”Is this not the fast that I have chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, To undo the heavy burdens, To let the oppressed go free, And that you break every yoke?“ (Isaiah 58:6 NKJV)
• God is calling many of His children to go on a fast. Ask Him what fast He wants you to do and for how many days. There is an Esther fast, Daniel fast, water only fast, partial fast, and many more. A lot of people have been getting tormented mentally and emotionally with things like anxiety, overthinking, fear, hopelessness, depression, double mindedness, confusion, etc. A fast will help in these times. While you fast, pray, read your word, and stay in worship and praise (try to be in the presence of God & Jesus as much as you can). Do not fight/argue with others or let it be know you are fasting (keep it between you & God unless He leads you to tell someone).
• ”And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.“ (Jeremiah 29:13 NKJV)
Benefits of Fasting:
⁃ Get closer to God & Jesus.
⁃ Hear the Holy Spirit clearer.
⁃ You are humbling yourself before God by killing your flesh (not literally) to build your Spirit.
⁃ It increases discernment, strengthens you, brings clarity, peace, etc.
⁃ Can bring you deliverance and get rid of demons.
• “However, this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting.” (Matthew 17:21 NKJV)
⁃ Helps you fight off witchcraft attacks, voodoo, Santeria, magic, etc.
⁃ You can fast for healing from sicknesses, illnesses, brokenness, trauma, etc.
⁃ Sometimes God can lead you to go on a fast on behalf of others.
