Q & A

Why do some people experience breakthroughs while fasting and others do not?

The difference lies in avoiding five critical mistakes that many Christians make during fasting. These mistakes hinder the spiritual progress and effectiveness of the fast.

What is the first major mistake Christians make when fasting?

The first mistake is speaking negative words that contradict the very things you are fasting for. Negative confessions can cancel the breakthrough you’re believing for.

How can words affect the outcome of your fast?

Words during fasting have creative power in the spiritual realm. Proverbs 18:21 reminds us that life and death are in the power of the tongue. Negative words can derail your breakthrough, while positive confessions can help build faith.

What happened to Zacharias in Luke 1, and how does it relate to fasting?

Zacharias questioned the angel’s promise of a son, and as a result, he lost his ability to speak. His negative confession threatened his breakthrough, illustrating how critical it is to align your words with your faith during fasting.

What does Mary’s response in Luke 1 teach us about faith during fasting?

Mary responded with faith, saying, 'Be it unto me according to thy word.' Unlike Zacharias, she did not doubt, and her faith led to her becoming the mother of the Messiah. This shows that positive confession and trust in God's promises can lead to powerful outcomes.

What is the second deadly mistake that ruins fasting?

The second mistake is continuing in sin while fasting. Sin creates spiritual 'static' that can block communication between your spirit and God, hindering the effectiveness of your fast.

How does sin during fasting affect the results of the fast?

Sin gives the enemy legal ground to block your breakthrough, making it essential to live a repentant life and avoid sin during fasting. Isaiah 58:3-4 highlights that fasting while indulging in sin nullifies the effectiveness of your prayers.

What does Isaiah 58:3-4 teach us about fasting with integrity?

Isaiah 58:3-4 stresses that fasting should be done with a pure heart, not while indulging in sin or selfish desires. It underscores the need for consistency between one’s lifestyle and spiritual practices.

What is the third deadly mistake during fasting?

The third mistake is failing to keep the vows you make during your fast. Promises made to God, such as tithing or serving, should be honored once the breakthrough comes, as failure to do so can result in the loss of what was gained.

What does Ecclesiastes 5:4-6 say about making vows to God?

Ecclesiastes 5:4-6 warns that making vows to God and not fulfilling them is a serious matter. Failing to keep vows can lead to the destruction of the breakthrough that was received, so vows during fasting should be treated with utmost seriousness.

What is the fourth deadly mistake to avoid while fasting?

The fourth mistake is breaking your fast prematurely due to external pressure. Often, others may encourage you to stop fasting early, but doing so can hinder the manifestation of a breakthrough that was already in motion.

How does the story of Daniel’s 21-day fast illustrate the importance of perseverance?

Daniel fasted for 21 days, and despite the breakthrough being in motion from day one, he did not give up. His perseverance led to a significant revelation. Prematurely breaking a fast, especially just before a breakthrough, can cause you to miss what God is about to do.

What is the fifth deadly mistake that ruins fasting?

The fifth mistake is fasting with the wrong motives, such as to manipulate God or to seek selfish gain. True fasting aligns your will with God’s will, not the other way around.

What does Isaiah 58:6 reveal about the purpose of fasting?

Isaiah 58:6 reveals that fasting is meant to loose the bands of wickedness, undo heavy burdens, and set the oppressed free. The purpose of fasting is to align oneself with God's will, seeking His glory rather than personal comfort or desires.

What is the key to successful fasting according to the script?

The key to successful fasting is maintaining pure motives, avoiding sin, speaking life-giving words, keeping your vows, and persevering through the process without succumbing to external pressure. Fasting is about seeking God’s face and aligning with His purposes.
