Every fast has been different and I have learned from every one.. Just do it and let the Lord walk you through the experience..You will be blessed...

This verse indicates that fasting is for today "Mat 6:16 Moreover when ye fast ..." Excellent point. I can't talk for anyone else, but I can say that I have so easily skipped over the word "when". I know that I have been spoiled by the style of living I have that fasting seemed more of a choice then anything else. Guilty! Jesus did mention that after He left, they would fast. If there was a head count in the United States, in particular, I wounder what the percentage would be? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
