Dethroning King Appetite

What this episode covers

Discover the powerful spiritual discipline of biblical fasting in 'Dethroning King Appetite.' Learn why Jesus spoke of fasting as an expectation for believers, not an option. This teaching explores how fasting specifically means abstaining from food for spiritual purposes and how it works alongside prayer and giving to address the three most powerful idols in our lives: King Mammon (money), King Busyness (time), and King Appetite (physical desires). Understand what biblical fasting is and isn't - it's not manipulating God, not a weight loss program, and not for public recognition. Instead, fasting is pursuing God rather than outcomes, aligning with God's will, creating physical reminders of spiritual hunger, and worshiping through weakness. Get practical guidelines for different types of fasts: complete, partial, time-limited, and single-meal fasts. Learn how to prepare spiritually, pair fasting with prayer, and approach fasting from a place of identity rather than for identity. Perfect for Christians seeking deeper spiritual disciplines, those struggling with putting physical desires before spiritual growth, anyone curious about biblical fasting, believers wanting to break free from worldly attachments, and those seeking God's direction in their lives. Discover how dethroning King Appetite through fasting makes room for Christ to reign supreme in every area of your life.🌐 Websitehttps://theshed.church📘 Facebook / theshedatprovence 📷 Instagram / theshed.church 🎵 TikTok / theshed.church 📺 YouTube / @theshedatprovence
