Fasting Explained
Christian Fasting is a believer’s voluntary abstinence from food for spiritual purposes.
Fasting is Expected
Fasting is to Be Done for a Purpose
I’m hungry!…I’m fasting…I’m fasting for this purpose:____________
To Strengthen Prayer
To Seek God’s Guidance
To Express Greif
To Seek Deliverance or Protection
To Express Repentance and the Return to God
To Humble Oneself Before God
To Express Concern for the Work of God
To Minister to the Needs of Others
To Overcome Temptation and Dedicate Yourself to the Lord
To Express Love and Worship to God
And whether or not you receive the specific blessing you seek, one thing is sure: If you knew what God knew, you would give yourself the identical blessing that He does.
And none of His rewards are worthless.
Will you confess and repent of your fear of fasting?
Will you fast as the Holy Spirit directs?

Will you plan a fast of dedication now as an expression of your willingness to fast from now on?
