21 Days of Prayer_Lockup

September 1-21, 2025

Join us as we set aside time to intentionally seek God in prayer through Prepare the Way.

We’re believing for Him to move in powerful ways: in our city, in our church, and in your life personally! We invite you to choose a one-hour time slot and commit to praying daily during that hour for 21 days, guided by our weekly calendar and prayer prompts.

Ways to Participate

While we are encouraging you to pray on your own and with your friends and family at home, we want to invite you to participate in all the gatherings on our Newbreak Church campuses throughout San Diego.

Learn About Fasting

The goal of fasting is to draw near to God. It helps us to reset our souls and renew us from the inside out.

The goal of fasting is to draw near to God.

It hits the reset button of our soul and renews us from the inside out.

Fasting enables us to celebrate the goodness and mercy of God. It prepares our hearts for all the good things God desires to bring into our lives. When deciding on a fast, we encourage you to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do.

Types of Fasts

Selective Fast

This type of fast involves removing certain elements from your diet. One example of a selective fast is the Daniel Fast, during which you remove meat, sweets, and bread from your diet and consume water and juice for fluids and fruits and vegetables for food.

Partial Fast

This fast is sometimes called the “Jewish Fast” and involves abstaining from eating any type of food in the morning and afternoon. This can either correlate to specific times of the day, such as 6:00 am to 3:00 pm, or from sunup to sundown.

Complete Fast

In this type of fast, you drink only liquids, typically water with light juices as an option.

Soul Fast

This fast is a great option if you do not have much experience fasting food, have health issues that prevent you from fasting food, or if you wish to refocus certain areas of your life that are out of balance. For example, you might choose to stop using social media or watching television for the duration of the fast and then carefully bring that element back into your life in healthy doses at the conclusion of the fast.

The timing of your fast is not as important as the strength of your focus on God as you fast.

We encourage fasting for 21 days each year in the month of January. This is part of our 21 Days of Prayer season. You may also choose to fast at other times during the year for your own spiritual development. It’s very typical to fast a single meal, a whole day, or three days or more.
