Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Christians are unaware of what God expects from them when they fast. Many do not know the work that transpires when they fast and leave it up to chance, being uncertain that God will respond to them. Even more, many do not know what to expect from God after they fast, and so they overlook His blessed responses. In Fasting Gods Way, author and reverend Clayton Driggs shows us how God has given clear instructions about how we should fast-and why we should. The Bible reveals how God made fasting one of the most important things we should do, and Reverend Driggs explains that this is why a proper understanding of fasting should be restored in church congregations everywhere. Since fasting is a demonstration of love for God and others, we all should learn how to avoid illegitimate fasting and prepare our lives for fruitful, restorative fasts. By understanding the dos and donts of fasting-as well as the whys and hows-you will discover the keys to powerful and effective fasting. God has expectations of us when we fast, and if we meet these expectations, then we can look forward to results every time we fast. We must first truly understand how to fast Gods way, and know what to expect, then fasting can be a springboard to the many great exploits God desires to accomplish through us. So let Fasting Gods Way become a springboard for knowledge about fasting, and the start of a healthy fasting lifestyle.

Download or read book A Hunger for God written by John Piper and published by Inter-Varsity Press. This book was released on 2013-04-23 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an appetite for God. And it can be awakened. I invite you to turn from the dulling effects of food and the dangers of idolatry, and to say with some simple fast: "This much, O God, I want you." Our appetites dictate the direction of our lives - whether it be the cravings of our stomachs, the passionate desire for possessions or power, or the longings of our spirits for God. But for the Christian, the hunger for anything besides God can be an arch-enemy. While our hunger for God - and Him alone - is the only thing that will bring victory. Do you have that hunger for Him? As John Piper puts it: "If we don't feel strong desires for the manifestation of the glory of God, it is not because you have drunk deeply and are satisfied. It is because we have nibbled so long at the table of the world. Our soul is stuffed with small things, and there is no room for the great." If we are full of what the world offers, then perhaps a fast might express, or even increase, our soul's appetite for God. Between the dangers of self-denial and self-indulgence is this path of pleasant pain called fasting. It is the path John Piper invites you to travel in this book. For when God is the supreme hunger of your heart, He will be supreme in everything. And when you are most satisfied in Him, He will be most glorified in you.
