I repent and ask God to help me to heal every infirmity. That I believe I have caused by what I put in my mouth. The problem is Everyone has an opinion. I definitely do better not eating at all and its probably the grellon. If I eat any little thing it makes me hungrier sooner but if I obstain it makes it easier. I wish I knew what is best for me eating wise once we finish this fast. Any suggestions. I really enjoyed your discussion. Thank you!

I attempted the 40 day fast about a year after I was saved. I went into the wilderness and planted myself there. By day 18 I was so depressed and almost dead. Apart from being completely emaciated my body for some reason was rejecting water and it actually seemed to be poisoning me and I would get horrifically nauseated about an hour after drinking even the smallest amount (I did not know about adding salt at that time--maybe that was the reason?). But by day 18, instead of breaking the fast, I got the idea of getting fruits and sucking the juice out of them. So I stocked up and sucked juice out of mostly oranges and some watermelon (trying to use moderation--only 4-8 oranges a day). The physical and spiritual transformation was supernatural. I felt like a flower blooming out of the grave. I couldn't stop praising and worshiping God, with laughing and crying and singing and dancing. I ended up going 50 days. Since then I have done other types of fasts, including a 7 day dry fast, but I always wanted to go back and achieve the 40 with just water. So now I am following the 21 day challenge (the church God just led me to, Genesis church in Roseville, CA is also participating! Prayer and worship services every evening! Hallelujah!!) and if I feel the Lord's blessing I will definitely be continuing on. Bless you so much for your spiritual insight, expertise, and encouragement for the BOC at large in this regard. May you receive many crowns in heaven! 🙌✝❤‍🔥

I'm actually concerned about my health if I'm to do a 24 hour fast because of my past history with gastritis, and also hypoglycemia. It's not a biblical fast but since I wanted to join the 21 days fast, I started fasting by skipping dinner then slowly I started eating once per day. Hopefully will go on to fast for a full day or more. Happy to be part of this fast 🙏🏻

But watching you speak today I realised I just lack knowledge and information.

Fear is the one thing that keeps us from experiencing the Lord more deeply.

Wow what a timely message!

[@michellejones8144]

Pastor Vlad, you hit the nail on the head. I did a 24 hour fast, no food or water and I went well. At the ending of the 24 hour, o felt as if I could go on and on, I didn’t feel hungry. The last 24 hour fast I did, I stuff myself to prepare, it’s like I could hear a voice say, “ you know better” but I carried on eating. The fast almost came to an early end because I was so hungry hours before my fasting ended. I am so glad that I’m listening to this because about to step into my next 24 hours. Pray for me.

It definitely can become mental health issue. My experience is an example. I was 19 and experienced mental health attack. I felt God called me to fast three days for deliverance. When I failed, I felt like a failure and like I could never eat. It was a struggle for years. God has brought deliverance over the years. I am slowly wanting to learn to fast correctly/healthy.

[@sadienyc]

Wow, excellent message today! Especially about food for health, God-given God-created food. And the sin of gluttony.

I believe that our churches need to start teaching on fasting like you do ! I've been involved in various churches over the years and NEVER ONCE did they discuss it or plan corporate fasting so I never even knew about how significant I is as part of Christian life!!!😮

[@laurinfarmer7384]

Thank you for this. I've been fasting 22 hours a day, with Daniel plan for the 2 hours I'm eating. I've had herbal tea and coffee, and God called me to fall forward with just water.

[@c-p1976]

I did an accidental fast for five days back in early 2018. I call it "my supernatural fast". The goal for me was to drink a gallon of water every day for five days to help with my health condition. On day five, about mid-way through the day, I realized I hadn't eaten the entire week! It was so wild to me. Who doesn't know they haven't eaten??? But I didn't. I'm thin and not food-motivated, so I think that's why it wasn't registering with me. Anyway, WOW, what came from that fast was absolutely amazing. I began having dreams and visions, and my spiritual senses were heightened to levels I never knew they could be. That experience led me on a journey of fasting as a lifestyle. God shows up! The most pushback I receive is from Christians. It's unreal. But I can say that God honors fasting, prayer, and reading of His word. It's changed my life!

