In January 2012, I held the first online Daniel Fast through my website. More than 2,000 people signed up to participate. Since then, the fast has grown into an annual event for nearly 6,000 believers from around the world. The Lord continues to call men and women to this three-week fast, and every year God does incredible things among us. That’s why I’m more excited than ever about the next online fasting event.
You’re invited to join the January 2018 Daniel Fast, which will be held January 7-27, 2018. The theme for the January 2018 Daniel Fast is “Lift Up Your Voice.” Throughout the fast, we’ll take an in-depth look at the story of King Jehoshaphat in my new eBook, Lift Up Your Voice: 21 Daily Devotions for Your Daniel Fast (available Kindle, NOOK, and as a PDF). We’ll see how Jehoshaphat and the people of Judah responded to an unexpected trial and how God responded to their cries for help. Download your copy of the Lift Up Your Voice eBook today so you’re ready to go on January 7th!
If you’ve never done the fast but are considering it, you should get a copy of The Ultimate Guide to the Daniel Fast. It provides everything you need for a successful fast, including tips on how to prepare, 100+ recipes, meal plans, and 21 daily devotions.
When you sign up for the January 2018 Daniel Fast, you will receive:
- Weekly emails before the fast to help you prepare (starts December 18th).
- Weekly emails during the fast that will include devotions, fasting tips, new Daniel Fast recipes, daily prayer points, and other helpful resources. Emails will be sent each Sunday.
- Daily videos throughout the fast to encourage you.
Also, you can choose from two different tiers of participation:
1) Everything in the above list PLUS a PDF copy of my new eBook, Lift Up Your Voice: 21 Daily Devotions for Your Daniel Fast (PDF will be emailed to you within 24 hours of registration payment).
2) Everything in the above list without the PDF version of my eBook. You may select this option if you wish to download the Kindle or NOOK version of Lift Up Your Voice. Also, if you’re going through the Daniel Fast for the first time and using The Ultimate Guide to the Daniel Fast, you may decide to use the 21 devotions from that book instead. You can always purchase the eBook version of Lift Up Your Voice at another time.
Note: The PDF version of Lift Up Your Voice may also be purchased separately without registration (see below under January 2018 Daniel Fast Resources).
Registration has ended for this event.

The January Daniel Fast is the best way to begin the New Year. Decide now to seek the Lord for wisdom, direction, and favor in 2018. Decide now to lift up your voice to the Lord!

Thank you, Tania! I’m thankful you’re fasting and praying!
Spiritual
Strength, Healing both body and soul!
Yes! Amen!
I think I have signed up below. Can you please confirm? My name is Peggy Reyes and email is preyes3636@gmail.com We are starting a 21 day fast and prayer at our church in Branson MO. Some of us will be doing the Daniel Fast together. Thank you!
Yes, Peggy, you’re registered, and you should have already received an email with your PDF copy of Lift Up Your Voice. Let me know if you haven’t. I’m so glad to hear your church is starting off 2018 in prayer and fasting. May the Lord unify your hearts through His Holy Spirit and empower you to do His will!
Gm , I’m a little confused ..are we paying for the fast this year..? I have been following you for about 5 years now , I am trying to register but do we have to pay . I’m not working 😔 Tiffiny
Hi, Tiffiny! Yes, this year’s fast is a little different. The decision to charge a small fee was a difficult one. It wasn’t impulsive or flippant in any way. In the last eight years, I have never charged for any of the resources I’ve provided. Everything on my website has been completely free (with the exception of my books). I haven’t accepted any advertising, either. That’s the way I wanted it. But this past summer, I really sensed that changes were coming. God was moving me in a different direction. Even though Ultimate Daniel Fast is a ministry, it costs money to run it. There are expenses every month that need to be covered, not to mention the hours I spend putting emails, videos, recipes, and other materials together. If you choose not to participate in the January 2018 Online Daniel Fast because of the fee, I understand. But I do hope that you’ll still fast and pray in the coming year. May the Lord continue to bless you as you seek Him!
Thank you. I look forward to this year’s Daniel utmost fast. Missed it last year
Hi, Margaret! I’m thankful you’re joining us in prayer and fasting for 2018!
Shalom….we are part of a team / groupdoing this fast here in Amman, Jordan from the 2-22nd January, but we will continue till the 27th . Praying specifically for the Middle East at this time…blessings
Hi, Erene! How wonderful that you have a group who is doing the Daniel Fast together! Praise the Lord! May God pour out His Spirit on you and fill you with His power. I pray the Lord will give you wisdom and understanding as you seek Him.
My church has us start January 2 to January 21 am ready to see God’s continuous works
Wonderful! I’m so glad to hear your church is seeking the Lord together in a corporate fast. Every time our church has done so, we’ve seen God work in mighty ways, not only during the fast but also for months and years after it. May the Lord unify your hearts through the Holy Spirit and empower you to do His will!
Hi Kristen, I have signed up in the past and would like to sign again. I cannot find where I put my name in? I did order the materials but nowhere on this website can I find it? Every time I click it it just shoot me back. Thank you so much
Hi, Lynn! I checked, and you are signed up. You should receive an email in your inbox tomorrow morning. Let me know if you don’t see it. Thank you for signing up and participating in the January Daniel Fast again!
Hi,my name is Roberta and I was wondering do i have to pay to be apart of the fast. I would love to go on a Denial fast
Hi, Roberta! I’m glad to hear you’re interested in the January 2018 Daniel Fast! Yes, this year there is a small fee to participate and to cover the resources I provide throughout the fast. Thank you!
Happy New Year!! I just would like to make sure that I am signed up successfully for the fast.
Thanks and looking forward to this journey!!

