Is fasting just about skipping meals — or is there something deeper happening spiritually? In this episode, we break down what biblical fasting actually means, why it's not the same as intermittent fasting, and how the Bible connects fasting to prayer, repentance, and spiritual warfare.
We explore the 40-day fasts of Moses, Elijah, and Jesus, the connection to the Mount of Transfiguration, and why Jesus said some battles can only be won through prayer and fasting. Plus: what a media fast can reveal about your habits, why fasting "sucks" (and why that's the point), and how to make this discipline a lifestyle — not just a crisis response.
📖 Key Scriptures: Exodus 34, Matthew 4, Deuteronomy 8, Isaiah 58, Mark 9, Matthew 6, 1 Kings 19, Nehemiah 9, 1 Corinthians 9
