Unlocking Spiritual Strength: Pastor Tony Chick on Fasting

If we're fasting with the right motives, it brings us in to a place where the spiritual, the things of the spirit, will predominate- our mind.
Ever wondered how fasting can shape your spiritual journey? In this episode of Benchmark Church's podcast, Pastor Tony Chick unpacks the profound impact fasting can have on our spiritual health. He kicks off with a heartfelt prayer for John, a member of their congregation facing health struggles, setting a compassionate tone for the episode.
Pastor Tony then shares his personal experience with an app called iDisciple, highlighting how it has enriched his spiritual content consumption and deepened his connection with God. Moving forward, Pastor Tony explores six key themes related to fasting. He delves into some intense scripture passages, sheds light on the enemy's tactics to confine us within the church walls, and underscores the need for consecration and repentance.
Throughout, he emphasizes the importance of fasting with pure intentions and how this practice can help us overcome life's hurdles. One of the most compelling parts of the episode is when Pastor Tony recounts the story of Jesus' baptism and illustrates how fasting played a crucial role in preparing for public ministry. His insights offer a fresh perspective on the spiritual dimensions of fasting and its potential to bring us closer to God.
The episode wraps up with a call to walk closely with God and a prayer for all listeners. If you're curious about how fasting can enhance your spiritual life, this episode is a must-listen.
