Living A Fast Life

Writer's picture: Pastor ClarkPastor Clark

“In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three full weeks. I ate no pleasant food, no meat or wine came into my mouth, nor did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.”

‭‭Daniel‬ ‭10‬:‭2‬-‭3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬


The Daniel Fast is a spiritual discipline that involves restricting one's diet in a specific way for a set period of time. It is based on the biblical account of the prophet Daniel, who abstained from certain foods for a period of time as a way of seeking God and deepening his spiritual life.


The Daniel Fast typically involves abstaining from certain foods, such as meat, sweets, and processed foods, and eating only foods that are plant-based and unprocessed. The fast typically lasts for 21 days, and during this time, participants are encouraged to spend time in prayer, Bible study, and other spiritual practices.


The purpose of the Daniel Fast is not to lose weight or improve one's health, although these can be positive side effects. The primary purpose is to draw closer to God and to focus on spiritual growth. The fast is seen as a way of denying oneself certain physical pleasures in order to focus on spiritual things.


There are no specific rules or guidelines for the Daniel Fast, and individuals or groups who participate may make their own decisions about what foods to eat and what activities to engage in during the fast. Some people may choose to follow a very strict diet, while others may be more lenient.


The important thing is to have a heart attitude of seeking God and denying oneself for the sake of spiritual growth.


*Remember to read Isiah 58 which is regarded as the Fasting Chapter in the Bible.
