What is fasting?
Fasting in the Bible means abstaining from food or drink to focus on prayer and seeking
a closer relationship with God. It is a spiritual discipline that emphasizes humility,
dependence on God, and a desire for deeper communion with Him.
In the Book of Acts, fasting is a spiritual practice paired with prayer when believers seek
God’s specific guidance, make major leadership choices, or send out missionaries. It
shows a deep reliance on God rather than relying on physical food.
