Fast the World, Feast on God’s Presence and Word: 40 Days of Prayer and Fasting for America (March 22 – April 30, 2025)!
Thank you for you continuing to press in for revival with us! Let’s believe for a mighty move of God in five Montgomery schools, one in Atlanta (Thursdays, 7:50–8:10 AM—praying for a catalytic gospel movement and revival to sweep through the school), and campuses nationwide!
We’re also contending for the One Club vision—raising up four discipleship groups: 12 parents, 12 male students, 12 female students, and 12 teachers.
The male prayer/discipleship group is bearing fruit! Last Sunday, two young men joined the boys' group—both have been faithfully leading and praying for their school for over a year and a half. One regularly intercedes for the entire school’s salvation!
Another student, a committed Atlanta high school disciple, planned to join but was at the ER with his mom and stepdad, who was in severe pain. We prayed, and when we asked if the pain had decreased, he texted back, "Yes!" Praise God for healing!
This is also a critical hour for our nation! Crossroads is calling believers to 40 days of fasting and prayer for America (March 22 – April 30, 2025)—to humble ourselves, seek God, and cry out for His power to move!
Why We Fast
Fasting is about turning away from worldly distractions to feast on God’s presence and Word. His Kingdom is not about temporary pleasures but "righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit" (Romans 14:17).
"You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart." —Jeremiah 29:13"Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God." —Matthew 4:4

Liquids only
