When should you fast, and why does it matter? Drawing from examples in Daniel 9, Ezra 8, Esther 4, Acts 13, and Matthew 4, Pastor Andrew shows that fasting is not about earning God's favor or proving your spirituality. It is about aligning your heart with God's will, removing distractions, and approaching Him with humility and sincerity. The guiding principle runs through the entire passage: your audience determines your reward.
