Podcast Notes:

Food is good, a gift from God! (1 Cor.8:8; 1 Tim. 4:4). Fasting should be a habit of praying and giving. Fasting is a normal part of being human. Jesus said, “when”, not “if” we fast. He modeled it and expected His followers to do the same. Fasting afflicts the soul Leviticus 16:29-31

Purpose of Fasting:
1. Calamities of life 
Ezra for finances and protection (Ezra 8:21). Fasting is a Biblical way to humble yourself (Psalm 35:13; 69:10).
2. Connecting with God 
Jesus said they will fast when I am gone (Mark 2:20).
3. Calling of God
. Most of the people in the OT fasted in crisis, Jesus fasted for His calling.
4. Conquering of the devil (1 Samuel 7:6; 2 Samuel 1:12; 2 Chronicles 20:3; Matthew 17:21; Isaiah 58:6
