I’m also fasting BUT not from food BUT from social media like insta en Snapchat en now i really see how much time i’m spending on those apps and all the time that i have now i infest it in the kingdom of God I recommend fasting from social media to people because I’m finally aware from al the time I’m actually wasting
Yes I love that you spoke about that. Social media really takes time from us especially because it's entertainment you know? But let me know how it goes because it's a beautiful thing that you're doing! x
Chiney Leefland I'm on my second week of fasting from social media and I started writing my book haha. That is how distracted I was before so when I finally put those distractions away, my mind expanded and basically I thought I was let paralyzed on my phone anymore. I also recommend fasting from social media! 🙌🏾
Chiney Leefland bo such thing as fasting from social media. Its food you need to fast with. When jesus fasted he sacrificed food not social media. Yes its good to get away from social media for God. But the real fasting for God is when you sacrifice food.
Galilea Fuentes Well maybe for those of you hung up on grammar 🙄 we as Christians should be encouraging to those who are sacrificing something, anything, for the sake of their relationship with their Heavenly Father. If you are depriving yourself FOR the Lord, you are fasting from that thing to purposely replace that time with time With the Lord, you are fasting. Doesn't matter what any other human ( brother in Christ or not) thinks. Until the Holy Spirit tells that person it's "not fasting unless its food, sorry " then why not encourage them?
Galilea Fuentes You're right. The Bible specifically states that a fast is from food and water or just food. The principle is to push away food and to replace it with the word of God. We can encourage giving up material possessions or social media, but that is not a genuine fast. I myself was confused about this until I received correction.
I disagree with tip #3. You always should come as you are with God. Especially when you are in a bad place or after you sinned. This is a prime reason to fast. Consider King David who fasted for days when he and Bathsheba committed adultery and had that baby. He locked himself away from everyone and just started to fast. And yes prayer is important when fasting. But, you don't have to pray all day. You can read scripture. You can praise him through song and dance. The point is to spend time with your Father alone. No need to put a yoke on yourself. Just focus on Him and all should be well.
I never thought that fasting without praying is called a hunger strike 🤪😃 very wise . Thank you so much for this vide. The next time I fast it won’t be a hunger strike. 🤗
Every christian should read Isaiah 58 : 1 - 12 so they know what fasting is for . Study Matthew 6 : 16 - 18 and Mark 9 : 16 - 29 this last text is imcomplete in most bibles but is complete in the King James Version Bible that you can read online for free .
Haha girl I remember when I first fasted. There was one time I fasted and someone at my job at the time asked me if I can go to lunch with her. I told her yes with the intention that I wasn't going to eat. This lady ordered food for me and I didn't want to throw it away. I prayed to break my fast off and ate it. I didn't tell there but she asked me the next day and I told her. She said I should have let her know. I didn't drink water first. The way my stomach was hurting. It was scary but if I've grown to learn. Fasting is a blessing but it's also discipline because I know people who say they will never fast. Like you mentioned, when you pray throughout the day, you don't become focused on the food but rather on God. Good bless you. Have a lovely day 💐😊
Lool! Girl your story is so funny. I've had that happen when I was on a plane and I was fasting. The air hostess offered me food and I didn't know what to do. So I just said yes to her, broke my fast under my breath and prayed God have mercy on me haha. But we really do learn from it all.
I can honestly say that I have never seen someone as beautiful as you in person. God is amazing! One thing that I picked up on is, "fasting without prayer is just a hunger strike"...truth! Thank you.
That's true sister.. That is why I make sure am home the whole day when I fast, coz it feels like a hunger strike when I fast while at work. As I don't really have time to pray, read the word and listening to teachings...
As of today, I am fasting from foods that.is not pure. In other words, any fried, poached, or oiled foods that may have extra chemicals in it, I am fasting from. I need physical and spiritual strength this year because I have been lacking it in 2017. So, I hope this year goes 10x's better and I have a better relationship with god
Thank you for this. I was not even fasting before, didn't know the importance when i was young, but when I finally did, it was so rewarding, I actually fasted once but lately I have been thinking about it alot n for some reason can't gather the strength nor zeal to do it. But your video truly encourages me to. Thx Rach.
