Mat 6:2 When therefore thou doest alms…
Mat 6:5 And when ye pray…
Mat 6:16 Moreover when ye fast…
When you do alms.
When you pray.
When you fast.
Jesus didn’t say “if” on any of these.
A lot of people believe doing alms is a good thing, and praying? Well yes, of course I pray.
Fasting? Ohhhhh… I don’t really need to do that. It’s not that important.
The only thing I would suggest is starting with no more than 24 hours. If you’re going to get a little woosy, do it when you’ll be home all day so you can lay down for a while if needed.
When you are going to start, eat a light meal for your last meal. don’t stuff yourself. And after the 24 hours, don’t stuff yourself then either.
Just fast and pray and listen for God to speak to you.
Don’t expect anything huge the first time.
