Formed - Formed Through Fasting - Tag Team

from Purpose Church Hosted by Purpose Church

What are you being invited to surrender right now that is preventing formation in your life? This Sunday, three young voices challenged us with a powerful truth: fasting isn't just giving up food once a year. It's about creating space for God by surrendering what holds us back. Jesus fasted 40 days before His ministry began, not to prove who He was, but to prove He would trust the Father fully. In a culture that says "do what's best for you" and "stay comfortable," we're called to something radically different. Matthew 4:1-11 shows us that Jesus was led by the Spirit into discomfort, into the wilderness, to be tested. He chose surrender over shortcuts, obedience over convenience. Fasting is dying to our fleshly desires to make more room for God to move. It's not about getting something from God—it's about creating room FOR God. When we surrender, we must fill that space with prayer, worship, and His Word. What will you fast from today to draw closer to Him?
