The purpose of fasting is to humble ourselves to be able to say "not my will but thine be done". We can't twist God's arm. We do draw near to God by humbling ourselves before Him. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like the cross has betrayed me and i have fasted and prayed and i have nothing left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just feel like these last 10 years has just been one disappointment after another and I kept thinking I want maybe one Jubilee comes things will turn around or maybe when you know the fifth year Conser the seventh year and I keep looking for signs and wonders think that maybe he’ll turn around and honor my faithfulness. Just created new rock bottoms. I can be specific and I know that you didn’t come here to hear my personal issues. I just came to this form because I wanted to be a encouraged. I literally feel like walking off the face of the earth and never looking back. I feel like the cross has disappointed me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He already does, if we are Christians we are His children, and He loves us more than we could ever know. Fasting does however bring us closer to God, and makes us to hear from him easier.... That being said, there are things that will STOP the benefits of fasting, or prayer in general.... Unforgivness, bitterness, or offenses Not praying in faith Not honoring authority, including the government, parents or husband, boss Any and all sin!
