Fasting
Matthew 5:16-18The Way of the Kingdom Part 3
Dr. Steven Smith

Description:
Fasting is feasting on God. It is depriving one’s self of food (or some other physical indulgence) for spiritual reward. You fast when God tells you to, when you want to know and love God more, and when you are desperate for Him.
Fasting communicates that your appetite for God is greater than your appetite for food. It demonstrates that satisfaction and contentment are found in Him. God is speaking and moving all around us; fasting aligns our hearts to what God wants to say and do.
