Daystar Church Fast Overview Fasting is a spiritual discipline designed to better connect us with God. At the beginning of 2010, we'll take 21 days, to deepen our relationship with God and center ourselves on what God is going to do in our church and in our lives this next year. We are praying that hundreds of people will come to faith in Christ this next year and that each family in our church see God’s hand move mightily in their lives. Who: Everyone is invited to participate When: Sunday, January 3rd at 6 pm: Begin the Fast. Sunday, January 24th at 6 pm: Break the Fast! What: There are many different ways to fast. Generally speaking, a biblical fast is seen as doing without food items as a sacrifice to grow closer to God. Ways that you may choose to fast are: Liquid Fast (going without food and only having liquids for 21 days); Daniel Fast (a partial fast eliminating certain foods); those with medical conditions may consider giving up something else for this period of time (TV, internet, etc). The main thing to remember is that when we give up something for God, we should always replace it with more time with Him in prayer and worship. The fast is of little value to your spiritual life if you do not focus on your prayer and worship time with God throughout. Daniel Fast Facts: There are multiple online resources available on the Daniel Fast. One thing you’ll notice is that there are many ways to do the fast. This is, in part, due to the lack of clarity in the bible as to exactly what Daniel did during his fast. However, to keep it simple, we have included good information and resources to help you. This fast will require preparation as most meals will be made from scratch. We will have some recipes available online. Resources: www.christ-web.com/missions/farho/daniel-fast www.danielfast.wordpres.com/ www.hacres.com/recipes/recipes.asp
Twice in the book of Daniel a fast is mentioned. Once is for 21 days and the second for 10 days. We are asking you to join the staff in the 21 day fast but if circumstance won’t allow the full fast, we ask that you would set aside 10 days during the fast to join us in prayer and fasting.

Common FAQ’s What about prepared foods? Read the labels of all prepared foods. Remember the Daniel Fast is sugar-free and chemical-free. So, if you use any canned fruits, vegetables, packaged foods, or prepared sauces you must read the label to be aware about just what is in there. What about pasta? Make sure the label says whole grain pasta with no additives (watch for sugar). Whole grain pasta offers 7 grams of protein per serving (3/4 cup of dried pasta). I know it says raw, unsalted nuts, but what about roasted nuts? The goal would be to stick to raw, unsalted nuts. But these are harder to find so in a pinch just make sure you get plain roasted, unsalted nuts with no preservatives. How do I get enough protein in my diet while on the fast? The following are protein-rich foods that are allowed on the Daniel Fast… almonds, sunflower seeds, lentils, quinoa, brown rice, split peas, whole grains, and tofu. What kind of peanut butter is allowed? A natural peanut butter with no additives…watch for sugars including molasses. Smucker’s creamy natural peanut butter has nothing but peanuts in it. What about popcorn? Corn is listed in the vegetables to eat list. You can use a pot on the stove…here is a recipe. 1) Put two tbsp. of olive oil in the bottom of a large pot. 2) Add enough popcorn to cover the bottom of the pan. 3) Turn heat to medium high. Look for the first popcorn kernel to pop. 4) Put the lid on the pot. Using potholders shake the pot over the burner. 5) Continue shaking until you no longer hear kernels popping. Remove from heat. How can I identify whole grain foods? Typically if the ingredient lists "whole wheat", "rolled oats", or "whole corn" as the first ingredient, the product is a whole grain food item. Another way to identify whole grains in the foods you eat is to look in the nutritional facts information and check if the food item contains dietary fiber. If it contains a significant amount, it most likely contains whole grains. "Wheat flour" is not a whole grain and therefore does not indicate a whole grain product. What about salad dressing? Olive oil and lemon or lime are an option. Do I need to eat organic foods while on the fast? No, but it is suggested because organic foods are produced without the use of feed or fertilizer of plant or animal origin and without employment of chemically formulated fertilizers, growth stimulants, antibiotics, or pesticides. What about bread? We are recommending the Ezekiel bread found in the freezer section of your grocery/health food store. How much can I eat? As long as they are the appropriate foods, we are recommending eating until satisfied with no limits. Breakfast Recipes

Okay, there are going to be times on the Daniel Fast when you need a quick meal. In fact, when you prepare for the Daniel Fast, you’ll want to stock up on a few of these items so you have the on hand. 1 can organic tomato soup (check the label for ingredients) 1 can white beans 1 cup mixed vegetables (frozen) Season to taste (thyme, mixed Italian, cilantro, parsley, whatever you like) Add everything to the pan at the same time. Heat until the vegetables are the consistency you like them (usually between 5 and 10 minutes). Serve! Serves 2-4 depending on size of serving! Vegetable Stock A good vegetable stock is useful in the Daniel Fast. Vegetable stock is an excellent substitute for chicken or beef stock. Makes 4 cups of vegetable stock 2 large onions, cut into large chunks 2 medium carrots, scrubbed but not peeled, cut into large chunks 3 stalks of celery, remove and discard all leaves, cut into large chunks 1 whole bulb of garlic, peel each clove, but do not chop 1 bay leaf Cut all the vegetables into large pieces. Place all ingredients into a large pot. Cover with cold water.
Turn the stove to a high temperature, and bring the stock to a quick simmer. Once the water comes to boil, turn heat to low. Allow the vegetables to simmer for an hour. Any longer than an hour and the vegetables will begin to turn mushy and begin to lose all their flavorful vibrancy, leaving a wilted taste to the stock. Strain the stock. It should be light in color, sweet in flavor and translucent. Now you can use the stock in place of chicken or beef stock. You may need to increase seasoning when replacing one of these more flavorful stocks. ** Season the stock with other herbs such as parsley, thyme or rosemary. You can also use ginger if you plan to use the stock for an Asian recipe. You an also caramelize the onions and carrots before adding them to the stock for a richer and more flavorful stock. Roasting the vegetables before adding them to the stock also makes for a different flavor in the stock. Greek Vegetable Stew 2 tablespoons oil
1 pound green string beans, broken in half
2 cups celery leaves Lightly brown onions in a hot skillet in 2 tablespoons oil. Add oregano & garlic. Cook 1 minute. Add 4 cups water and tomatoes. Cook 10 minutes. Add remaining ingredients.
