Prayer and fasting is defined as a voluntary going without food in order to focus on prayer and fellowship with God. Prayer and fasting often go hand in hand, but this is not always the case. You can pray without fasting and fasting without prayer. It is when these two activities are combined and dedicated to God’s glory that they reach their full effectiveness. Having the dedicated time for prayer and fasting is not a way of manipulating God into doing what you desire. Rather, it is a simply forcing yourself to focus and rely on God for the strength, provision and wisdom you need.
