Beginner's Guide to Fastingનમૂનો
Learning how to end a fast is just as important as starting a fast. When it is ended too abruptly and solids are introduced too quickly, it can be very harmful to your body.
The most important thing to remember is not to overeat. We all look forward to the end of a fast when the restrictions on our food are lifted. Although it can be an exciting time, it can also be dangerous – especially if you do an extended fast.
This next point does not apply as much if you did a partial fast, but it’s good to note if you ever decide to start an extended fast. Make sure to exit your fast with liquids (juice, tea, soup, etc.) for a few days, and gradually begin to introduce solids back into your meals. You can do so by eating smaller portions or snacking at various times. After so many days of not eating, your stomach “shrinks” and seems to get full much faster than before with smaller-sized portions. To ensure a successful end to your fast, introduce solids gradually.
Today’s Prayer:
Father, thank You because I know something happens in the spirit realm due to fasting. I pray that fasting becomes a regular part of my lifestyle. Grant me grace as I fast.

About this Plan
The practice of fasting is prevalent in the Scriptures. We see throughout the Bible this concept was practiced by kings, prophets, and all of God’s people to this day. As you fast, you’ll notice it will help increase your humility, your hunger, and your holiness as you are formed into the image of Christ.
