Fasting is all about a closeness with God.
Unpopular opinion - I don’t think fasting is optional - now I’m not talking about salvation. But when you look at how Jesus talks about fasting, he puts “prayer and fasting” together many times. And when he’s preaching about it, he starts by saying, “when you fast” not - if you decide to fast. In the same phrasing as “when you pray” he says “When you fast, fast like this - come ya hair” and even better - when you fast and you fast with pure motives and not for the sake of people looking at you and patting you on the back, the Father rewards that - so although it’s a sacrifice, why would we not want to fast?
So while there are several reasons that people fasted in the Bible, I want to hone in on 4 of them.
1. To prepare their hearts for ministry or mission -
2. To ask God for wisdom.
3. To ask God for protection or victory-
4. To worship God
