“Get Out of the Boat – Why Fast? You need to Get Out of the Boat and this is another opportunity to step out in faith. Praying and fasting is not obsolete. When we pray and fast we hear more clearly from God. If more believers would return to these time tested practices and put off the distractions of the world and earnestly seek to hear from God, our culture would look different.The reason we fast is to humble ourselves before God so we can better hear His voice. This message leads us through what scripture tells about Fasting.
