PRAYER AND FAST CAMPS

The core area of the ministry is the hosting of Weekend Prayer and Fast camps including:

• Mixed Fast Camps - These camps are designed for both male and female, young and old. In these camps we often see families attending.

• Male Only Camps - As the name says, these camps catered for the male only 

• Female Only Camps - Over the years these camps continue to increase in numbers and have seen an increasing number of mothers and daughters as well as sisters attending.

• Youth Fast Camp - In 2010, the ministry hosted two - one day youth fast retreats. The first one in Trinidad and the second in Tobago. Since then, we have not had another. However, the ministry will refocus its attention once again on the youth as it launches its Youth Forum on March 14th, 2020.

Purpose of Fasting:

​

1. For Personal Holiness (To get closer to God).  Psalm 69: 10 "When I wept, and chastened my soul with fasting, that was to my reproach,"

 Matthew 5:4 "Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted."

​

​2.  To Hear From God.  Ezra 8:23 "So we fasted and besought our God for this: and he was intreated of us."

​

3.  To Set The Captives Free.  Isaiah 58: 6-7 "Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?  Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh?"

​

4.  To Receive Revelation.  Daniel 9:3 "And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:" Daniel 9:21-22 "Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.  And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding."

​

5.  They Fasted To Bind The Strong Man.  Isaiah 49: 24-25 "Shall the prey be taken from the mighty, or the lawful captive delivered?  But thus saith the Lord, Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken away, and the prey of the terrible shall be delivered: for I will contend with him that contendeth with thee, and I will save thy children."

​

Types of Fasting:

​

Normal Fast (Matthew 4:2) "And when He has fasted forty days and forty nights, He was afterward an hungered."  The significance is obvious in this first mention of fasting in the New Testament.  Jesus fasted and was hungry afterwards.  It signifies abstinence from all food, solid or liquid, but not from water.

 

*Fasting requires discipline.  It is very important therefore that if you think that you do not have the discipline to maintain a weekend fast then you should reconsider beginning.
