HOW CAN I FAST?
There are three different types of fasts recorded in the Bible:
* A total or complete fast, where neither food nor water is consumed.
In this type of fast, a complete fast, natural hunger usually leaves by the third or the fourth day and returns in about twenty one to forty days or longer. There are two different instances recorded when Moses fasted for forty days and forty nights, where he neither ate nor drank water. (Exodus 34:28; Deuteronomy 9:18-2. The King of Nineveh proclaimed a fast throughout Nineveh, whether neither man nor beast could eat or drink. (Jonah 3:8-9).
*A fast where only water is consumed.
Before Jesus started His Ministry, He fasted for forty days and forty nights. During that time, He ate nothing. (Luke 4:2) - Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days He did eat nothing: and when they were ended, He afterward hungered.
Following this time of fasting, angels came and ministered to Him. (Matthew 4:11).
* A partial fast, where an individual abstains from eating specific foods.
Daniel fasted twenty one days. During that time he did not eat meat or drink any wine. (Daniel 10:2-3).
2 In those days I Daniel was mourning three full weeks.
3 I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine in my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, till three whole weeks were fulfilled.
There were many times when the prophets and leaders of nations called for a fast throughout the land. King Jehoshaphat proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah. (II Chronicles 20:1-29); the King of Nineveh proclaimed a public fast (Jonah 3:8-9); the prophet Ezra proclaimed a fast throughout Israel. (Ezra 8:21). God spoke through the prophet Joel, calling a fast throughout Israel. (Joel 1:13-14).
COMMENT PUIS-JE JEÛNER ?
Il existe trois types différents de jeûne dans la Bible:
* Un jeûne total ou complet, où ni la nourriture ni l'eau n'est consommée.
Dans ce type de jeûne, une faim complète et rapide, la faim naturelle part habituellement vers le troisième ou le quatrième jour et revient dans environ vingt à quarante jours ou plus. Il y a deux cas différents enregistrés lorsque Moïse jeûna pendant quarante jours et quarante nuits, où il ne mangeait ni ne buvait d'eau. (Exode 34:28, Deutéronome 9: 18-2. Le roi de Ninive a proclamé un jeûne à travers Ninive, que ni l'homme ni la bête ne puissent manger ni boire. (Jonas 3: 8-9).
* Un jeûne où seule de l'eau est consommée.
Avant de commencer son ministère, Jésus jeûna pendant quarante jours et quarante nuits. Pendant ce temps, Il n'a rien mangé. (Luc 4: 2) - Être quarante jours tentés par le diable. Et en ce temps-là, il ne mangeait rien; et quand ils furent terminés, Il a faim après.
Après ce temps de jeûne, des anges vinrent le servir. (Matthieu 4:11).
* Un jeûne partiel, où un individu s'abstient de manger des aliments spécifiques.
Daniel jeûnait vingt et un jours. Pendant ce temps, il ne mangeait pas de viande ni ne buvait de vin. (Daniel 10: 2-3).
«À cette époque, moi, Daniel, je reste dans le deuil pendant trois semaines.
Pendant tout ce temps, je ne mange aucune nourriture délicieuse. Je ne prends ni viande, ni vin, et je ne peigne pas mes cheveux.»
Il y avait de nombreuses fois où les prophètes et les chefs des nations appelèrent à un jeûne dans tout le pays.
Le roi Josaphat proclama un jeûne dans tout Juda. (II Chroniques 20: 1-29);
Le roi de Ninive a proclamé un jeûne public (Jonas 3: 8-9);
Le prophète Ezra a proclamé un jeûne dans tout Israël. (Esdras 8:21).
Dieu parla par le prophète Joël, appelant un jeûne dans tout Israël. (Joël 1: 13-14)
