My name is Aaron Hyslip I am part of Congregation Baruch Hashem in Glendale, Arizona. My congregation has been going through a series on the book of Acts. We have seen a growing of faith in the L-RD, but we felt like we needed an
extra push toward Him. We decided to do a fast for two weeks called the Dunamis Fast.
Dunamis is a Greek word, which means power, but not just any power, it’s the power of G-d. We see an example of this
in Acts chapter two, where the apostles were filled with the spirit, and spoke in tongues. The goal of the Dunamis Fast is, for two weeks, we can only eat fourteen food items (preferably healthy). Doing this helps us to die to our flesh. The other goal of the fast is to pray for the outpouring of the dunamis power in our lives, so we can represent Gd’s love to the world.
The fast has definitely strengthened my walk with the L-RD. I’ve been praying and reading the Bible more and more, and when people at my school ask why I’m doing this, it opens up a way for me to talk about my faith with them. I
encourage you to do something similar if not the same and you will see a definite change in your life whether it be big or small.
