70-Day Hosea 10:12 Fasting Guide

The purpose of this guide is to direct our focus during this 70-Day fast as we seek the face of God. This is not simply something for us to fulfil dutifully out of obligation or requirement. It is not just something “to do” over the course of this fast.

We want to engage our heart with the LORD and allow the Holy Spirit to speak, direct, search and steer our hearts towards His heart, will and agenda for all of us, individually and corporately.

Psalm 139:23–24 should be the spirit behind this fast with the ultimate goal of contending for a tender and responsive heart unto the LORD, a revived and vibrant prayer life, and the sharpening of our prophetic spirit. The heart of the fast is to ENGAGE God, to EMBRACE His heart and plan, and to ENTER into the fullness of His plan for this season.
