My 40 Day Fast - Day 3 MHM Ep. 3

This video chronicles my journey on a 40 day fast. Jesus fasted for 40 days as did Ezra and Moses, so there must have been a reason for it. Jesus did not start His ministry until after He fasted 40 days in the wilderness.

We now know there are a lot of physical benefits to fasting, and today and for the next 37 days I am going to find out what those benefits are in my own body, mind and spirit. The body goes into autophagy after about 3 days, a condition during which the body starts looking for whatever it can consume. Besides consuming excess stored fat, it also breaks down weak or old cells to recycle into new cells.

It is not just the physical or carnal benefits we get from fasting. We also strengthen the spiritual connection to our creator, Father God, through His Holy Spirit. One video I watched said that when Christians do this, at one point they recognize what happens and say, "That's Holy Spirit." This is the reason for my quest. Join me on this journey to see where it will take us.
