Corporate Fasting: The author explains the true essence of a corporate fast, he said, "If your heart is right and you're open to The Lord and you're asking him, Lord, draw me into the spirt of awakening through fasting,' he will show you. He'll show you when and how." (Page 16) So if you are wondering should I fast, or when should I fast, seek the Lord in prayer.
Fasting & prayer gets our focus on God, it shifts our hunger and desire towards God and I personally need that. We all have our own level of understanding and "opinions" about fasting & prayer. In terms of the corporate fast that is going on now, I wished that we would have started studying this book together earlier like maybe in January to help get us in one accord to do this together...in the direction that God may be leading us individually but at the same time corporately. This is a good read and I find myself going back over certain parts so its taking me more time than expected to get through it.

I too find this book very interesting and has begun reading it for the second time. It is so fascinating to reveal the many ways to fast. My walk with God has really become even more meaningful to me as I walk closer with God during my cravings for certain foods.
