\u00a0\u201cBut they that wait upon the Lord
\nshall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they
\nshall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The basic principle of fasting is to withdraw from a legitimate demand
\nof your body or habit for a period to concentrate on your spirit. This could be
\nfood, newspapers, television or even natural fellowship with other human
\nbeings.\u00a0 If correctly practiced, fasting
\nwill enhance your sensitivity to the spirit.\u00a0
\nThe purpose of fasting is to have time to focus on spiritual activities,
\npraying and seeking God\u2019s face. <\/span><\/p>\n

There are different kinds of fasting:<\/span><\/p>\n

1.Corporate
\nfasting<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

In the Dream Centre Church, starting from November of each year, we
\nobserve an annual 40 days fasting in preparation for the coming year. This is a
\ncorporate event where we follow the Holy Spirit through the leadership of the
\nchurch pastor. <\/span><\/p>\n

2.Private
\nfasting<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Private fasting can be done by a Christian through the Holy Spirit\u2019s
\ndirection or self-imposed fasting out of a position of Christian maturity.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regardless of the fasting type, let it be clear what you are doing.
\nAbstaining from food is not the goal but focusing on the spirit. Therefore,
\nfocus on the spirit. Do not give any room to the devil during your fasting.\u00a0 The devil will attempt to assault your
\nconscience and your body will fight you. That is because he does not want you
\nto do something that will make you sensitive and spiritual.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is no law that says your fasting must be done within specific
\nhours of the day.\u00a0 During a private fast,
\nif you plan to fast your breakfast alone, determine that between you and God,
\nand spend your breakfast hour praying and gaining sensitivity to the Holy
\nSpirit. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PRAYER:<\/span><\/b> Father,
\nlet your word come alive in me. Let it pierce through every part of my flesh,
\nsoul and spirit, until your will alone is strengthened in me. Amen. <\/span><\/p>\n
