Fasting helps bring the soul under subjection
A spiritual man is a man who’s spirit has the highest control over the soul and body
Being before the Lord and fasting is not the same
Fasting = waiting on the Lord
If God is with you, you don’t fast -God is in you, not necessarily with you
We fast to bring down God’s manifest presence
We do not use fasting to coerce God but rather to sharpen our spirit and gifts
When Moses was before the Lord, he didn’t fast because the life in God’s presence kept him