ShaSha_Baby when you begin to think of fasting, its not you thinking it, its the power of the holy Spirit touching your heart to do it, its so rewarding, just like what bible says in Mathew 6:18, you shall be rewarded. But pray a kingdom advancement prayer, need of other people around, then your own light will break forth as noon day.
just before fasting I asked myself question how to do fast properly so this is what solution to my question asked in prayer...thank u Jesus for leading me to right video
What if I’m fasting for forgiveness from my sins. I have reoccurring sin, and I want strength and forgiveness from those. Am I allowed to fast for those reasons ?
Carlos, if you look in Isaiah 58, the LORD gives some of the benefits of proper fasting one of which is to break the bonds of such things as you have mentioned.
As long as you are a child of God, you are entitled to be in the presence of the father.... ANYTIME you can never stop sinning on your own, you need the grace of God to help stop sinning..... You can go BOLDLY before the father and speak to him about anything. Even if you don't fast!
I pray all day everyday but I confess that I have struggled so much with fasting. I've tried so many times but only made it 24hrs and just end up eating too much afterwards. I have struggled with emotional eating all my life. It's had it's grip on me for years and I feel convicted to share this. Please come into agreement with me as I pray to be delivered from this vice. In Jesus name I pray 🙏 Amen
Alright. Just know you aren’t the only one who’s struggling and although it’s been tough for you know that no matter how the situation looks. All things, all things, are possible with GOD Luke 18:27. You can fast with a group and just take steps from their praying to GOD for strength. And try not to think about how you’ll have no food what so ever for the next day or two just focus on GOD and fill those times where you usual eat with spending time with GOD and just listening to Him.
I have never fasted before but really want to. I have looked everywhere trying to find the information I need, but I have some unanswered . They may sound stupid to others, but they are keeping me from trying this. I want to start with a sun down fast for one day since I have never done anything like this before and then increase. Since I have a job, family and many obligations throughout the day, I need to know: 1. My day includes contact with many people and responsibilities to others, do I have to stop all of this and isolate myself in prayer? 1. Do I have to pray the entire time? 2. Can I read or watch Bible Study videos during this time? 3. What about my normal household duties that must be completed each day? Do I just not do them? 4. Do I isolate myself and cut off contact from others during this time? I have read about fasting and watched videos and have not found one that addresses these questions. This video is the closest I have found, but my questions are still unanswered. Please help me. . .
I agreed with you!! My first time fasting and the first 5days was sooooo hard, I look depressed and my face was all dry 🤷🏾♀️🤣 but now I got the hang of it after reading Isaiah.. cause I was still in the space of knowing what is the right way to fast without going on hunger strike lol.. thanks
Daniel went on 21day fast only eating veggies and drinking water and he did not anoint himself for 21days. No fragrance he denied the flesh and fed only his spirit. That’s awesome
You are so right on all points! No selfish prayers! G-d's will! In Judaism, we believe your body belongs to G-d and you are the steward of that vessel. Fasting is not only an expression of faith, but a time for sincere prayer and reflection, and to honor Him. No need to draw attention to your fasting, because you're doing it for Him not for recognition.
I feel like a failure at fasting! I can usually get through most of the day without food, but when I come home from work I most of the time give up. Maybe I shouldn’t be fasting?
Well the first thing I would ask you is why wouldn't it be God's will? I think anything that will make you a better person and that will make you a blessing to others is always God's will. He wants the best for you, and I sure hope you get that space. Will be praying for you x
Natasha, the book of Proverbs says that in a multitude of counselors plans succeed. Perhaps you could ask the elder sof the church you attend to pray with you and ask The LORD for guidance. You might also look into the personality/career assessment offered by Career Direct.
Hi i just wondering about the time how long i gonna spend the time to pray ,and when is the end of day and time i sopposed to end the fasting for 3 days w/out eating ??
I don't know about that but I know most times, it's good to start in the morning. If you'd like to start off light, perhaps you can do half day? i.e 6am to 12 in the afternoon?
I agree with you on the fasting for the first time lol. I would tell everyone. Would make faces to let people know that I'm strong and a good Christian coz I fast. What a time that was lol. I'm glad I'm more educated now. I may not know everything, but I know.more than before. God bless you and amen.
