HOW BELIEVERS FAST
When believers fast, they abstain from food to signal dependence on God. Instead of relying on food to sustain us, we turn our focus to God and rely on Him for strength and also to entreat him for spiritual matters. It adds power to our prayers. Note that fasting is always joined with prayer, otherwise it’s just starvation.

You’ll feel mentally, spiritually and physically refreshed.
