Calling a Fast – Consecrate, Set Apart Unto God

There is a reason God told us to fast. When we consecrate or set apart our normal activity, schedules and eating for God to fast, conquering our flesh from ruling us, to consume more of Him in our life, it opens up freedom in the spirit.

We can pray without fasting, but we shouldn’t fast without praying.

“Now, therefore,” says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.”

Ezra 8:21-23, Acts 2:43-47, Joel 1:13-14, Joel 2:12-17
