Day 16: Fasting For Spiritual Breakthrough Chapters 1-5

Imagine a spiritual practice so powerful that it can transform your relationship with God, yourself, and the world. That's what we're uncovering today, as we continue our study of biblical fasting. It's Day 16 of our 21 day fast. Today, I'm going to review the first 5 chapters of "Fasting for Spiritual Breakthrough: A Practical Guide to Nine Biblical Fasts" by Elmer L. Towns.

DISCLAIMERS:

Remember, fasting does not move God. Fasting moves us. It puts us in a position to receive from God.  

I am not a medical professional, and nothing in this podcast should be taken as medical advice. 

Please fast responsibly. If you have any underlying health issues or unhealthy relationship with food, do not fast. And if you are going on an extended fast, it's a good idea to check with your doctor first.

Father God, 

You are our Creator, Provider and Sustainer. Thank You for the wisdom and insights drawn from the depths of Your Word, the guidance of Your Spirit, and the writings of Elmer Towns.

Father, bless each listener on their spiritual journey. May the methods of fasting we have explored today deepen our understanding of the transformative power of prayer and fasting. May we use the spiritual discipline of fasting as a way to draw ever closer to You. Give us the strength, discipline and desire to embrace fasting as a means of deepening our faith, breaking the bonds of personal struggle, and reviving our lives and our communities.

May we be inspired to seek You with greater fervor, to serve others with more compassion, and to live our lives as a reflection of Your grace and mercy.

Father, I pray for those who are beginning or continuing their fasting journey. May they find clarity, strength, and a deeper connection with You. Let their fasting be a genuine expression of their faith, a humble submission to Your will, and a powerful tool for spiritual breakthrough.

May Your peace, which surpasses all understanding, guard their hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.

In the name of Jesus, we pray. 
Amen
