How do you fast?

Question

I want to fast for the first time like next month or so but idk how. I read online and it says to eat one or two meals a week or something? Idk can someone please help and explain

Answer

Basically you’re starving your flesh to feed your spirit. You can fast from food, social media, tv... anything really. 
What I suggest since it’s your first time, is to fast from food for 6 hours after you wake up. Don’t fast just to fast, give it a name & purpose. 
I used to wake up at 6am & start with a prayer, Some worship music while I did my morning routine (brushing teeth, shower getting dressed) then spend some time in the word. The Bible app has some devotionals you could follow. I would eat a light salad at 12. I did that for a week straight to see if I could handle it & it was quite nice. 
You could journal your spiritual goals.
You could also do this with a friend. I know the day I did with my bff we cried & worshipped God together in my room! It was beautiful.

Answer

You can fast anything. I love to read, so I once did a fast if reading (outside the Bible of course). Many people will do social media too. It’s basically just giving up something you enjoy to spend more time focusing on prayer.
