The Purpose of Fasting
Key Passage: Matthew 6:16–18
Additional Verses:
- Joel 2:12–13
- Isaiah 58:6–7
Devotional Topic:
Fasting isn’t about impressing God—it’s about humbling ourselves before Him. It shifts our focus from what we crave to Who we need. Done rightly, it becomes a cry for closeness.
Reflection Questions:
- What are you hungry for—physically, emotionally, spiritually?
- How could fasting become a tool to draw nearer to God?
Call to Action:
Plan one intentional fast this week—maybe a meal, social media, or something else. Set your focus on God during that time.
About this Plan
Fasting and solitude aren’t about punishment or withdrawal—they’re about focus and fullness. These disciplines remove the noise so you can hear God more clearly. In the stillness, He strengthens you. In hunger, He satisfies your deepest needs. This week is an invitation to step away from the noise and closer to the heart of God.
