The Fast: Rediscovering Jesus' Pathway to Power

Rate this book
To read this book is to read a story. Yes, partly my story, but primarily it’s the story of Jesus and his original forty-day Jesus Fast that released the original Jesus anointing for evangelism and harvest. It is also a prophetic summons calling for a global reenactment and recovery of Jesus’ original pattern and pathway leading to power from on high. This is a book of dreams and, if I may say so, of God’s dreams, dreams of a new world where the Bride of Christ is beautified, where Satan is cast down, where the Kingdom comes, where evangelism is empowered, and where shouts of joy fill the streets because the Spirit of the Lord has come to heal every disease and sickness. This is a book about the Jesus Fast that will open the heavens and precipitate the latter rain. Let us all go up to the Mountain of the Lord. Let the earth go up in the global Jesus Fast.

Gracias a Dios por este libro, gracias por personas con Lou Engle, gracias por todo aquel que está respondiendo a esta convocatoria del Espíritu al ayuno de Jesús. Definitivamente el mejor libro sobre el Ayuno que he leído. Si sientes que Dios te esta llamando al ayuno definitivamente debes leer este libro, te animo a que subamos esta montaña juntos. Vale la pena, sigamos los pasos de Jesús!

Los libros de Lou son esos shots que encienden e impulsan el corazón, necesitamos entender el poder del ayuno y llevarlo a la practica para ver transformaciones en todos los niveles. El ayuno prepara nuestros corazones para escuchar y ver lo que Dios tiene planeado para nosotros. Este libro es una invitación a usar esta llave poderosa del Reino, el ayuno.

My heart has been stirred

I joined the Jesus Fast in the begin of January when God brought me to Lou Engle's website. I didnt know if I would join-in but figured I'd go ahead and sign up.

When I saw this book online a few weeks later I knew I had to get it. I've not been able to put it down. It has awakened something inside of me that I never could have imagined.

If you have a heart to pray and fast, or would like to begin prayer and fasting then this book will stir you. I've only done one real fast in my life (other than doing intermittent fasting for diet).

I knew something big was coming this year after 3 days into the new year, and this book has allowed me to see what direction I need to take in order to see that breakthrough.

My hope and prayer is that this book will get into every believers hand and rise up multi generations of prayer and fasting this year (and the years to come) for breakthrough all over the world in every sphere of society.

Explanation and Fantastic Fast Testimonies

I started the 2022 Daniel Fast drinking fruit and vegetable juices and am asking for a deeper walk with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I am praying for workers to be thrust out by the Lord, family reconciliation, confirmation of a relationship I am in to continue or fall away. I want a deeper relationship with Jesus and to receive dreams or visions.

I read Brother Engle's Digging the Wells of Revival and this is a significant improvement in terms of both content and teaching. Brother Engle's sincerity is unquestionable, but where many in Pentecostalism tend to lose the good in their good-intentions, I believe Brother Lou is onto a real prophetic trail. Lord, may it be so!

Awesome book. It's a great encourager and reminder of the fruits bourne through a lifestyle of prayer. Indeed History awaits for the manifestation of the true sons of God. Whilst going through the current confusion of the day it's only those who set themselves apart to seek God that shall be able to give answers this generation is asking.

This book is a fire lighter!

I saw great hunger and a new faith arise in my heart as I went through this book. Lou’s stories will awaken the church to change the world through the power of prayer and fasting.

Pantallazo de lo que despiertan los diferentes tipos de ayunos. No puntualiza de qué maneras hacerlos ni recomendaciones de cantidad de días ni tipos; no es su objetivo, sólo lo poderoso que resulta es el ayuno para la iglesia y las generaciones
