PRAYER

A HOUSE OF PRAYER

 

Jesus quoted the prophet Isaiah when He said, "My house will be called a house of prayer for all nations."

It was during a time of prayer that God gave Pastor Brian the vision for Summit Church.

Because our church came from a season of prayer, it has always been a value to keep prayer as a priority.

FASTING

 

Fasting is one of the least known disciplines in the church, but it is a practice mentioned both in the Old and New Testament of the Bible and by Jesus Himself, and it has incredible power for our lives today.

 

Fasting disconnects us from the world.

Fasting isn’t about punishing yourself because God wants you to suffer, rather it’s about intentionally disconnecting from worldly things for a season so you can hear from God and experience the full life He has for you.

 

The goal of fasting is to draw nearer to God. Biblical fasting always has to do with eliminating distractions for a spiritual purpose; it hits the reset button of our soul and renews us from the inside out. It also enables us to celebrate the goodness and mercy of God and prepares our hearts for all the good things God desires to bring into our lives. Remember, your personal fast should present a level of challenge, but it is very important to know your body, your options, and, most importantly, to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do.
