Our body is the dwelling place of the Spirit Of God. No wonder the Apostle Paul said to present your body as a living sacrifice, (Rom. 12:1a) Fasting is part of the discipline of being a disciple of Jesus Christ. So when you study and pray, incorporate fasting at periodic, but routine times so that you can easily silence the voice of your flesh, and allow your spirit, that’s connected with God’s Spirit to dominate your thinking and your actions.
Isaiah 58:11
11The LORD will always guide you;
He will satisfy you in a sun-scorched land
and strengthen your frame.
You will be like a well-watered garden,
like a spring whose waters never fail.