Thanks for the tips! I most importantly thing i took from this video is praying more thought the day. I subconsciously play because i know it's only by the grace of god I'm able to fast successfully, but I needed to use the fasting as a perfect time to pray about the things I need help with!
Yes this works. It’s the enemy who targets marriages because it is a covenant recognized by God. More people need to fight for their marriage and stand in the gap. The enemy is having it far too easy breaking up marriages with weak to no foundation in God. I speak from experience. It is spiritual warfare. The Lord led me to do the same thing as @n8vscience84 and He was faithful to restore our marriage and bring my husband to repentance and back home. He also worked on us both individually so we could have true restoration. We’re still a work in progress but Jesus is our Lord! We’re now 23 years married. That was 21 years ago. 😁
@@justalilpink9764 No she is doing the right thing. If you believe in God then you should understand the spiritual warfare is real. Look at the divorce rate. Look at all the children broken from their broken homes. Chances are you move onto someone else and that relationship will fail too because evil is running rampant in our society today and many many people have become lovers of themselves. She needs to hold on and ask God to restore it.
Fasting is not only food ,fasting is depriving yourself from something you love most for example can be social media,Can be watching television,can be Sex,Anything that you feel you love doing the most.
It is good to fast but I have never been able to do a proper fast, but I am trying to get there. One question I want to ask is about praying during the fast, is okay to say you have had a fast, if one prays extensively in the morning and then reads the Bible, sings to God almost every thirty minutes in a day and finally breaks at 6pm and prays for one hour?
I enjoyed this video I'm one day two of my fast and I'm planning on doing 3 days first day I was praying throughout the day and it got me through day two I noticed I was thinking about food and when I was going to break my fast but when you mentioned to pray throughout the day it really helps me make it through you go girl!
Thanks for the tips! Doing my first Prayer and Fast and want to make sure I am inline with the word so I been reading the Bible and doing a lot of research. The tips you gave and were very helpful. I subscribed to your channel and will check out some more of your content.
Christine Vest like if i fast for two weeks would it be one week for one thing and another week for another? I'm sorry for asking these questions I'm just really wanting to know, thank you very much sweetheart
jeremy simoni of course! Your agreement with God is YOURS. I don't see why not fast for both of your petitions since you will be fasting for two weeks, but you know why you choose what you choose. But yes, you can divide it. A fast is a fast even if its for an hour
The key to following God is to do HIS will not yours. You always have to do what the words says EVEN if it doesn't line up with who you are. The words says to fast in secret, wash your face and don't tell people you are fasting. we have to obey his word.
Hey so i was wondering, can you devote an entire fast to praying for one person? Or does it not work like that? There is a lost person in my life who ï desperately want to come to Jesus, but i thought its mostly their choice, not God’s so can I fast for this person?
John chapter 14... and what ever u ask in my name, that I will do, that the father May be glorified in the son.if you ask anything in my name,I will do it... He say anything..... He never tell us what not to ask him for that was a promise
So can I pray for my moms Visa? Can I fast for this? Sorry I'm just very very new to this I've never done it before and only know one person who has. also her visa is not the only thing I'm fasting for I just dont want to waste my time praying for it when I can pray for something else
Thank you for pointing out that no one should know you're fasting according to the Bible. Great tips!. God will provide your needs, so you don't need to ask for money...ask for opportunities to spread the Gospel...the Lord will take care of the rest! Bible says don't worry about those other things.
I’m also fasting BUT not from food BUT from social media like insta en Snapchat en now i really see how much time i’m spending on those apps and all the time that i have now i infest it in the kingdom of God I recommend fasting from social media to people because I’m finally aware from al the time I’m actually wasting

Yess i totally agree
Even when we are at our lowest,God is there for us;He is our father
I think she simply means just to ask for forgiveness
Thanks
Dont expect your first fast to be A Perfect one.
Learn From The Mistakes You Made in your first fast so you can perfect the Next one.
