ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI- Recognising that it was through prayers that the Virgin Islands was able to overcome its many challenges over generations to blossom into a jewel of the Caribbean, the territory has been called upon to engage in a National 3-day Prayer and Fast today, April 10, 2022.

Premier and Minister of Finance Honourable Andrew A. Fahie (R1) extended the invitation at a press conference on Friday, April 8, 2022.

“Now with the hurricane season upon us, the ongoing challenges that have been and continue to be experienced in many facets, the potential challenges of the CoI, among many other challenges, as a people we must now Pray to GOD without ceasing for HIS WILL alone to be done for these Virgin Islands,” Premier Fahie stated.

Unity in strength

He added that during the heightened phase of the pandemic the VI Government joined Prayer Warriors in calling for National Prayer and Fast at different times.

“Now we do the same one more time as from Sunday, 10 April, 2022, to Tuesday, 12 April, 2022.

"We are coming together for three days in unity as there is strength and with GOD everything is possible.  Remember we are in this together and together we will rise stronger and better than ever before."

The Premier also used the opportunity to thank those who continue to “Pray without ceasing, for GOD'S WILL alone” be done for the present and future generations of the Virgin Islands.

      Careful who you decide to enter a corporate fast with since not all people who say God worship the Creator God.

      Devil worshippers fast too.

    National 3 day prayer and fasting is good thing to involve self to do. However, the BVI Christian Counsel should be the leader of this call to pray, not politicians.
    We humans should be desireous to pray daily. Why should we? See below.
    1. We practice lies everyday, most of us do.
    2. We steal from others everyday, many of us.
    3. We practice disloyalty against our partners, many is us do
    4. We cover others of the belonging, and envie them of their success, many do.
    5. And the list of thou shall not continues.
    So you see, praying everyday is vial for spiritual and physical success, and good political governance, too.

      Please speak for yourself: I do none of these things. I practice love, compassion and kindness because it is the right thing to do.

    Every time this exercise happens, are things getting better or worst? Too much death in the land. Seems as though this place is Sodom and Gomorrah. Almighty Jesus please come and cleanse our land and get rid of these demons in high places. Amen

    The last time they did a fasting alot of people was sacrifice here so stop the fasting it's a Elites devil ritual just like the Emmys, Grammy awards and all the other pagean holiday etc all devil ritual. People are giving the devil energy. None of these christian would help our people who's broke they rather fight for land,money etc. The devil work always win because of the tv, radio, school and news programming. Who sends food for their neighbors,or say hi,or or invite them for a snack or drink to get t ok know them. Instead we go on our phone and tv to be programmed with their information. Get rid of the government resources and you can learn your people around you build back better instead of letting the devil people which Biden says build back better which means break down everything even the people and build back better. Vaccine is depopulation and the robots running this Earth is the new normal you up see them in stores,hotels , sex robots. They will replace the humans who don't comply. You see what's going on in China it's going to be world wide

    Fasting is abstaining from all forms of food products, to include liquified fruits and vegetables, for 72 hours. Liquids can be taken, just not any solids

    How many Virgin Islanders can fast and pray using this formula, remains to be seen

    Going to take more than 3 days of fasting and praying to recover from all the bad publicity and damage to tourism by pointless raids by Customs and VISR on BVI visitors and yachts. No worries though as there are plenty of other Caribbean islands for tourists to visit and yachts to base on.

    No one needs to fast and pray for days. Just live right and use the common sense you were born with. The bad people who are committing crimes don't believe in God or anything except what they can get for themselves. You may think you are praying for the wicked to turn their lives around or a natural phenomenon caused by nature, which will happen anyway regardless of prayer or fasting. Just live right and treat others kindly because that is the right thing to do. God does answer prayers, but sometimes the answer is NO!
