why do christians fast

Hey y’all ! Welcome to another Friday with CWCOI ! In this week’s episode our host, Ally Yost, shares more about what the Bible says about fasting and why we are encouraged to fast. The purpose of fasting is so we can take our focus off the things of this world so that we are then able to completely focus on our Father. When we fast in a spirit of humility and joy, we are able to hear the Lord's voice clearer. We hope this episode leaves you encouraged to fast or to pray more about what that might look for you ! Matthew 6:16-18, Exodus 34:28, Joel 2:12 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cwcoi/support To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
