4 A Word from Pastor Waller Then Jesus came near and said to them, All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe everything I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age. Matthew 28:18-20 Once we are saved, our charge is to go and help others develop in the faith or to make disciples. However, in order to help others, become disciples, we must first be disciples ourselves. I do not take lightly my responsibility as your Pastor to guide you, encourage you, and give you tools to grow deeper in God. One way that we grow deeper in God is to worship Him through fasting and prayer. During this Lenten season, the 40-day period between Ash Wednesday and Resurrection Sunday, I will again lead you in the spiritual discipline of fasting. Lent is a time when Christians customarily fast in identification with the 40 days that Jesus fasted in the wilderness (Matthew 4). Lent is also a season for self-examination and repentance. We fast so that we change. Then, we help others to change. It s about cultivating community! We have developed a number of tools to help you on this 40-day spiritual journey. You will hear much more about weekly classes, literature, web-based resources, recipes, and conference calls for prayer and encouragement. It is my prayer that we all emerge from this Lenten season empowered to impact the community in a new and more effective way. Finally, Lent prepares us for that great celebration of the resurrection. Despite our human failings, God loved us so much that He made a way for us to be reconciled to Him through Christ s death and resurrection. I look forward to closing out the Lenten season with you here at the Tab as we celebrate together as one body God s extraordinary love for all people! Shabach, Reverend Dr. Alyn E. Waller, Senior Pastor Enon Tabernacle Baptist Church 4

5 Welcome 2018! What a year we just experienced. And while our individual experiences during 2017 are varied, as a country it seems we often had to remind ourselves that God is still on the throne, regardless of the events we experienced. We trust and believe God! As we prepare for our 40 Days of Prayer & Fasting, we know that beyond our personal commitment, there is power available to us the power of the Holy Spirit who indwells every believer. Whether this is your first year participating in the fast, or if you ve participated every year, there will be times of challenge that He will enable us to overcome. Set aside a time each day to spend in God s presence, read His Word and pray for your family, your church family, our country and other concerns as God leads you. And know that the Holy Spirit will help us to honor our commitment to participate in the 40 Days of Prayer & Fasting. Don t give up even if you fall short one day. Start afresh the next day. And, avoid comparing your journey with anyone else s what matters most is your personal desire to honor God with your sacrifice. Our book for this year s 40 Day Journey is On Calvary s Hill by Max Lucado. This book contains daily readings that focus our attention on Jesus journey to the cross. From the Road to Jerusalem, to the Cross, to the Empty grave, each day s reading will bring us closer to that great revelation JESUS DIED FOR US! He took our sins that we may have eternal life, be reconciled to our Heavenly Father and have the abundant life that God desires for each of His children. And as we replicate his fast, we do it with joy and an attitude of gratitude. Hallelujah! Let s experience our 40 Days of Prayer & Fasting through the power of the Holy Spirit as we journey together! 5

6 Preparing for the Journey Know that the fasting is a time for prayer and communicating with the Lord. Setup a time and a place to be alone with the Lord. During the 40-Day Journey, you should be reading and journaling your experience. Is there something you are praying for? During this journey we will be praying corporately as a church and individually. Submit fully to the Lord; begin a regimen of daily prayer, develop a personal relationship with the Lord. The Daniel Fast eating plan is like a vegan diet, based on the two accounts of the Prophet Daniel s experience. (Daniel 1:8 and Daniel 10) Prepare yourself spiritually. Prepare physically: as we approach the beginning of this time of fasting and prayer it is a promising idea to start eliminating those things that are not to be consumed during this time (sugar, soda, coffee, tea, and meat etc.) If you have health issues or concerns, be sure to consult your health care professional before you begin the fast or make any major dietary change. Your doctor may need to modify to accommodate your dietary needs. Drink plenty of water- water helps our bodies to detoxify and it is a source of energy. Prepare weekly menus- planning your meals helps you to be organized and you may be less likely to indulge in those things that are not Daniel Fast friendly. Look for new recipes using the internet or ask other people for meal ideals, share your recipes with others. Create simple tasteful recipes. As you plan your meals and eat your food, keep in mind that the definition of a fast is to deny food for a spiritual purpose. Go to the market and produce store and gather your ingredients for your meals. It is good to prepare your own meals from scratch, but if you find that you do not have the time, or you don t have all your ingredients, we have a list of Daniel Fast friendly restaurants readily available for you in this journal. Journal your time and dig deep in the word and connect with God. Don t focus on food rather focus on God. Please visit for more Daniel Fast information.

Prepare dressing with lemon juice, 1 tsp of maple syrup and pour over prepared apple slices in a bowl (keeps apples from turning brown). Mix everything up with your salad tongs or hands.
