Ezra's Grief Fast
1 dayFasting in shock and sorrow over covenant unfaithfulness.
Ezra withdraws in grief and refuses food and water in response to community sin. It pairs fasting with intercession and moral seriousness in leadership.
Scripture
Ezra 10:6
6 Then Ezra rose up from before the house of God, and went into the room of Jehohanan the son of Eliashib: and when he came there, he ate no bread, nor drank water; for he mourned because of the trespass of them of the captivity.
