In this series “Awakening: Pursuing a New Level of Passion for God” the believer can cultivate a deeper longing for God while fasting and praying. Prayer and fasting is defined as voluntarily going without food in order to focus on prayer and fellowship with God. When prayer and fasting are combined, there is a special double-portion power created. This is simply one biblical way to force ourselves to focus and rely on God for His strength, provision and wisdom.
