In one of the best available books on the topic, Franklin explains the spiritual power of fasting and offers a deeper understanding of God’s plan for fasting and the benefi ts available to those who participate. Those who seek God through fasting can expect tremendous rewards both for their
personal lives and the church. They will see breakthroughs in many areas, such as healing, fi nances, bondages broken, and children set free. Jesus Himself fasted because He knew some supernatural realities could not be released in any other way. For that reason alone, Christians should
make fasting a common practice.
