Fasting – Worship While You Fast
When we think of faith, we think of Abraham. When we think of the Law, we think of Moses. When we think of miracles, we think of Elijah and Elisha. But when we think of praise and worship, we think of David … a man after God’s own heart. Jesus quoted more from David, from Book of Psalms, than any other Old Testament writer. If you want to get God’s attention—worship while you fast.
Connection Questions

- What topic did Jesus choose to discuss with the Samaritan woman at the well? John 4:21-24
- After Jehoshaphat called a fast in Judah and they sought the Lord, how did they enter into their battle? 2 Chronicles 20:21

Conclusion
Nothing is authorized to stop your worship! Nothing can separate you. No trial, no burden, no x-ray, no bill, no setback. If you’ll worship, you can get in God’s presence.
