Fasting & Praying GuideSample
The psalmist invites us to “taste and see that the Lord is good” (Ps. 34:8a). What does it actually mean to taste the goodness of God? What would it mean for you to know deep within (even in your empty gut!) what the psalmist says elsewhere: We have an opportunity in the coming weeks to cleanse our palates, which have grown too fond of lesser tastes, so that we can experience afresh the sweet taste of the goodness of our God and His Word.
Reflection:
As you set out on this fast, in what areas of your life do you need to step back, so Jesus can step forward?

About this Plan
This 21-day fasting and prayer guide will look first at the example of Jesus’ fasting and temptation in the wilderness. Then we will draw out important biblical teachings to edify our souls as we fast from food and feast on God. The goal is to experience what it means to live not by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matt. 4:4).
