In light of war in the Middle East, this national fast urges all American Christians to abstain from food for 21 days (or a shorter fast if God leads). We will seek God together for a godly response on the part of American Christians, praying for peace in the US, Israel, and surrounding nations, as well as the conversion of many Jews and Muslims in the Middle East and in our nation, especially the universities where Christian Union Universities ministers.
Each person who signs up for this 21-day fast will receive an email devotional each day of the fast. Daily devotions will include biblical teaching, helping believers discern a godly response to current events and give guidance for how to pray.
How to fast? Each participant will choose what kind of fast to do, whether liquid only or eating one meal per day, but this is a time of abstinence from food, not refraining from something other than food, like TV, social media, etc. Ask God how you should fast, and please consult your doctor if you have any questions or concerns about fasting. Fasting is primarily a means of humbling our hearts to seek after God.

How will your life, your loved ones, and our country be different if we all seriously repent and return to God?

God's Next Move in America
America’s Christian heritage is among the greatest of all the nations in the world. God’s Kingdom has thrived here through the 1700s, 1800s, and 1900s, largely due to nationwide moves of God’s Spirit. We need another history-making move of God. By His sovereign grace, God ensures that we play a part in Heaven’s work. He draws near to us when we draw near to Him (James 4:8). We must ask, seek, and knock for an outpouring of His Spirit (Luke 11:5-13).
