EVERY DAY:

• Commit: to a full daily fast until 6 PM

• If this is your first time fasting, consider starting with a shorter goal, such as fasting until 1 PM or 3 PM.

• Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Minor adjustments to your fast for health purposes are acceptable. If for health reasons it is difficult or not advisable to refrain from food entirely, consider following the Daniel Fast as an excellent alternative.

• Engage daily: Participate in the daily devotions and devotional readings to stay spiritually connected.

• Break your fast wisely: End your fast each day with a small, healthy meal choice to ease back into eating.

• Reduce or eliminate sugar: Minimize or cut out sugar from your meals during the fasting period.

• Set boundaries for late-night eating: Avoid eating past 11 PM whenever possible.

• Limit social media: Reduce social media time to 45 minutes or less each day to stay focused on spiritual growth.

• Join Morning Glory: Start your day with prayer each weekday morning at 6 AM via Zoom or phone.

DURING THE ENTIRE 21 DAYS

• Reduce your “screen time” (such as time spent on social media, Netflix, Prime, Hulu, other television, phones, etc.) Consider eliminating some activity that will be sacrificial and...
• Instead, increase frequency of meaningful devotions, times of meditation, faith-filled podcasts, prayer, and Bible reading throughout each day. Aim for these devotional moments for at least 3 times a day.
• Stay hydrated; drinking water and/or unsweetened tea is encouraged.

FASTING FOR KIDS

For children, fasting for food may not always be practical or even advised. Help your child choose something that they really love and that they typically use every day. In order for them to experience the feeling of “hunger” for the thing they sacrificed, it needs to be something they will really miss. It may be their favorite snack, their favorite TV show, or their favorite game or toy. Once you have chosen an item for them to “fast” from, help them figure out how they will replace the item they sacrificed with time with God instead. Maybe during the time they would typically have their snack or watch their favorite show, you can read the Bible or pray together instead.
