Our society proclaims messages of ‘if it feels good do it”, or “live YOUR truth”, which fly in opposition to God’s truth and ways. This week we will explore how Biblical fasting is a call to seek God’s ways, and discover that He has so much more for us, like he did for Daniel, when we acknowledge Him!
Getting Started:
1. Share a time that you fasted, or intentionally said no to something in order to make
room for something better?
Digging Deeper - Daniel 1:8-16
2. Describe how you think Daniel felt, as he was faced with the plan for his life in verse 5.
3. What are some of the cultural temptations and tests that Daniel would have had to
face, being in the court and company of King Nebuchadnezzar?
4. How does the different motivations of the characters/groups in the story inform their
behaviours?
5. How does this passage reveal God’s working and plans for Daniel’s life?
6. What does Daniel’s behaviour reveal about his beliefs about God?
How To Apply This:
6. What cultural temptations and tests are you facing in your life, that may need you to
‘resolve not to defile yourself’ in?
7. Of the 3 Keys for Fasting, which do you think would be most difficult for you,and why?
· Keep God at the Centre
· Let it reveal what controls you
· Lean into your own weakness
8. How can you see the practise of FASTING to MAKE ROOM for Jesus, becoming part of
your journey of ABIDING?