[@jacobmarley4907]

This was a great teaching. I have issues with hypoglycemia, plus I take blood pressure medicine with a water pill, a beta blocker, and a statin. Hydration is my biggest challenge especially in summer. Gatorade has a new product called Gatorlyte that has more electrolytes than standard Gatorade. It is available in a sugar free version and will help with cramps and dizziness. It is non-nutritional and not considered a food. Vlad that was a good one "if if goes through a straw, it's under the law"! I never heard that one before. God bless you both.

[@llynnbe]

I smoke a vape. Have not been able to fast properly because of the smoking. Every time I try something happens and I go back to smoking. My prayer time is not like it once was. Really need some prayers. Not complaining just being honest. God is faithful, at the moment…I am not. Keep me in your prayers. Thank you For the videos.

[@markzimmerman9869]

How can I turn off the noise in my head while I am praying?

[@GitteThorup]

By commanding it out of you (in Jesus name). I also speak in tongues, since it really feels like being lit up by light inside. Also it helps me a lot to only speak when i feel i have to.

[@Dam_Ian22]

I also heard God's voice to fast for the things I prayed and I was rejecting this voice and I didn't fast. Now I'm starting to put it into practice and you brothers just encouraged me even more. I belive that we need to pray a lot as well while we fast. I went for a hike in freezing air and I felt uplifted in the Spirit

[@shaneidleman5067]

Yes. The whole point of fasting is to replace eating time with prayer time. If you don’t do that, it’ll simply be a weight loss program.

[@lindajohn845]

when we fast it's supposed to be time for us to spend time with God,through fast and praying andseeking the face of God, we should exact from all your labor, and worldly pleasures, etc. And spend all the days you are fasting with him praying, fasting Crucify the flesh, so that you can walk and live in the Spirit, if you are filled with the Holy Spirit. If not, you can be by fasting and praying. Read Isaiah 58:1-14 it explains how to fast and the kind of fast God has chosen Joel 2:12-14

[@Dam_Ian22]

Thank you Linda, it's hard to put aside all the labour, there are always things around me like today,Amy things to be done, but when I was praying today I also heard the voice to find a day or two, go to the mountains to look for solitude and exclusive time with God. That's motivating, thanks 🕊️🙌

I tried to fast. A 3 day water fast was the plan, with previous fasting. But day 2, I got nauseated when I took my medicine that morning and actually threw up when I took the second dose of seizure medicine. I want to not get sick and still take my medication. Because I want to be healed of epilepsy. And my favorite scripture is Matthew 19:26

[@magdalenadahlen9067]

Hi, the Lord healed me from psychogenic seizure disorder, I don't know how or when, but the medication I was taking ( zonidamide) was recalled. I didn't get around to go to the doctor for some reason and no medication for long time. After a while I realized the symptoms had not come back, except if I get very emotionally stressed I get what I call " the jitters" but no seizures and no constant jerky movements. This has been for a year or longer, am so grateful, it's all the Lord's great mercy. Trust in His mercy😊❤😊

[@Bojka-tb4pe]

I did 21 day water fast last year. I'm doing 10 day water fast this year, I am now on day 5. I have felt more challenged during this fast than last year, even though I thought I would be more prepared as I have done it in the past. Now I have learnt that challenges in life can come in different shapes and forms and that the devil can attack from every direction. But no matter what challenge I'm attacked with my spiritual faith remains the same. And no matter how prepared you think you are there is only one way can overcome all and that's Faith in our Lord and Savior. 🙏🏽

I loved this so much. I've always been a huge believer of physical and spiritual health both being incredibly important. Whenever I workout it's an act of worship. Fasting, or what I eat, how I eat it's all supernatural to me. I pray for wisdom and knowledge when it comes to ingredients of foods, and really hope to see more ministries in this area. Additionally, this year God has called me to fast a lot. I'm in a season of a long war. So I just purchased both Vlad and Shanes book on fasting thank you both for this message.
