Do what feels right for you and what you wish to do for God. Do NOT listen to those Pharisees who will impose THEIR rules onto you, otherwise we will end up arguing about how many angels can fit onto the head of a pin or some other rubbish like that. Christianity is about our relationship with God not about following some mindless rules interpreted by some man. 2 Likes |

Heaven on Earth greetings to everybody. With my PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, drinking water on empty stomach increases your level of hunger. Because water aids digestion, so the little food substance in your stomach will digest and you get hungry shortly after drinking water. |

Wcole: sorry that is not tru, people need water and when the body didnot have enought water the blood gets thick, and that can give you health problems. People can survive with only water, for more than 40 days but when you have only bread and no water you cannot survive 40 days. 2 Likes |

No biblical reference to support this but I don't think water is right when its a fast that you will break the same day. Yes, I have fasted and drank water before, you can't go on fasting for several days and night without water. The whole point of fasting is depriving yourself of basic desires...and I think water is one of them. If you are at liberty to take water when thirsty, you might as well add sugar On the timing, 12a.m or 6a.m? I tell myself years back that fasting starts when I wake up, which was very convenient as am kinda nocturnal. And all kind of things we tell ourselves just to make the burden lighter. Now its strictly 12am till 6pm...or 3pm with good reasons and no water. Whatever you decide to do let your conscience judge you and the Spirit guide you. 1 Like |

The essence of "Fasting and Praying" is to get oneself to be in "Spiritual" synch with "Divinity." Fasting without Praying, Listening to and Studying God's Word is hunger strike. Fasting does not entails the denial of oneself from food only but also means denial from certain activitiz and chats that will corrupt the process. Now drinking water; which does not contain any calorie, during a "Fast" does not corrupt the process or aim. One should only take water to quench taste and reduce the effect of one's digestive juice; HCL, in the stomach whose aim is to digest food materials. When there's no food material to digest in the stomach, the juice begins to digest the walls of the stomach thereby resulting to "ulcer." Water should be taken during "Fast" but not in excess to quench "hunger." 2 Likes |

wilderness... does it ring... though might not necessarily be a desert... but according to the holy book... When Moses took the Israelites into the wilderness, they were thirsty and hungry. Moses, in faith, prayed for God to sustain them, also the case of Jesus.. he was led by the spirit into a wilderness.. In both wilderness stories, the wilderness has many functions. It serves as a place of barrenness and hunger, source of nourishment from God, a location for God’s testing and revelation, and a context for the transformation for God’s people. now fasting with water.. doesnt identify you with that wilderness context (dry).. cox its significance is the absence of food or water.. Luke 5:33. And they said unto him, Why do the disciples of John fast often, and make prayers, and likewise the disciples of the Pharisees; but thine eat and drink?. notice that word drink.. your question is settled... well whatever you do...
