Have you been in a season of transition or change lately? One of the great benefits of fasting is pressing in to hear God's voice. A word from God gives us encouragement, alignment and direction, and we need this spiritual sustenance – especially when we sense something new is on the horizon.

What is your best advice for someone who is new to fasting? Start small and gradually increase the duration and intensity of your fast. The goal is not primarily physical (although your physical body can receive great benefits from fasting) but it’s about building up your spirit and drawing closer to the Lord.

Whether you’ve fasted many times before or you’re brand new to fasting, you have a valuable experience to share. Read more about others experiences with fasting and consider sharing your own story.

In this post, we’ll talk about how long your fast could be, what the Bible says about how long Daniel fasted, and the significance of numbers in the Bible.

There are many plant-based sources of protein that will ensure you get all the nutrients you need while on your Daniel Fast.
