Welcome to day TWO of our Daniel Fast Devotionals.

Matthew 6:16
When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full.

Day 2

It is time to get a new outlook on fasting. When practiced the right way, fasting is something that everyone should enjoy. That’s right…enjoy! Fasting is for every follower of Jesus. Too many people fast with a strict mind-set that focuses on abstaining. The fasting I am talking about is different. Of course it involves abstaining from food, but the mindset is completely different. It is possible to have minimum physical emptiness with maximum spiritual fullness.

Fasting is one of the most powerful spiritual weapons believers can use. Maybe you’ve never done it before. There is a serious misconception that fasting is for serious, super Christians or only for times of crisis. Some even think fasting is only an Old Testament thing. Nothing could be further from the truth.

Jesus said in Matthew 6:16, “When you fast.” He did not say if you fast!
There is a closeness to God that you simply will not experience from prayer or personal devotions alone. You HAVE TO fast. You get a revelation of God’s Word when you fast that you simply cannot get any other way. And disconnecting from the distractions of the world through fasting, and connecting into the power and presence of God through prayer, well, this brings a supernatural freshness and newness to our souls.

What’s your BIG PRAYER for the next 20 days? What is the ONE THING that you are believing God to accomplish in your life, or the life of someone else? Take hold of it and believe God will answer that prayer. God responds to action. So be diligent in your prayers and your fasting and you will receive the answer you need to hear from God!
