Fasting is a well-known Biblical principal, but unless we understand why we fast, it just becomes another thing to do in the new year. But if we grasp that fasting unlocks the power of God within our lives, then we can be truly satisfied.

Today April is joined by Pastor Jeffrey Kent, author of Satisfied: A 21-Day Prayer and Fasting Devotional through the Gospel of John. Listen in on this conversation between two seminary graduates to learn how you can be completely satisfied in 2022!

Below are some of our favorite takeaways from today’s show:

⭐️ Fasting is different than a new year resolution in the way that we depend on God to satisfy our every need versus depending on ourselves to improve our circumstances.

⭐️ Limiting our fleshly desires allows our spirit to come alive and increases God’s clarity and power within our lives.

⭐️ Don’t give up if you happen to slip up within the fast. Remember that the goal to keep pressing in to God’s heart.

⭐️ When we are intentional to consecrate the first part of the year to God, we can come with great expectation that God will reveal Himself to us.
