Fasting and prayer often go hand in hand. Jesus saw fasting as part of the Kingdom life with God. As we explored last week with prayer - fasting is not a HAVE to - but a GET to. Fasting is not a time to get things from God or even to get God to love you. It is a time to draw closer to Him - and to commune His spirit with yours.
“When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others 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 6:16-18
