Some good books are "God's Chosen Fast", and "The Coming Revival". On the latter, Mr. Bill Bright was off on his predection, but it still has some good info on fasting, although he is somewhat precautious of suggesting "radical fasts"....ie, a 40 day fast, water only.
....the fast that God would choose.It's found in your bible. Read all of Isaiah 58.
Yes Isaiah 58 is great. But no 1 has answered my question. :-( YeshuaIsMyGd wrote:Is there any good articles and downloads here on Fasting?I've fasted before. And im just curious are there any here? (exspecially downloads)
No one gave you the answer you wanted to hear.Lahry
It may not be 'Google' but the search function...Fasting (Edit:) Not quite an 'article' but...This may pertain and think Lahry's refrence is ultimately at bottom if it could be looked at in the essence of the verse; (Cannot see any way of segregating this, so I recant, the whole of it...)Isa 58:1 Cry aloud, spare not, lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins. Isa 58:2 Yet they seek me daily, and delight to know my ways, as a nation that did righteousness, and forsook not the ordinance of their God: they ask of me the ordinances of justice; they take delight in approaching to God. Isa 58:3 Wherefore have we fasted, say they, and thou seest not? wherefore have we afflicted our soul, and thou takest no knowledge? Behold, in the day of your fast ye find pleasure, and exact all your labours. Isa 58:4 Behold, ye fast for strife and debate, and to smite with the fist of wickedness: ye shall not fast as ye do this day, to make your voice to be heard on high. Isa 58:5 Is it such a fast that I have chosen? a day for a man to afflict his soul? is it to bow down his head as a bulrush, and to spread sackcloth and ashes under him? wilt thou call this a fast, and an acceptable day to the LORD? Isa 58:6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke? Isa 58:7 Is it not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? Isa 58:8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. Isa 58:9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; Isa 58:10 And if thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness be as the noonday: Isa 58:11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. Isa 58:12 And they that shall be of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. Isa 58:13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking thine own words: Isa 58:14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken it.

Because, i already stated 'ive fasted before' I've been on a 7 day (just water) and a 10 day (just water). But i wanted ADDITIONAL stories....devo.....articles or SOMETHING different than what i already know.I know the Daniel fast...i know what the bible goes about it.Again, im a straight forward kinda guy.... i asked a question..means i need THAT answer..not something else... lolI'm not a amature in Fasting, i just wanted something with Meat(spiritual meat) with Fasting.Crsschk answered my question, but at the bottom. (This link).And im going to be listening to it. Very long, but thats what i asked for.Again, is there any addition 'more indepht' stuff on fasting (or ANYTHING on fasting on this site) or Any site for that matter.I'm not asking for the 'basics' but something more mature at its nature. Like the Derek Prince thing, id like to hear that ...but it sounds like a book..and i have ENOUGH books to read as it is. Anything short that i could read...or something that i could listen to..anywhere..
