The Power of Prayer and Fasting: 10 Secrets of Spiritual Strength

The hand-in-hand spiritual discipline of prayer and fasting is not a gimmick or a spiritual fad, although its neglect in recent decades makes it a new discovery for many Christians. Instead, as author Ronnie Floyd explains, prayer and fasting is a Scripture-ordained act of obedience—a means of humbling ourselves before God, drawing closer to Him, and making room for Him to speak and act in our lives.

This newly revised and updated edition of The Power of Prayer and Fasting offers fascinating firsthand stories of the difference prayer and fasting has made in Floyd’s life and others, compelling explanations of how this discipline works in a Christian’s life, practical guidance for those who have never fasted before, and finallly a stirring call to revival.

Ronnie Floyd has served since 1985 as senior pastor at First Baptist Church of Springdale in Springdale, Arkansas, where membership has grown to 16,000 and spawned a second campus, The Church at Pinnacle Hills. He also hosts Ronnie Floyd Winners, a weekly program seen worldwide on the Daystar Television Network. Ronnie and his wife, Jeana, have been married more than three decades and have two sons and three grandchildren.
