Humble Ourselves Before Jesus in Fasting and Prayer: For the Harvest
Welcome to the Enrich Church 2026 Daniel Fast! This fast is specifically designed to align with our yearly church-wide Daniel Fast. Daniel humbled himself before the Lord in fasting and prayer to fulfill God’s Word for Israel through repentance, intercession, and obedience. In the same way, our corporate fast will establish God’s will for the harvest: salvations, baptisms, and the multiplication of disciples and churches. Fasting is expected by Jesus (Matthew 6:16) and corporate fasts are called by Kingdom leaders (Ezra 8:21-22).
The Daniel Fast
A Daniel Fast refers to the two types of fasts Daniel did in the Old Testament (Daniel 1:1-21 and 10:1-3). Daniel abstained from certain foods for specific periods of time to honor and seek God. A typical Daniel fast involves refraining from eating meat, dairy, breads, and sugars. In the same way, we can humble ourselves before God in fasting and prayer for specific purposes to bring breakthrough for the Kingdom.

The Daniel Fast 2026 will specifically focus on the theme of harvest. Please utilize the Daily Prayer Guide as a guide to direct your daily prayers as you fast.
Practical Tools
Successful fasting is about preparation - spirit, soul, body. The better food plan you have, the more successful you will be in your body. Mentally preparing yourself creates commitment and determination to finish well. Prayer goals and objectives prepare your spirit to seek Jesus through the fast for Kingdom breakthrough.
