Start off real slow. Purpose to go one day, I promise just seriously thinking about one single day without food and water will introduce you to the wiles of the Satan himself. Much of it is keeping it between you and God. Get back and let me know the little lies Satan tells you about why you can't do even this. You will be surprised. One example: "NATE, you going to do this just because some wierdo told you to on the internet?" "NATE, this isn't healthy!"
Matthew 6:16 Moreover when(not if) ye fast, be not, as the hypocrites, of a sad countenance: for they disfigure their faces, that they may appear unto men to fast. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
17 But thou, when thou fastest, anoint thine head, and wash thy face;
18 That thou appear not unto men to fast, but unto thy Father which is in secret: and thy Father, which seeth in secret, shall(not might, maybe, could) reward thee openly.
I cannot thank you enough for how you have helped me in the understanding of who that "devil" really is. ME!!
Believe me, the pleasure in so hearing a mind is all I require. This is a subject you can and should run with yourself.
1 Corinthians 9:25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we an incorruptible.
26 I therefore so run, not as uncertainly; so fight I, not as one that beateth the air:
27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway.
