    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,834 views

    Legalistic fasting is not a prayer key. It is just going hungry. Spiritual awareness that prompts us to pray may also prompt us to fast. May God make us more spiritually aware. May his spirit prompt us to pray, even to the point of forgetting to eat.

    Prayer Keys - Fasting by Mark Stepherson “But when you fast, put oil on you head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to men that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” Matthew 6:17-18 Did you ...read more

    God's Guidance And Fasting

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Aug 14, 2013
     | 5,100 views

    How does the church serve God and seek His will? How do we hear His voice for our present day needs? Certainly scripture is the primary tool to know God's will, but how we apply it takes wisdom and Spirit led help. How do we discover those?

Ginny, their 5-year-old, had recently learned that fasting meant not eating. “No!” she shouted. “You can’t fast! You’ll die!” Her dad carefully ...read more
