Fasting and Listening:

God communicates and guides when you are teachable. Part of the purpose of a fast is to humble our hearts and clear away distractions so that we are more attentive to what He has to say.

About this Plan

What Is Fasting?

WHAT IS FASTING? Fasting is giving up something for a specified number of days for a specific purpose. The type and length of the fast you choose is between you and God and should not be determined by what anyone else is doing. Fasting, prayer, and reading God's Word go hand in hand. When you fast, also pray for God's purpose and plan for your life to be revealed.
