Fasting

The goal of fasting is to draw nearer to God. Biblical fasting always has to do with eliminating distractions for a spiritual purpose; it hits the reset button of our soul and renews us from the inside out. It also enables us to celebrate the goodness and mercy of God and prepares our hearts for all the good things God desires to bring into our lives. Remember, your personal fast should present a level of challenge, but it is very important to know your body, your options, and, most importantly, to seek God in prayer and follow what the Holy Spirit leads you to do.

Scripture references about fasting.

Types of Fast

Selective Fast

This type of fast involves removing certain elements from your diet. One example of a selective fast is the Daniel Fast, during which you remove meat, sweets, and bread from your diet and consume water and juice for fluids and fruits and vegetables for food.

Complete Fast

This is a liquid only fast. Typically, water with light juices as an option.

Partial Fast

This fast, sometimes called the “Jewish Fast,” involves abstaining from eating any type of food in the morning and afternoon. This can either correlate to specific times of the day, or from sunup to sundown.

Prayer

Prayer is most effective when it isn’t something we do every now and then, but when it’s a lifestyle we cultivate. To understand how to have a lifestyle of prayer, we can look at the example Jesus gave during His life on earth. 

HAVE A CERTAIN PLACE 

Jesus had a specific place He went to pray. Having a designated place to pray helps us remove distractions and frees us to worship and pray out loud. 

It’s our hope that your prayer life becomes more natural, effective, and enjoyable.

Use these resources to help bring joy into your time with God.

HAVE A CERTAIN TIME 

Jesus got up early in the morning to spend time with His Heavenly Father. Make a daily appointment with God —  whether it’s first thing in the morning, at lunch, or in the  evening — and faithfully keep it.

HAVE A CERTAIN PLAN 

When Jesus taught His disciples how to pray, He gave them a prayer outline. We call it “The Lord’s Prayer.” As we pray every day, our plans for our prayer time can vary, maybe including worship music, Bible reading, and quiet time to listen to God. It doesn’t always have to look the same; it just helps when we have a plan for connecting regularly with God.
