What is fasting, and should Christians do it?
q DETERMINE YOUR type of FAST — tick ONE! Fasting is the foregoing of a meal or consumption of food for a predetermined period of time. A follower of
Water ONLY Fast JESUS will sacrifice his natural desire for food in order to spend time seeking God regarding a specific
issue. The intention is that all the time that would be spent acquiring, preparing and consuming food will,
ONCE a DAY Meal Fast instead, be spent in the presence of God through prayer, worship or meditation on the Word. Also, the
heightened sense of awareness obtained through hunger serves as a reminder of the purpose of the fast.
Liquid ONLY Fast The goal is to replace the feeding of the needs of physical hunger with the feeding of one's spiritual hunger
Fruits & Vegetables ONLY Fast by the means of intimacy with God. Jesus fasted from all food and drink, except water (Luke 4:2). The
Bible also describes some extreme times that people fasted from everything, including water. See Exodus
PRAY TOGETHER at any HIS LIFE CENTER 34:28, Deuteronomy 9:9, Ezra 10:6, Esther 4:16 and Acts 9:9. This type of fast is usually reserved for

THEOLOGY of FASTING
The theology of fasting is a theology of priorities in which believers are given the opportunity to express
themselves in an undivided and intensive devotion to the Lord and to the concerns of spiritual life. This
