Fasting is when we forego food or other pleasures in order to achieve spiritual gain. Of all the spiritual disicplines, it is perhaps the most misunderstood. in today’s culture, many think of it in ritual terms or they deem it irrelevant. The scriptures show us that God places value on fasting and that when it is aligned with His purposes, it can have powerful restorative effects on us and our communities. When we discipline ourselves and seek God through fasting and prayer, we become realigned with our Creator. He uses seasons of fasting to maximize us and make us into the purposeful and dynamic people He created us to be! #maxoutyourpotential
