JANUARY 2025 – Prayer and Fasting Guide
 
“Now may the Lord of peace Himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.”
 2 Thessalonians 3:16
 
 
Welcome to 21-Day Prayer and Fasting!
 
01/03/25 to 01/23/25
Fasting Daily: 6:00 AM to 6:00 PM
 

As we enter 2025, Victory House International Ministries is committed to a period of fasting and prayer from January 3rd to January 23rd. This time is essential for seeking divine guidance in our ministry and personal lives.

Our daily fast will take place from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., following the Daniel Fast principles of consuming fruits, vegetables, nuts, and water, as stated in Daniel 10:3. A food guide will be provided.

 Fasting and prayer are vital tools for this season, as emphasized in Mark 9:29: “This kind can come forth by nothing but by prayer and fasting.” When we commit to these practices, God promises to respond and reveal profound truths.

 We also invite you to join us in our time of “Praying Through The Nations.”
 

We have two specific prayer times scheduled:

Third Watch Exhortation & Prayer Hour: Every Friday at midnight EST. Join by dialing 218-632-0314 and using access code 355697#.

15-Minute Power Prayer: Ongoing in 2025, every Wednesday at noon and Thursday at 8 PM. Participate by calling 218-632-0314 and using access code 355697#.

 
We look forward to you joining us in prayer and fasting for a powerful start to the new year.
 
 
Please refer below to the 2025 Prayer Calendar and Daniel Fast Food Guide below.
 
WHY WE FAST:
Fasting is a spiritual discipline that involves dedicating time to pray and connect with the Lord, helping to deepen your commitment to your spiritual journey. It is not about earning favor or manipulating God; rather, it focuses on humbling ourselves and seeking His guidance.
 
For example, Daniel fasted for 21 days during times of distress, abstaining from meat and rich foods while consuming only fruits, vegetables, nuts, and water (Daniel 10:2–3). The Daniel Fast specifically involves refraining from meat, sweets, and bread and allows for drinking water, tea, or juice.
 
When done for spiritual reasons, fasting helps you sense God’s presence and become more attuned to His voice, as well as the guidance of the Holy Spirit. This practice emphasizes personal humility and sanctification instead of attempting to manipulate God.
 
Fasting is a sacred time dedicated to God, which allows for deeper engagement with His Word and a strengthened relationship with Him. We are interceding for you, seeking the Holy Spirit’s guidance, and expecting a mighty move from Him. We anticipate and cherish this time with the Lord.
 
The Bible says He rewards those who seek Him wholeheartedly (Hebrews 11:6).

REMINDER:
Commit to pray, whether at home or during lunch. If you have health issues, consult your doctor before changing your medication, diet, or hydration.
If you can’t observe a complete or Daniel fast, consider alternatives like abstaining from social media, TV, or favorite treats while dedicating more time to prayer (1 Corinthians 7:1–5). Always follow the Holy Spirit’s guidance.
