Episode Synopsis

Matthew 9:14-17Biblical fasting is a powerful spiritual practice of intentionally denying oneself to deepen one's relationship with God. It goes beyond mere dietary restriction, serving as a means to strengthen prayer, seek divine guidance, express repentance, and worship. Through fasting, believers create space for spiritual transformation and recognize their dependence on God. While it can involve abstaining from food, fasting may also include temporarily giving up other aspects of life like social media or entertainment, always with the purpose of drawing closer to God.
