The Out of Rhythm Life: Fasting
Pastor Leah Carolan
THEME – Fasting is a powerful prayer we can use to realign our lives when we get out of rhythm.
TEXT – 2 Chronicles 20:12
Fasting in the Bible is:
1. A regular scheduled spiritual practice
2. For mourning, to show grief or great distress
3. A sign of repentance
4. To prepare for ministry
5. To seek divine deliverance
Reasons We Don’t Fast
1. Fear
2. Ignorance
3. Rebellion
Reasons We Should Fast
1. Restore that ‘first love’ for the Lord.
2. Reveal our spiritual condition.
3. Revival/Breakthrough
NEXT STEPS
1. Try a one meal fast.
2. Try a one day fast.
3. Try a longer fast – maybe along the lines of a Daniel Fast!
