If you want to learn even more about the biblical basis for fasting, get more in-depth information on what to eat, and find a day meal plan with recipes then consider picking up a copy of the Daniel Fast Journey book. The Bible has a lot to say about fasting!
The Old and New Testaments are full of stories of people fasting for different lengths of time and for a variety of reasons including mourning, repentance, and seeking direction and clarity. I did not eat any tasty food, nor did meat or wine enter my mouth, nor did I use any ointment at all until the entire three weeks were completed. So these are three different examples of times when Daniel abstained from food.
Lengths of time include ten days, twenty-one days, and an unspecified length of time in Chapter 9. In this setting, Daniel and his friends had been taken from Jerusalem to Babylon to serve in the court of King Nebuchadnezzar. And one thing that was consistent about Daniel throughout His life was this: He worshiped God at all times and without compromise, always putting Him first.
Daniel fasted to remain undefiled, to repent for the sins of his people, and to draw closer to God. We can apply these same principles and motivation in our own fasting journey. Ask yourself the following questions:. See Daniel Am I aware of and broken by the sin and unrighteousness in the world around me, and is my response to seek God in prayer and fasting? See Daniel 9 Chapter 9. If you have a medical condition or are undergoing any medical treatments it is advisable to first consult your physician.
You may also want to pray, consult a mature Christian or your pastor before fasting. Remember, fasting should be periodically and for limited days.
