EZRA PROCLAIMS A FAST
Ezra was a scribe who studied, obeyed, and taught the word of God to the Israelites. Ezra felt called of God to leave Babylon to lead the Jews back to Jerusalem, returning to their homeland where he would teach them God's law. God moved King Artaxerxes heart to give Ezra and the Jews his blessing to go, sending many valuables with them. Ezra told the king that his gracious God would protect them. While camping at the Ahava Canal before setting out to Jerusalem, Ezra proclaimed a fast.
Ezra and the Jews humbled themselves before God asking Him for protection and a safe journey for them and their children. Scripture says Ezra was ashamed to ask the King for soldiers to protect them and the valuables because he had stated that God's hand would protect them. He didn't want the king to think they had lost faith in God. Ezra knew that going to God collectively—in humility, fasting and prayer—would move the heart of God. The Result? They fasted and prayed about it and God answered their prayers!
Ezra was known for his Godly nature, study, and teaching of God's word, fasting, and prayer before the Lord and leadership. What can you incorporate into your life to follow Ezra's example?

We all know that there is power in prayer. Prayer is defined in several ways: it is how we praise and worship our glorious Lord and Savior; it is our most powerful weapon; our open door to communication with the living God; the vehicle to confess our sin; how to find God's will for our lives and one of the ways we can hear the voice of our precious Savior. It is not very often that we hear about fasting with prayer, either from the pulpit or in our conversations as a church community. Yet, the Bible has so much to say on this subject and so many wonderful accounts of deliverance, forgiveness, and miracles that happened when God's people did fast and pray together. This ten-day reading plan will focus on some of the Biblical accounts and show us the undeniable power and movement of God when His people humble themselves through fasting and prayer.
