When You Fast...
from Pastor's Bible Study · host Pastor Chad Thompson
Jesus didn’t say “if you fast” but “when you fast.” Implied in Christ’s teaching is that we would fast and should fast. It's not a matter of if but when. Charles Stanley said, "Fasting is the abstinence of anything that hinders our communion with God. In particular, fasting is the abstinence of food for the purpose of seeking God in prayer." It is this spiritual discipline that goes hand in hand with prayer. Fasting is the other hand with which we let go of the world. Fasting helps us to sharpen our focus and fervency in prayer.
