Austerity, or fasting, is one of the most effective spiritual practices. It helps to draw you closer to God and your praying. In Luke 4:1-14, Jesus is depicted as fasting for forty days. After this he returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit. This shows the dramatic change for the better fasting is capable of.

Hunger defeat is more than avoiding food. It is the spending time praying, rejoicing, and making a time to read the scriptures. When these elements are lacking, fasting simply means hunger. Fasting makes one’s spirit achieve an understanding of God’s wish. It guides you towards understanding what He has for you in your life.

Regular fasting trains a person spiritually. One might not see the effects of abstinence for one day, but consistency leads to change. As one has to deposit money in a bank through saving procedures, it is same in spiritual power saving through prayer and fasting.

Fasting also subdues the body. It is in this sense that fasting disciplines the body. One cannot reasonably argue that food is bad for you, but it is important not to let the appetite get the best of you, especially when … Prayer is good for the soul, but if indulged excessively, it can kill your spirit. Fasting instills a virtue such as a self-control mechanism and reliance on one’s maker. In my own experience, even the kindest children can learn, for instance, the value of fasting. A fast up to lunch could transform their faith and develop their stamina.

You don’t need to be gifted to practice fasting. And one MUST be willing to devote their time to it and be disciplined. Once a week should be dedicated to fasting. But long nights can be of use by praying for your family, your community, and your progress. When fasting, breakthroughs in your life should be anticipated.

Start fasting today. Feel the change and the power of God in 2025. Fasting should be not just an event that starts in September and ends in March. It is for your own spiritual development.
