Job23:12
"I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food".
As we embark on this fast there is a NSW farmer Peter Spencer who has just ended his 52 day hunger strike. Now that's a long time to go without food to get attention and prove a point.
The christian fast isn't a hunger strike, so just going without food is not the goal of these 14 days. As we dethrone whatever we believe God wants us to go without we must replace it with time reading the word of God and drawing closer to Christ, if we don't then we are no different to a farmer on a hunger strike.
