You more than likely know about prayer, but what about fasting? You may have heard about it or read about it. You may have even practiced it or at least had a desire to.

After returning from the mission field in India for another visit to the US, I was presented with a copy of a prayer guide written by the wife of my Pastor, Sis. Rosemary Lester. Our home church was nearing completion of a time of prayer and fasting inspired by her devotional guide, "One Holy Passion." Immediately, I recognized this material as something that could be as inspirational and meaningful to the church in India as it was to my home church family. I edited the guide, added the material by Dr. Cooper and Bill Bright, had it translated into Tamil, printed, and distributed. When Sis. Rosemary visited Chennai in January, 2007 I presented a copy to her. Because Rosemary Lester wrote this Daily Devotional Guide to speak to the members of our church during our special 40-day period of prayer and fasting leading up to Easter Sunday, 2006, it was my task as Editor to preserve as much of the original content as possible, while making "One Holy Passion" meaningful and relevant to as many people as possible. As I reworked this material, I could sense the love and compassion of Rosemary for the Lord and for His body, the church on every page. Those who use this guide for strength, direction, and exhortation will, I believe, find Rosemary's loving words echoing the Holy Spirit's voice encouraging them to persevere to the end of their own 40-day spiritual journey. Although "One Holy Passion" was originally intended for a specific church to use for a specific period of time, it can now be used by any individual or group and can be started any time of the year. In addition to the Daily Devotional Guide I included in this work the same supplemental instructional material that was in the Tamil to help believers understand the discipline of prayer and fasting from the Christian context. Finally, I added more quotes from respected Christians on the subject of prayer and fasting, and some information on the people, culture and religions from around the world. The final result is what you now hold in your hand. May this prayer and fasting guide lead you on your own personal spiritual journey and at the same time lead you to pray and fast for missions and missionaries around the world. May God bless all who surrender themselves in "One Holy Passion" for His glory. Frederick Osborn India Field Director Bibles for All Ministries

God created the human body as a finely tuned instrument of enormous power, but it requires fuel to operate. To make sure the body gets enough fuel, God created in us an appetite for food, which we call hunger. So why would we ever ignore our hunger and choose not to eat? Going without food for spiritual reasons is called fasting, a spiritual dis...

Prayer is central to Christ's teaching on how the kingdom of God advances through the ages. Jesus instructed His followers to pray for His will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. Prayer is the key to the body of Christ and all its activities. This book guides you to dedicate yourself for 40 days to pray for God's intervention in the 'spheres of influence'. People are impacted by bases of power in our societies, often called 'mountains' or 'spheres' of influence. Each sphere has 'gatekeepers' who exert control over guiding 'truths' that the population sees. The spiritual forces of the enemy of God, as well as human desires, pull people away from God's perfect plans for our communities and natural environments. Ask God to intervene and transform the people and culture in the 'spheres' around you; to glorify Him, and to be of total benefit to all living and working in them.
