In this powerful lesson, Apostle Dr. Dawn Nichol-Manning draws insights from the Book of Joel to teach us the vital importance of fasting and prayer in the life of every believer. We'll learn how fasting crucifies our flesh and cleanses us to become clear pipelines that God can freely flow through to accomplish His purposes in the earth.

Dr. Dawn will exhort us that in these end times, it's crucial for ministers and all believers to sanctify fasts, call solemn assemblies, and gather together to cry out to God. She'll remind us that titles and positions mean nothing without putting in the spiritual work of fasting, praying fervently, and deeply studying God's Word.

We'll be convicted that we can no longer afford to have a casual, "pity-pat" walk with God, but must pursue true intimacy with Him and take our spiritual assignments seriously. Dr. Dawn will inspire us to fast and pray not just for breakthroughs, but to put God first and clearly hear His voice in an age of increasing confusion and chaos.

The Call to Spiritual Leaders to Mourn and Fast

Joel 1:13-14 Gird yourselves, and lament, ye priests: howl, ye ministers of the altar: come, lie all night in sackcloth, ye ministers of my God: for the meat offering and the drink offering is withholden from the house of your God. Sanctify ye a fast, call a solemn assembly, gather the elders and all the inhabitants of the land into the house of the Lord your God, and cry unto the Lord.

• God is calling ministers to mourn, fast, and cry out to Him

• Spiritual leaders must lead the way in repentance and seeking God

• Titles mean nothing without true consecration and spiritual work

Practical Application: As believers, we must take our spiritual callings and assignments seriously. Pursue intimacy with God through fasting, prayer, and immersing yourself in His Word so you can lead others by example.

The Vital Importance of Fasting

• Fasting crucifies the flesh so the Holy Spirit can flow through us unhindered

• Fasting brings clarity, revelation, visions, and direction from God

• The power of fasting, combined with fervent prayer, gets God's attention

Practical Application: Make fasting a regular part of your spiritual life. Start with shorter fasts and build up to more extended periods as God leads. Remember, the purpose of fasting is putting God first, not trying to manipulate Him.

Gathering for Solemn Assemblies

• God's people must gather together to fast, pray, and seek His face

• Solemn assemblies are a time of collective repentance and crying out to God

• In the end times, it's crucial to assemble together and encourage one another

Practical Application: Make gathering with other believers to pray and seek God a priority. Be willing to set aside personal convenience to join in solemn assemblies as spiritual leaders call for them.

Being a Pure Pipeline for God's Purposes

• God is looking for clear pipelines He can flow through

• Fasting and prayer purify us and keep us sensitive to God's leading

• We can't afford a casual, "pity-pat" Christian walk in these end times

Practical Application: Consistently crucify your flesh through fasting so you can be a pure vessel for God's purposes. Stay in the Word and prayer so you remain sensitive to the Holy Spirit's leading. Take your Kingdom assignment seriously.
