Blessings Saints of God,

As the Senior Pastor of this house, I declare this time of fasting and sacrifice to seek the Lord for guidance and provision for 2026. We continue to invite the Spirit and power of God in prayer for spiritual revival, healing, deliverance, and fruitfulness in Perfecting Unity Church. Let our hearts and minds be focused on the will of God for ourselves, families, community, and nation. We are his watchmen, remnant, and body. My prayer is that the Lord take us ever deeper and provide to us every spiritual gifting needed through Christ Jesus.
I ask that you join me in this consecration that it may be a time of personal revival, deliverance, healing and renewal to the call. I have attached additional information concerning this time of fasting and consecration for your guidance and direction.
May God prosper you in 2026!
Your servant in Christ,
Micah Bibby
Senior Pastor Perfecting Unity Church
14-Day Consecration Fast Instructions and Guidelines
Your goal in fasting is to become closer to God by voluntarily denying the demands of your flesh. Increase your prayer life during this time. Study the Scriptures with a new intensity. When the fast is over, you should have a new spiritual strength from overcoming the cravings that usually control your life and keep you from dedicating yourself to God.
Biblical model: Jesus fasted in the wilderness (Matthew 4, etc.) and spoke of the necessity of fasting for believers. Fasting was a normal part of early church life. Fasting is one way we respond to the appeal made throughout the Scriptures to die to our self-will and not to accommodate the desires of the flesh.
Overview of the fast: This 14-Day Consecration Fast drastically restricts normal food intake by cutting away many of the foods you commonly eat to satisfy your appetite. During the fast, there will be a sense of hunger much of the time and a sense of sacrifice even when we eat.
It is recommended that you restrict the amount of food you eat in the days just before the beginning of the consecration, leaving yourself a little hungry. This will start to condition your body for the fast.
Accountability and support groups: You will probably be most successful with this fast if you make yourself accountable to at least one other person during this fast. You may want to form a group of from five to seven people who meet occasionally or talk by phone. Encourage one another. If someone falls and eats the wrong foods, do not condemn them. Help them start again. Walk in love and mercy.
Restrict television and entertainment. It will be difficult for you to consecrate yourself if you feed yourself on television, movies, and video games during this time.
If this is your first fast, you may not be able to endure as many restrictions as someone else who fasts frequently.
Potential side effects: You may experience moderate to severe headaches for the first day or two as your body rids itself of caffeine, salt, sugar, and various impurities.
Important exceptions: Anyone with a medical condition related to eating or under the
treatment of a physician must consult their doctor. Children, especially small children, will have special needs that must be considered. Under these conditions, find some sacrifice in the area of food that can be made without endangering health.
In addition, if you have extreme difficulty with the fast, such as impairment of your ability to work at your job, you may have to make adjustments. This is wisdom. Seek the Lord and discuss it with the Pastor Bibby to find alternatives. God’s kingdom isn’t a matter of what you put in your stomach . . . It’s what God does with your life as He sets it right, puts it together, and completes it with joy. Your task is to single-mindedly serve Christ (Romans Chapter 14).
One Restricted Meal per Day – January 6th thru 12th
This one meal will be consumed after 5 p.m. each day. During this time meals can consist of: POULTRY OR FISH [to be baked, steamed or grilled] STARCH [rice, pasta, potatoes, etc.] SOUP, SALAD, BREAD, JUICE, COFFEE or TEA).

Tips for Success
- Make your meals somewhat lighter for a few days leading up to your fast.

- Spend time with God and in studying the Bible.
- Envision and create goals and work on plans to enrich and improve the quality of your life and devotion to God.

Warnings
