Please can you tell me the advantages of fasting over day to day prayer. I ask because in my life I have fasted several times. BUT HALF THE TIME the things that I fast for never materialise. I have had prayers answered and I thought blessings would pour when I fast. Is there a special way of fasting that I am missing. I have done whole fasting where I spent the whole day without eating anything and eating after 3pm, partial fasting and so on but I do not seem to get the response I expect from God. Please someone please help.

I've done many fasts and still do. When you PRAY when you fast, things get done in the spirit realm. But if you just abstain from food and don't pray, you're just starving yourself.

Many scriptures in the Bible state to fast and pray. Many years ago when people fasted that didn't eat or drink anything. But now the trend seems to be to drink but not eat. The Copeland's state that fasting can pertain to other things besides food. Kenneth Copeland gave the example that one day he felt that God didn't want him to read the newspaper. He stopped and has never resumed that activity.
