Fasting increases your faith in God and His son our saviour Jesus Christ. Fasting and prayer lifts you up against a challenging situation where your prayers are answered by our Father in heaven our God Almighty. Fasting must be kept without disclosing it to the people around us to receive honour here on earth but must be kept secret because our Father in heaven who looks into secret is the one to whom we come seeking in fasting and HE rewards us. Jesus says in Luke 18:1 "... men always ought to pray and not lose heart....". God Bless you, and increase your faith. That you may be fruitful in HIM and His WORD may abide in you.
