I attend MFM and we do 70 days fasting every year. We break by five every day of the 70 days, expect fridays and sundays we break by 2 pm. Fasting is also a gud spiritual exercise.

chucky234: That one na fasting malpractice you dey do na,haba why you dey do food expo for fasting na.

nooo, afterall its 6am to 6pm so its not expo anything. I break my night fast and start day's fast. Dt's just d way it is

I can see many nowadays who don't joke with their tummies!
I've done 3 and 7days drive fast (no food, no water)
The experience cannot be described
After the first 2 days of craving for food, the rest was better as the system got adjusted
But what I hated the most, is the persistent pain in my legs and back as the body devour stored adipose tissue,
As for the spiritual aspect,
The kind of horrible dreams you get the first 2-3 days?
After, you might even get an epiphany
Now, I go without food once a week!

I have never fast nor like it, after all the most successful people in this world don't even recognize fasting. There's nothing in fasting except one is being deprive of food.

We break by 5pm every MONDAYS' and Fridays' during seventy days. Dont forget the Power Must Change Hand fast every first Friday preceding saturday in a new month! Coupled with the personal deliverance or hour of fire programme Fasting. End of the year (cross over fasting is knocking at our door). I representing MFM and its lovely to be in the fold.

P.S: Fasting is a spiritual exercise that weakens your flesh and lifts up (energise) your spirit man.... With direct prayers and perfect holiness; all your the benefits will not elude you!

candieangel12: Im currently on day 2 of a 60 day water fast. Its not for religious or spiritual reasons though. Its more for my personal benefit. Wish me luck

If you of all should go on fasting, Ha! make i no talk anything...

Come to think of it... During that fast and you get to come across your ex# 8 (I mean ur beneficial friend)... hmmm... what will happen?

Well.. I have been into monthly 3-days dry fast no food no water... and I really enjoyed it... No one asked me to do it... I just started it on my own and the very first time I started it was hell..

For my very first day of fasting 24hrs no food and water, I asked my mum to cook my breakfast, lunch and dinner and immediately it was 12 mignight, I pounded on all three and I was so relieved...

After that, when I started the 3 days own... The very first day was hectic.. and the next day, I just found myself in the kitchen... Then I thought to myself, If i can survive to this day, surely I can survive the next... so it goes till the third day and had to drink water on the fourth day and mind u, I go to work on these days...

I still intend going on 7 and 12 days dry fast tho... God help me.. ohhh

Hmm... U can say that again but what I think is happening there is that you guys have projected each other's Anima and Animus (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anima_and_animus) into each other and the best way is for you guys to sit down, understand the concept and come to a mutual agreement after understanding what is involved...

Well... would love to meet you if you are in Lagos tho...

ATMC: There was a time i's involved in a 3-day dry fast...d first day came and passed, on d night of d second day, around past midnight, i started calling my sister who was by me, with a faint voice, fortunately, she woke unlike her...i told her to get me food, she adviced dt i take orange, which i did, she then went on to warm d food but i stopped her so she brought d food as it is, thawed from d freezer...i ate voraciously...and few seconds afterwards i threw up everything...i had no physical strength, i had to draw strength from within me...it was an experience dt i wouldn't want to relive...since that experience my fast has never exceeded 3pm

U have kiilll me with laff dis morning o. . Fasting gone wrong....

Fasting is not my hubby. I only try to make an exeption during Ramadan.

promkingzz:
lol u like weed die! Bn seeing ur posts. Well isn't just on weekends u say? Its okay if u ask me

When did I tell you that I smoke weed on weekends?

Fasting helps you push your mind and body to places you've never imagined. Stretching your mind beyond its limitations has nothing to do with wealth or who is rich or poor.

EEEyaa. Dust up and pick up again. But do it with wisdom and more knowledge. In Ecclesiastes 10:17 'Blessed are you o land, when your king is son of noble, and your sons eat at the proper time for strength and not for drunkeness'. SO in long fast, the proper time is when your physical strength has started failing you. It will be of no use fasting without even enough strength to pray. That's one. Then two, and more importantly,VORACIOUS eating, as u put it, immediately after a long fast is very unhealthy. Medical experts will explain better, but I do know that the bowels respond better when u break gradually: water, then fruits and fluid meal like pap or custard before real solid.

This came at d right time thanks to naira land.

The most challenging fast I've done was about 3years ago. I went on "liquid only" for 8 days. It wasn't easy considering that I was going to work and having to be in church after work to pray for hours. It was a spiritual renewal/rejuvenation time for me, but my body sef heard "whiiiin", cuz by the 7th day my legs were literally shaking at work. Anyway, I'll relive that experience sometime soon.

On a funny note, a friend eagerly kicked off a "liquid only" fast, and after a few days of facing the reality of the exercise, his liquid metamorphosed into semi-liquid as he started taking pap. Lol.

omiobo: I used fast every monday in every week. It's lovely. Now i want to know if i can take water or fruits when on 3 days dry fasting.

There is no general rule on the issue of fasting. A lot depend on your motive, body and your determination. But the most recommended is fast without water and food for first day and drink only water for strength on subsequent days. With this you can have enough energy to be praying while fasting for the next three days or more.If you take fruits, it becomes dieting and not fasting.

I miraculously got a ptdf scholarship to do my Master's abroad in 2009 towards the end of a 60 day fast, + other breakthroughs.

Glory be to God.

crackhouse: instead of 6-12, u better do 6-1pm, that's the normal one. 6-12 is for the amateur. Unless u are not serious about what u are praying for.

Your fasting is between you and God. You go as far as you decide to or as far as you can go. Water fast, food fast, specific food fast, TV fast, s:e_x fast; It's between you and God! Nobody 'outsider' determines the length of your fasting time.

When did I tell you that I smoke weed on weekends?

So it is because of weed smoking that you haven't given me my food since yesterday night abi?

Don't worry. Mama Kudirat's fine daughter brought food for me yesterday.
Something may or may not have happened afterwards. But that's besides the point.

What I need now is for you to give me a hot oil massage. Gat some wicked knots.

...
I need to be fully sated before commencing fasting tomorrow. [size=4pt](make one yeye person no hide my post) [/size]

ATMC: On first of november a fast was declared in my house by me...i encouraged everybody on d last day of oct to fast d next day being d first day of nov which was d penultimate month of d year so they all agreed. At about 5am d said day, i woke up and started taking tea, and my sis who was with me in d room, called my name and said what are you doing, i told her dt i's eating, she said are we not fasting again, i said i am but i got to eat cos i didn't eat on dt 31st of oct, she got up and joined me...we ate. And dt carried me through till 3pm. I THINK IT'S OK TO EAT BEFORE 6AM, IF U ARE FASTING 6 TO 6. henceforth dt's my way

Lmaooooooo! Ur ojoro too much!

I have never fasted long, and barely fast

When dad and us where much younger, dad always said that Jesus fasted for us, and so we didnt need to fast
My little mind was pleased with dad's rationale and tucked it away in a folder

Now my dad does fast
but its tough for me to shake off my dads lazy wisdom

I always question the rationale for fasting
and many don't seem to hold water

The only one that holds for me now, is that fasting is for discipline sake

Gracious10:

Lmaooooooo! Ur ojoro too much!

i aint ojoroing at all, its common sense, u break d all through d night fast when u wake to enable you continue d day's...morning food, isn't it breakfast? U see am

Fasting gives spiritual strenght, it's like telling GOD that you are not sustained by any Earthly food...but by the HOLY SPIRIT....Remember, Man shall not live by bread alone!
