A BiblePay fast for a recovery of our stability for the continuance of our orphan base.

Is that your desire, or is it God's desire for us? He works in mystery ways and his will may or may not be aligned with what we want in this specific situation.

Having said that, a fast is a great idea and let's be hungry for Jesus. Whenever you have hunger pains, let it be what inspires you to hunger more for Jesus.

There are 4 distinct issues here: Praying for something unholy, Organizing a fast for really good reasons, asking our spiritual father for help, and then Gods sovereign will to bless this project.

Imho, I feel the Holy Spirit will come down on me hard if I asked anyone to pray for something unholy; I definitely do not wish to pray for price appreciation or personal gain for our personal sake; I pray for Sustainability of the project. Actually when we were hovering around 30 for a while I was pretty happy and I think that led to some complacency; we should be more proactive.

But moving on I think God would really want us to promote fasts in his name! This is a great cause, and on a side note I feel its really time for a fast anyway for some other reasons (part of what I noted with Trump, although those may be my own personal beliefs, thats why I said your own Presidents). Ill be praying for extended Grace to America as we close in on 9-11 for multiple reasons.

I believe his sovereign will to bless this project is distinct from a push for a fast.
