Matendu 13:2-3

Join Hillsong East Coast’s online experience and walk through this corresponding plan. This plan is based on Pastor Brian Houston's December 2020 message, "The Contagious Nature of the Church". Read through God’s Word within each devotional and reflect through guided questions for both individual consideration and group discussion. We pray it encourages you to reframe your reality.

Fasting is not just an attempt to please God. It is a spiritual practice that brings about the supernatural and releases power in the most unexpected ways. Throughout Scripture, fasting positioned people for breakthrough, clarity, deliverance, strength and encounters with God. There are dimensions of spiritual power and sensitivity that are only unlocked through prayer and fasting. Never reduce fasting to religion. It is a weapon. It is surrender. It is hunger for God that makes room for the supernatural to move.

This reading plan takes you through some of the themes in the "Clean (part 2)" episode of The Chosen TV Series. Reflect, dive into the Bible, and enjoy what Jesus has to say to you.

Discover the transformative power of fasting as a spiritual discipline that awakens hunger for God. This four-day journey explores how stepping into intentional lack helps us move past complacency and experience God's sustaining presence. Based on Matthew 6 and drawing from Scripture, each day offers practical insights into fasting in secret, storing up heavenly treasures, and cultivating a regular rhythm of spiritual hunger. Whether you're new to fasting or seeking to deepen this practice, you'll be challenged to pursue intimacy with God and discover that He truly is the bread of life who satisfies our deepest longings.
