Hi everyone. Well the fast is upon us. We are really excited about what the Lord has planned for England. He is pouring out His love here at IHOP and in other places around the states and I truly believe that we are on the cusp of a move of God that will travel around the globe, not based around one persons ministry but around the revelation of who God is and how He feels about us! Last night at the awakening, Wes Hall prayed for the UK, speaking with power and prophesying a great move of God and as he spoke it really resonated with what the Lord has been speaking to us about. We are genuinely so excited!
We mentioned a few weeks ago about reading through the New Testament over the course of the fast and a coupe of people have asked if we have some sort of plan so we figured here would be a good place to put it. The plan is as follows:

Hope you find that helpful.
We’ve been pretty quiet these last few weeks and it’s not been for any good reason. God has been touching and challenging us both in class and out of class and we are starting to put together some semblance of plans for when we return to Manchester. The journey we have started seems long and difficult but we have faith that God has put us on this road and His heart is for us.
Be blessed!
Hey guys hope you are well. I was wondering what you guys are sticking too in terms of foods, just read peanut butter is ok – surely that’s cheating – what do you guys think? I liked Michaels Twitter pic looks much better than what I’ve been eating!
Hi Tim. My “approved” food list is vegetables, fruit, nuts and pulses. I’ve also been having herbs and spices. My “unapproved” list includes, salt, meat, sugars, dairy and grains. There are lots of different variations of the Daniel fast on the internet, at IHOP they just do “no meat, no sweets” but we’ve been much stricter than that! I think the trick is to figure out what you want to include and exclude and then stick to that, regardless of how others are doing it. Becci’s been looking on daniel fast websites for recipe ideas.
So how are you finding the fast so far?
I saw Sarah’s pics of David’s birthday, he is getting big quick!!!
