The Purpose of Fasting

Fasting is a spiritual discipline that draws us closer to God. Jesus taught that fasting should not be done to impress others but as a private act of worship. In Matthew 6:16-18, He warned against hypocrisy, emphasizing that fasting is not about public recognition but about seeking the Father’s reward. Fasting humbles us, helping us recognize our dependence on God and creating space for Him to speak to our hearts.
