The Power of the New Fast

DAY 7 OF 7

Living Out the New Fast

The act of fasting, rooted in both historical and biblical contexts, takes on a new and transformative meaning in the new life of Christ. Through the teachings of Jesus, we learn that fasting is not a mere obligation but a passionate discipline that draws us closer to God. It’s a celebration of His work in our lives, a means to lift us into His presence, and an exercise of the power of the Holy Spirit within us.

Fast Together

As you start your own fasting journey, remember that the new fast is a reflection of the new life in Christ. Look for ways to succeed with your fast; one way is to fast with someone else or a group. Invite them to read this Bible plan as they also seek to grow closer to God through fasting.
