In reality, fasting is like the sasquatch of the spiritual disciplines. We hear about it at church, we’ve read about it in the scripture, but it’s rarely if ever spotted in our lives. Not only is fasting seldom preached, it’s even more scarcely practiced.
Some have the idea that fasting is for monks or legalists, but it might challenge us to know that fasting is mentioned more in scripture than baptism. In fact, over 77 times the Word describes and details the act of fasting in both the Old and New Testaments.
For the early church, fasting was normal & expected in the life of believers, however, over time for us it has become strange. Leave us a comment and share with a friend.
