The meaning of fasting you don't know.

Regardless of faith, fasting has health benefits. It cleanses from toxins, decongests the intestines. Christians fast for various reasons. One of them is to "force" their prayers, requests on God. Of course, as if not to write much about it, fasting has, in part, the power to blend in spiritual warfare as Daniel did.

However, there is also another reason:

 

The fact that fasting frees our body from toxins and impurities that have a better effect on health is also reflected in the spirit. As we pray to the Lord, He through the Spirit reveals to us the toxic and impure things in our lives that hinder our walk with Him. Allow the Holy Spirit to shine a light on these things through prayer and fasting and submit to His will.

Just giving up sweets for a while not only cleanses us of toxins, but tempers our lusts.

A few people closest to me on the blog once in a while use fasting or do the Daniel diet. I am aware that not everyone can do it, e.g. soldiers, but I am not writing about the minority here.

I myself have had about a dozen one-day water fasts in my Christian life, as well as two three-day fasts.

Knowing a wide spectrum of readers, I do not advise starvation to someone who drinks a lot of coffee or often drinks large amounts of alcohol or eats a lot of meat. The toxins released will give you a nightmarish headache.
