Are you wondering what are the benefits of doing the Daniel fast? Well today I'm going to share with you these 9 amazing spiritual benefits of fasting, specifically the Daniel fast. Here are the 9 gifts that God gives you as you do the fast and complete it 1. Divine Guidance By acknowledging that God is your Lord and savior, you win the battle against the strongholds and enemies. Fasting helps you strengthen your mind and spirit, so you can listen to God's message and receive His guidance and answers to your problems. 2. Weaken the adversary As long as Jesus remains as your savior, no one can ever take you away from Him. He holds you tight and the adversaries have no power over you. Fasting is a period of renewal and refreshing your spirit, so you can determine God's plan for you and to submit fully to His will. 3. Cope with difficulties This is a tough world to live in – there will always be hard days, months, years, and that's inevitable. But through fasting, you will be able to cope with all these difficulties. Whether it is a marriage issue, a horrific medical illness, home loss, job loss, and so on, you can cope with these things head on with God's help. 4. To free yourself from bondage With God, nothing is impossible. You can free yourself from things that bond you to something including addictions to food, alcohol, and so on. 5. To get rid of depression While it may sound more like a physical reward, it is also a spiritual gift of the Daniel fast. As your gut heals from the whole foods you eat, your mind and body will also improve. You will be able to praise God better when you are free of depression. 6. To remove evil thoughts If you are having negative thoughts, you need God's Divine assistance to remove these. Fasting can help you overcome these unnecessary thoughts, worries, and anxieties. 7. To achieve internal happiness As you clean up your diet, your mind will become sharper and your gut will be healthier. The internal changes also impact your external body, and this is what you can get through the Daniel fast. 8. To fight temptation There are temptations all around you. But you must be strong in your faith to fight and resist these as they will destroy your life and relationships. Fasting helps you achieve spiritual discipline https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBwep… 9.

To be happier internally. I've noticed in my own personal life when, when I've done fasting and when I have followed the Daniel fast eating, that my gut is healthier, my mind is sharper, and I don't have as many of those thoughts coming in and I am just internally happier, therefore externally happier. And that's what the Daniel fast is all about. 8. To resist temptation. The Daniel fast can keep you strong and resist temptations ven from items such as pornography and other addictions that can destroy our life and our marriage. This is huge, as we live in a society that doesn't believe in any restrictions and it's just causing chaos https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBwep… 9. To invite God's power to flow through you more mightily. And to that I say yes Lord Jesus. Amen means I agree with what you're teaching me, Lord, I agree with what you're doing in my life. I may not always understand it, but I do agree with it. So there you have the spiritual benefits of Daniel Fast.
