God's Chosen Fast

Summary

The sermon explores the biblical concept of fasting, emphasizing that while the New Testament does not command fasting, it assumes believers will fast as a means of drawing closer to God. The speaker highlights the importance of fasting with the right heart—privately and humbly before God rather than for public recognition. Isaiah 58 is examined to show that true fasting involves acts of justice, mercy, and obedience, not merely abstaining from food. Ultimately, fasting is presented as a spiritual discipline that leads to greater intimacy with God and His guidance.
