2 Chronicles 7:14 if My people who are called by My name will humble themselves, and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land.
The most important aspect of fasting is the humbling oneself, afflicting our soul, and gaining a deeper revelation of our need and dependence upon God.
God begins this verse with "IF" and by the use of the word "If" God is implying a conditional promise, and the very first condition He stipulates for His people is humility. Sincere and heartfelt prayer cannot take place without humility, neither can repentance. No one lacking true humility will set the heart upon desiring a a close and intimate relationship with God, seeking His face because the opposite of humility is pride and God resists the proud.
