Global Bridegroom Fast
|
Can the friends of the bridegroom mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them … then they will fast.

The Global Bridegroom Fast (GBF) is a monthly global solemn assembly of believers in to Jesus for three days. We are calling believers worldwide to join together in prayer and fasting for revival, motivated by experiencing love for Jesus. This is a time when we are called to listen to God directly, not just the words of man. This is not an event but an entirely new lifestyle in the grace of God; we will continue in this fast until Jesus returns.
| Behold, darkness shall cover the earth and deep darkness the people; but the Lord will arise over you and His glory will be seen upon you. |
