Author Sheldon Juell, Ph.D. has written a two-volume exhaustive study on the spiritual discipline of fasting as seen throughout the entire canon of Scripture. The context and key words of each fast are examined systematically and exegetically to reveal the deeper meaning and relevancy of each fast to the Christian today. I believe that more than ever, in the day in which we live, we need to become aware of the spiritual discipline of fasting combined with prayer to bring healing, deliverance, fresh vision, and focus to our lives as Christians and to churches. There seems to be many Christians today who struggle with various issues—whether, physical, emotional, mental, spiritual, and financial—who are searching for the spiritual power to truly walk in the freedom that Jesus Christ has given them and live healthy and whole in every area of their life. Volume 1 investigates Scripture, and Jewish and Christian history to find the roots of the discipline, and how it can be used biblically and practically in a person’s life. Many experience breakthrough and freedom as they seek the Lord. However, many pray for what seems to be endless hours and experience some level of breakthrough, but may not sense a complete breaking of the chains of bondage that has been holding them captive. A great example of the need for fasting and prayer can be seen as the Messiah heals a boy possessed by an impure spirit (Mk. 9:14-29). This led me to ask the Lord, what else is there? How can I experience a complete breaking of these chains of bondage? This 2 Volume set raises the awareness of the need for fasting. My prayer is that those who read and put into practice the spiritual discipline of fasting will experience freedom from the bondage that has been holding them captive. The reader will discover the keys to walking in freedom and living the life that Jesus Christ offers us by defeating Satan through His life, death, and resurrection.
Volume 2 called Personal Reflections is the companion to Volume 1. Therefore, you will need both Volumes 1 and 2 to complete this biblical theology of fasting and practice of fasting. Volume 2 is a workbook that can help readers unlock spiritual bondage and experience breakthrough in every area of their lives. The reader will discover the keys to walking in freedom and living the life that Jesus Christ offers us by defeating Satan through His life, death, and resurrection. Volume 2 contains a detailed Table of Contents so that the participant can find a particular fast quickly. At the end of each fast, the reader will be asked to ponder personal life situations, respond to relevant questions, and then apply them to their personal life, family, church, and/or ministry. They will be asked to write a prayer that is addressed to the Lord that reflects their new commitment and dedication to Him. Each fast also includes a section called Journaling, which can be used for spiritual growth, personal insights, and also writing down insights from others who are involved with you in fasting. This can include your family, home group, church, or a corporate fast.
