ISAIAH 58: GOD'S CHOSEN FAST
Isaiah 58 is a beautiful chapter about what God does and does not want when we fast. He doesn’t want it to be merely an exercise in self-denial simply for the sake of self-denial. God expects us to share our bread with the hungry and provide for the physical needs of others who are in need. God also directs us to “set the oppressed free and break every yoke.” What exactly does that look like? Well, it is probably different for each of us.
Do you have a loved one suffering from addiction or enduring a horrible trial? Pray for deliverance for them. The challenge in this passage is to allow God to train your eyes and your hearts to see the needs of others and to pray and fast for intercession for them. The result? Isaiah 58:11, “The Lord will guide you always; He will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land.” Who is God putting on your heart to pray and intercede for today?
When you fast and you are tempted to something for quick relief, instead take that moment to pray fervently and expectantly for whom or what He has laid on your heart to pray!

We all know that there is power in prayer. Prayer is defined in several ways: it is how we praise and worship our glorious Lord and Savior; it is our most powerful weapon; our open door to communication with the living God; the vehicle to confess our sin; how to find God's will for our lives and one of the ways we can hear the voice of our precious Savior. It is not very often that we hear about fasting with prayer, either from the pulpit or in our conversations as a church community. Yet, the Bible has so much to say on this subject and so many wonderful accounts of deliverance, forgiveness, and miracles that happened when God's people did fast and pray together. This ten-day reading plan will focus on some of the Biblical accounts and show us the undeniable power and movement of God when His people humble themselves through fasting and prayer.
