Simply defined, fasting is abstaining from food with a spiritual goal or purpose in mind. The Bible offers examples of several individuals who fasted for extended periods of time. At its core, fasting is a means of humbling ourselves before God and putting ourselves in a posture where God can speak to us about our spiritual condition and lead us to spiritual breakthroughs.
