How can something that is so important be so hard? Perhaps it's the importance that makes it so hard.

I'm talking about fasting, and Scriputure is clear, we'll never grow as much as we can or get as many answers to our prayers as we could without it. Think about this spiritual exercise as you do your physical exercise. You walk or run to get a cardiovascular workout, but to get the maximum physical benefit, you also need to add some weight training to build muscles in other parts of your body.

Similarly, you pray and read your Bible, but to get the maximum spiritual benefit, you need to add fasting to build strength in other areas of your life. Simply put, fasting helps put you (through God) in charge of your body, not your body in charge of you--and what freedom and power that brings.

So if you've got a prayer that really needs an answer or a problem that really needs to be solved or an area in your life you need to conquer, listen to broadcast 12. Then make fasting a regular part of your spiritual workout.