🇿🇲 fasting for our generation and the next generation to hunger for God
I'm in agreement with you
Thank you

@@foreverrachel get in touch with me please
Its farting you're talking about not stupid fasting I'm getting the pong
I feel like a prayer is a prayer regardless, I feel like God appreciates whatever time we put in to prayer
I recently started fasting and praying. And tip #1. Hit home for me. Making sure whatever I am praying for is in accordance to God's will.

Can you fast from 6 pm to 6 pm the next day like starting off small
I don't know about that but I know most times, it's good to start in the morning. If you'd like to start off light, perhaps you can do half day? i.e 6am to 12 in the afternoon?
Yes, whatever GOD put on your heart. Normally starting off in the Morning is good because if you eat all day then it defeats the fast

Christine Vest like if i fast for two weeks would it be one week for one thing and another week for another? I'm sorry for asking these questions I'm just really wanting to know, thank you very much sweetheart
jeremy simoni of course! Your agreement with God is YOURS. I don't see why not fast for both of your petitions since you will be fasting for two weeks, but you know why you choose what you choose. But yes, you can divide it. A fast is a fast even if its for an hour
Absolutely
When you fast sis what time you eat?
Thank you so much.
Thank you so much, Rachel! 💖
You're definitely welcome :)
I do tell people that I am fasting, but I am mostly an open person and try to show them that it is okay to fast.
Peach, I think that that is in line with righteousness as you are showing it to help, rather than meaninglessly boasting, have a good fast!
But what does the God say regarding that?
The key to following God is to do HIS will not yours. You always have to do what the words says EVEN if it doesn't line up with who you are. The words says to fast in secret, wash your face and don't tell people you are fasting. we have to obey his word.
Thank you so much for this video. It made me just look within and check if im doing it the right way. Continue being blessed.
When you're fasting, how should you pray? Is it okay to pray for whatever is bothering you or on your heart or should it be praise?
I think fasting should be a combination of both of these things. All the best! x
Good advice. Thank you!!
im fasting for God to make our relationship stronger and if he is willing too give me the holy spirit
Definitely one of my fave bloggers 💕 you're so beautiful and inspiring
Aww! This made my day, you're so kind.
Could you please explain that ' praying for husband ' part ? I am praying for my husband , is that not in line with the will of God ?
Love this!!
Thank you my beautiful sister. Are you from Zim or SA by any chance (accent sounds like home :))?
Lol! Well I'm originally from Zambia, but I lived in S.A for a long time. Maybe that explains the accent x
Beautiful girl, wise words x
Thank you so much :)
You are so beautiful, thank you for the tips x
Thank you and God bless!
Bridget McIntyre Aww you’re amazing. God bless you too ❤️
Have you guys ever had god talk to you? I mean literally. Do you audibly hear gods voice?
I agree with everything that you mentioned
Are you allowed to drink during your fast
Sister Rachel, all the tips were superb 🤝🙏. May the Lord give us grace to fast until we get the results.😨
Your video was very helpful. Thanks
Thank God :)
What if people ask you if your fasting?
Well, then I think that's a bit different. You could always respond in a mature way with that kind of question :)
How do you fast And pray while at work? Without doing "hunger strike"
Hey so i was wondering, can you devote an entire fast to praying for one person? Or does it not work like that? There is a lost person in my life who ï desperately want to come to Jesus, but i thought its mostly their choice, not God’s so can I fast for this person?
John chapter 14... and what ever u ask in my name, that I will do, that the father May be glorified in the son.if you ask anything in my name,I will do it...
He say anything..... He never tell us what not to ask him for that was a promise
So can I pray for my moms Visa? Can I fast for this?
Sorry I'm just very very new to this I've never done it before and only know one person who has. also her visa is not the only thing I'm fasting for I just dont want to waste my time praying for it when I can pray for something else
Beautifully done!
Can I eat fruits and vegetables?
Really love this ❤Thank you so much .
love the hair do 😍
Thanks queen, I appreciate it.
Thank you for pointing out that no one should know you're fasting according to the Bible. Great tips!. God will provide your needs, so you don't need to ask for money...ask for opportunities to spread the Gospel...the Lord will take care of the rest! Bible says don't worry about those other things.
Love this Video , it was encouraging
Aww well, now I'm happy :D
Can we take milk while fasting?
