As we prepare for 21 days of fasting, I wanted to give you some information and ideas on how you might fast during these days.
The Daniel fast comes from Daniel 10:2 "at that time I, Daniel, mourned for three weeks. I ate no choice foods; no meat or wine touched my lips; and I used no lotions at all until the three weeks were over."
This fast does require a little prep in making sure you have the right kinds of foods in the house. For a list of foods click on the link below:
There is also a little more backdrop into the Daniel fast at this link:
I hope this is helpful!
More soon.

P.S. One favorite story I've heard regarding the Daniel fast was about a man who felt the Lord had asked him to do the fast for 2 years. He was from DC and was fasting for LIFE (against abortion). As he neared the end of year two, he was preparing himself for a juicy steak on January 1st. He had asked the Lord if he wanted him to continue that the Lord would give him a sign...the sign came. He was invited to a New Years Eve party by a friend who introduced him to another friend... that friends name...yep you guessed it... DANIEL FAST. Thus he began year three! OH MY!
