Types of Fasts
Our fasting scriptures: Matthew 6:16-18, Matthew 9:14-15, Luke 18:9-14, Nehemiah 9:1-3
Partial Fast
Typically this fast is done from a set start time to an end time. For example, 6am-3pm, or from sun up to sun down. During the fasting window choose what fast you will practice (Full Fast, Daniel Fast, or Selective Fast).
Selective Fast
This fast consists of removing certain food items of your choice from your diet, while consuming water or all natural juices. Intermittent fasting can also be used with selective fasting.
Daniel Fast
Eat no meat, no sweets, and no bread. Drink only water and juice. Eat only fruits and vegtables. This can be done for a series of days or the entire fast.
Search for Daniel fast recipes online or for other snack ideas.
Full Fast
Abstain from all foods. Drink only liquids (water, all natural fruit juices, etc). Avoid alcohol, caffeine, or other sugar heavy drinks. Observe this fast for the 21 days or alternate between the types of fasts. Seek advice from doctor for prolonged fasting.
Soul Fast
This is a great option for those who have never fasted from food before, or have health issues that prevent them from fasting from food. A soul fast focuses on abstaining from certain types of media for a set period of time and replacing that time with spending time with God. This fast lends itself to the spiritual practice of solitude and silence.
