John Mark Comer Teachings To Pray | Fasting E2
Prayer With The Whole Body
- Fasting combines body and soul to amplify prayer and make seeking more whole-personal.
- John Mark Comer calls fasting
Do you ever feel stuck in prayer? As if there is a wall between you and heaven? In this teaching, John Mark shows us different ways that fasting can be used in combination with prayer. Using examples from the Scriptures, he shows us five different ways that people fast and pray: to repent, to grieve, to cry out to God in a crisis, to ask God to relent, and to know God's mind when making decisions. John Mark concludes by reminding us that this practice, like all the practices, is about building our relationship with God, and encourages us to keep pressing in even when it's hard.
