We are told to count it “pure joy” when we encounter trials. Hard times produce perseverance, which forges character. Here are scriptures to pray when you need encouragement to persevere.

How do you pray when fasting? Fasting is about more than the food—or lack thereof! When we fast, it's vital to engage the Word of God, stay in an atmosphere of worship, and pray without ceasing.

With a blog and book on the Daniel Fast, I've heard many criticisms over the years that the Daniel Fast is not a "true" biblical fast. So, does it count? Is it just a Daniel diet? Have we watered down biblical fasting to make things more convenient

The Bible tells us to “fear not.” We aren’t overcome by the darkness around us, but we’re called to bring light and life to our communities!

Are you curious about what the Bible has to say about fasting? There are many examples of fasting in scripture throughout the Old and New Testaments.

Have you ever faced a challenging situation and felt like giving up? I know I have. Whether it's everyday life or during a time of fasting, prayers for strength are vital.

Have you ever read your Bible and wondered what it is to fast and pray? When I first heard about fasting in church, I didn't know anyone who fasted regularly. Although fasting is also popular for health and weight loss reasons, spiritual fasting has been practiced for thousands of years and is about more than your body - it also touches soul and spirit!

We've all had moments where we can't help but wonder if something is just a coincidence or if it's a divine appointment or sign from God. How do you hear God more clearly? Do you want to know Him better and see Him in all things?

What are the primary types of Christian fasts and what do they mean for us today? Let’s examine the biblical definition of fasting and other fasting terms you may have heard of.

You may have heard the saying, "It's not if you fast, but when you do." This comes from Matthew 6:16, where Jesus was teaching His disciples about prayer, giving, and fasting. The implication is that Christians should be prepared to fast.

The Old Testament mentions fasting on several occasions. This post is specifically about those instances of biblical fasting that are related to battle or fighting off enemies.

In this post, we’ll talk about how long your fast could be, what the Bible says about how long Daniel fasted, and the significance of numbers in the Bible.

The keys to this battle are staying anchored in the truth, rooted in love, believing the best of others, and being obedient to what God has called us to do. We have the responsibility to filter through and stand against the accusations, slander, and doubt the enemy tries to throw at us, “and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ” (2 Corinthians 10:2).
