Introduction
Search your heart in deciding what type of fast you want to do. If you have never fasted, maybe start off with a partial fast and progress to a fruit, and vegetable option for the last couple of days. Remember, the most important consideration in fasting is your motive. Why are you fasting?

What should I do while fasting?
Protect your gates
Your eyes, ears, hands, nose, and mouth are “gates” or entry ways into your soul.
Fasting disciplines your body to align with God's purpose and plans, rather than allowing your desires to dictate His plans. Jesus practiced fasting as a consistent spiritual discipline. Abstaining from physical intimacy, social media, food, television, certain discussions, etc. can enhance your connection with the Father.
