Fasting


Listen Later

In our exploration of spiritual disciplines, we've uncovered a powerful tool for transformation - fasting. This practice goes beyond mere abstinence; it's about creating space in our lives to seek God more intentionally. We've seen examples from the Old Testament where fasting was used to seek guidance, forgiveness, and courage. But perhaps most striking is Jesus' own 40-day fast, reminding us that even the Son of God saw value in this discipline. As we consider fasting, we're challenged to remember that 'man does not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.' This profound truth invites us to shift our dependence from worldly sustenance to the life-giving power of God's word. How might our lives change if we regularly set aside our physical needs to focus on our spiritual hunger?

This week we look at the wonderful and beautiful spiritual discipline of fasting.
