It is often practiced during times of prayer, mourning, or when seeking divine guidance. Fasting is not merely abstaining from food but is intended to redirect focus from physical needs to spiritual growth. It reflects humility before God, acknowledging His sovereignty and inviting His presence into one's life. Through fasting, believers humble themselves, seek forgiveness, and align their will with God's purposes, deepening their faith and reliance on His provision and direction.Ready For More?Check out firstchristian.com to find opportunities to connect and grow.We'd love to see you this coming Sunday on-campus or streaming online at 9 and 11am.Follow @fcccanton on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter to stay connected!Support the show
