What did Jesus do to get the maximum out of his
ministry? He prepared by first going into the wilderness to fast for forty
days.
Jesus said in Matthew 6:16: “When you
fast...” not “If you fast...” The first Christians fasted (Acts
13:2-3; 14:23). It was nothing new. Moses and
Elijah had done the same. Fasting and putting on sackcloth saved the city of
Nineveh from destruction. King David said, "I humble myself through
fasting” (Psalm 35:13).

sleep. They walk amid evil on angels' wings with unwavering confidence in the power of God.
