This week, we’re returning to our verse-by-verse study of the Gospel according to Matthew, looking at Jesus’ words on fasting in Matthew 6:16-18. Jesus teaches that fasting isn’t about impressing others or appearing more spiritual—it’s about quietly drawing closer to God, seeking Him with a sincere heart. We’ll reflect on what it means to hunger for God more than the things of this world, and how fasting helps us realign our hearts with His purposes.
