當我們渴望更深經歷神的同在，有一條歷久不衰、充滿能力的途徑，那就是——禁食禱告。 這不只是現代人的屬靈操練，更是從初代教會就被實踐的生命之道。使徒們在關鍵時刻禁食尋求神，教會在面對差派與轉化時刻，也都以禁食禱告為起點。因為禁食能讓我們親近神、聽見神的聲音、調整我們屬靈的生命。 禁食不是為了減肥，也不只是斷食，更不是宗教的規條。它是一種將身心對焦於神的操練，是我們刻意地放下肉體的聲音，對齊神的心意。當我們選擇禁食禱告，就是在對神說：「我渴望祢的同在，勝過一切。」 這樣的操練會重新調整我們的屬靈胃口，使我們的渴望變得健康且對準神。禁食禱告幫助我們謙卑自己，經歷祂的恩典與憐憫，也讓我們更敏銳於祂的帶領。 讓我們學習透過禁食禱告親近神、承接祂的同在與心意。 參考經文：歷代志下7章14節 - When we long to experience God’s presence more deeply, there is a timeless and powerful pathway—that is, fasting and prayer. This is not just a spiritual discipline for modern believers, but a way of life practiced since the early church. The apostles fasted and sought God at critical moments, and the church began every important sending and season of transformation with fasting and prayer. Why? Because fasting draws us near to God, helps us hear His voice, and realigns our spiritual life. Fasting is not about losing weight, skipping meals, or following a religious rule. It is a discipline that helps us refocus our body, soul, and spirit on God. It is a deliberate act of quieting the voice of the flesh in order to align with God's heart. When we choose to fast and pray, we are saying to God: “I desire Your presence more than anything else.” This kind of discipline resets our spiritual appetite, transforming our desires to become healthy and centered on God. Fasting and prayer help us humble ourselves, experience His grace and mercy, and become more sensitive to His leading. Let us learn to draw near to God and carry His presence and His heart through fasting and prayer.
