoked about this! I was actually planning on fasting tomorrow from facebook and other related sites, but I'll definitely fast with you guys on tuesday! =)
