Fasting for . . .

 


God calls us to fast for good.

 

 

Isaiah 58:6-7 (MEV)
Is not this the fast that I have chosen:
to loose the bonds of wickedness,
to undo the heavy burdens,
and to let the oppressed go free,
and break every yoke?

Is it not to divide your bread with the hungry
and bring the poor who are outcasts into your house?

Fasting — it’s more than what you give up.
