Fasting is more about replacing than it is about abstaining — replacing normal activities with focused times of prayer and feeding on the Word of God.

Fasting is more about longing for the power and presence of Jesus than restricting our appetites.

Every time I have fasted I have found my worship experience sweeter, the illumination of God’s Spirit brighter and the hunger for God’s Word stronger.

Fasting turns each moment of craving into a prayer of intense dependence.

The rewards of fasting ultimately lead to a more intimate and satisfying experience with the God who made me.

Fasting is a discipline that should be a holy habit.

Fasting is an act of humility that spotlights our weaknesses and reveals dependence on things rather than on God.
