Biblical Fasting Part One

In this first message in a two part series on Biblical Fasting, Pastor Jerry lays the foundation by defining what it is to fast and reveals the spiritual purposes for it. In a Biblical Fast, we abstain from food to bring the flesh into subjection, and devote time and effort to pursue God more diligently to awaken the Spirit. This can either be done on a personal or corporate level. In today's Christian faith, fasting is too often forgotten, but there is a movement in the modern church to bring back fasting. We will look at the importance of fasting and how fasting has changed between the old and new covenant. So, please join us in this fast as we pursue God to get closer to Him and give Him our all!
