The Invitation

Highwaves Church, this is our moment.
For seven days we lay down food, distractions, and comfort.
We show up every night hungry for God.
We fast to weaken the flesh and awaken the fire.
We pray until heaven responds and the ground breaks open. Do not sit this one out.
Come expecting revival, breakthrough, and fresh outpouring. This is how we break new ground together.

​

First Gathering, this Sunday 5pm.

 

Fasting is a biblical command practiced by Moses, David, Elijah, Esther, Daniel, Paul, and Jesus Himself. Jesus said when you fast, not if you fast. Fasting humbles the flesh, sharpens the spirit, and positions us for revival and fresh outpouring.

Benefits of Fasting

  1. Helps Overcome Life’s Challenges

    • Fasting is a Biblical way to humble ourselves (Psalm 35:13; 69:10). When Esther faced the threat of her people’s destruction, she called for a fast (Esther 4:16). Ezra fasted for protection (Ezra 8:21-23). King Jehoshaphat proclaimed a fast when faced with overwhelming enemies (2 Chronicles 20:3-4). Through fasting, God’s people have received guidance, protection, and deliverance.

  2. Renews Our Connection with God

    • Jesus stated that His disciples would fast after He ascended to heaven (Mark 2:20). Fasting reignites our hunger for God’s presence, allowing us to hear His voice clearly and experience His nearness.

  3. Empowers Us for God’s Purpose

    • While many in the Old Testament fasted during crises, Jesus fasted at the beginning of His ministry to prepare for His calling (Matthew 4:1-2). Anna fasted as she interceded for the coming Messiah (Luke 2:36-38). Fasting isn’t only about seeking solutions; it’s also about aligning ourselves with God’s mission for our lives.

  4. Breaks the Power of the Enemy

    • In Matthew 17:21, Jesus explained that certain spiritual battles require both prayer and fasting. Fasting breaks chains of wickedness, lifts heavy burdens, and destroys yokes (Isaiah 58:6). It’s a powerful weapon in spiritual warfare.
