I want to learn how to sacrifice the flesh more and grow spiritually. I never fast before and the Bible says to do this. I want a closer relationship with Jesus.
"When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you."

Fasting helps with self-discipline and will benefit you greatly in your knowing of God.
