A season of Release & Rest

As Equipping People celebrates its 7th Year anniversary, we take time to fast, pray and wait on the Lord for 7-days.

The 7th year is a scriptural season of #Release and #Rest. As we pray and fast, by faith we believe God to experience:

• A release from everything that is not of God, from God, by God or in God or does not add value to our lives.
• A release into everything that is of God, from God, by God and in God and all that HE has spoken in His word.

As we experience #release, our lives will enjoy REST in Relationship. Economy. Spiritual. Talent
