Practicing Fasting | To Grow in Holiness
Sermon Scripture: Matthew 6:16-18, Romans 12:1-2
When we fast, at least four things are happening in our body and soul; it’s weaning us off the pleasure principle, it’s revealing what’s in our heart, it’s re-ordering our desires, and it’s drawing on the power of God to overcome sin.
Our fight is not against the body — the body is broken, but it is a good gift. Our fight is for the body. It’s against the flesh, or sinful appetites within us all. And fasting is one of the most powerful disciplines of the Way to free our body and soul from the chains of sin and the prison of shame.
