There isn’t just one reason to fast. The Bible is full of situations where fasting takes place for personal, family and national reasons. And God probably doesn’t care what our reason is, just that we set aside special time to fast and be with Him. Intentionality will keep our focus strong! Here are a few questions to ask yourself and help you determine why joining this 30 day fast right now might be a good thing for you to do :
How do I want to change up the way I hunger for God, for a short time? Maybe your quiet time with Him is getting stale and without clear direction. Maybe lately you are just going through the motions.
What special aspect or new area of growth do I want to focus on in my walk with God? You really want to see God’s change in a certain way this year and want to focus on it.
What extraordinary prayer request might I want to lift up to God with more fervor? You might have a really tough situation in your life or a strong desire for God to do something specific.
What bad habit or unhealthy focus do I want to see God’s control over? There could be something in your life that you are finding you idolize more than God and want to see that turned on its head.
Choose one focus for your 30 Day Fast and be prepared to be amazed by Him!