Kristen
Several times I have registered for the 2018 fast but I have not received any emails leading up to the fast. I have downloaded the book om my Kindle and am ready to start the fast on 1/7/28. Could you please help me out, I feel like I’m going in circles. Thanks
Hi, Harriet! I’m glad you are interested in signing up, and I’m sorry you’ve had problems. Are you using the drop-down menu that’s included in this blog post? That’s the only way to register.
If I’m unable to pay until the 5th what should I do?
Hi, Maurice! I’m glad you want to participate in the January 2018 Daniel Fast. You can join on the 5th. The fast doesn’t begin until the 7th, so that’s fine!
I’m so very interested in the Daniel fast for many reasons…..prayer is not something I come by easily….my marriage needs God to become the center and through this fast I pray that God will help my husband to come fully into God’s will!
Deborah, the Lord will certainly honor your desire to draw closer to Him through prayer and fasting! I pray that He works mightily in your life and marriage. May His wonderful love and grace fill your home!
Hi Kristen,
I don’t recall having to pay in previous years. Is the fee to join new?
Yes, this year’s January Daniel Fast is different. The decision to charge a small fee was a difficult one. It wasn’t impulsive or flippant in any way. In the last eight years, I have never charged for any of the resources I’ve provided. Everything on my website has been completely free (with the exception of my books). I haven’t accepted any advertising, either. That’s the way I wanted it. But this past summer, I really sensed that changes were coming. God was moving me in a different direction. Even though Ultimate Daniel Fast is a ministry, it costs money to run it. There are expenses every month that need to be covered, not to mention the hours I spend putting emails, videos, recipes, and other materials together. I do hope you decide to join the fast. It’s going to be a powerful time with the Lord as we seek Him together!
Please register me for the fast. Thanks. God bless you!

I’m all registered and looking forward to a focused time with God. I received an email confirmation that my changes were updated, but I didn’t receive any information on how I can retrieve the book.
Great! The eBook is usually sent within a few hours of registration. I checked, and yours was sent a few minutes ago! Let me know if you don’t see it in your inbox. Thank you for signing up!
interested in the fast
Great, Judie! What questions do you have? You can register using the drop-down menu in this blog post.
Kristen,
I messed up and got the pdf but didn’t see the registration, can I just add that without getting another book? Not very technical
Pati Mitchell
Hi, Pati! Yes, you can. You should just select the $10 level, which is registration without the PDF. Thanks!
Thank you and I look forward to this year in unity with fasting and prayer❤️
Hi.. I signed up for the Daniel fast today.. I was looking for a recipe for potato pancakes… do you have one? Thanks Linda R
Hi, Linda! Thanks for signing up! No, I haven’t created a recipe for Daniel Fast friendly potato pancakes yet. 🙂 Perhaps I will on this fast!
Looking forward to doing the Daniel Fast for 2018.
Great! Make sure you get registered to receive the weekly emails and daily videos. The next email goes out on Jan. 2.
Hi Kristen, How many pages is the book on PDF thankyou
Hi, Lori! It’s 53 pages. Thanks for checking!
God is real and thanks to you for the opportunity to join a group of believers as I fast for 21 days beginning January 7. May the Holy Spirit Bless each of us.
Amen! Thank you for your encouragement!
I would like to register for the Jan 2018 fast please.

Hi, Renae! You’ll need to use the drop-down menu that’s in this blog post to register. Let me know if you have any questions or problems.
Hi
My husband & I have been following along with you for the last few years of the fast. Is it possible to still follow without having to purchase books? I already have a copy of You’re book .
Thanks
Hi, Christy! It’s good to hear from you. Yes, you can join the fast and not purchase a book. That’s the $10 level. But if you’d like the new 21 day devotions in Lift Up Your Voice, you want to sign up at the $15 level to get the eBook.
Hello, just registered. Are we supposed to get an email immediately or not until January?
Hi! Thank you for signing up for the January 2018 Daniel Fast! You should receive your first email tomorrow. The next one will be sent on 1-2. During the fast, weekly emails will be sent on Sunday mornings. I’m so glad you joined!
How can I confirm if I’m registered, I recall registering but can’t locate a reply email. Thanks
Hi, Bonnie! I don’t believe I’ve received a registration from you. If it was processed, you would have been emailed a receipt.
Please include me in the fast…
Hi, Lewis! I’d love for you to participate! To join the January 2018 Daniel Fast, you need to register. You can use the drop-down menu in the middle of this blog post (you have several options for participation). Let me know if you have any questions or problems. Thank you!
Hello Kristen,
I have both books mentioned for the fast. I saw somewhere about a schedule for the reading. Will that information be sent by email? Thanking you in advance
Hi, Sonja! Great question. A schedule won’t be emailed. But both books have Scriptures to read every day, and those passages are listed in the book. So your devotional readings will be determined by which book you use for this fast. 🙂
Hi, today is my sister’s birthday and I want to give her the gift of registration and the book for the upcoming Ultimate Daniel Fast. We’ve done it together for the past 2 fasts and I’d like us to do it again. She lost her property and livelihood in the Oregon fires this year, they are timber farmers and the whole place went up in the flames. So I think a gift like this will be encouraging. But I can’t figure out how. If I go to Paypal it looks like it would be me signing up again. Thanks so much!!
What a wonderful idea! Yes, you can gift a registration. Go ahead and pay like you did before, but send me a separate email with her address. Then she will be signed up to receive everything. Thank you!
When we buy the $15 one, how do we get the PDF?
Hi, Paulene! It will be emailed to you within 24 hours of your registration payment. Thank you!
Awesome. Thank you!
Our Church is participating in the Daniel Fast. I was looking for some guidelines to assist our church when I found your website. Thank you for providing such a wealth of information that is so helpful to those seeking to enrich their relationship with the Lord.
Hi, Pastor Tim! I’m so glad to hear your church is doing the Daniel Fast. Let me know if you have any questions about anything. May God bless your church abundantly as you seek Him!
Looking forward to it!
Me, too! 🙂 I’m glad you’re participating!
Hi
Can I sign up for the fast after December 18th? I would like to purchase, to join and the pdf version of the book but I am having trouble with my checking account and want to purchase without a problem.
Thank you and I look forward to the fast in January 2018, this will be my third time.
Best, Linda
Hi, Linda! Yes, you still have plenty of time to register. Weekly emails begin this week, but you can catch up on them when you sign up. I’m so glad to hear you’ll be joining the January Daniel Fast again!
Kristen I have been trying to register via the website but the only option I get is a paypal link in Spanish.
Can you assist? I would like to pay by card.
Hi, Paulette! I’m glad you want to sign up for the fast, but I’m sorry you’re having trouble. Are you using the drop-down menu in the middle of the blog post that lists three different options? It will take you to a Paypal page, but you have the option of paying by credit card at the bottom. Let me know if you still have problems selecting what you want!
Is there a place to log in or will everything be here on the website without a login?
Hi, Hilary! Everything will sent via email. Your first email should arrive in your inbox tomorrow morning!
Not sure if I am signed up for the 2018. Daniel Fast. I have purchased your Daniel Fast Book through CBD. I am receiving your emails regularly leading up to the fast.
