Prayer and Fasting: How God Meets You When You Seek Him First | Alita Reynolds | Women of Faith

Hey sweet friends! 

Starting the year with prayer and fasting is one of the most powerful ways to realign your heart with God, hear His voice more clearly, and invite spiritual breakthrough. In this episode, I walk you through what fasting really is, how to do it biblically, and why it can transform your relationship with Jesus. Hi friends, welcome back to The Alita Reynolds Show. I am so thankful we get to begin this year together.

I didn’t grow up fasting, and maybe you didn’t either, but once I discovered that Scripture teaches “when you fast,” it changed so much for me. In this episode, I share my journey with fasting and how it has helped me surrender my will, quiet distractions, and depend more fully on the Lord.

Here are some of the key points we walk through together:

• What prayer and fasting truly mean and why they belong together

• Why the Bible emphasizes fasting and how God uses it to bring clarity

• How fasting helps shift us from flesh-led to Spirit-led living

• What a 21 day corporate fast looks like and how to personalize it

• Different fasting approaches, from food-related fasts to removing distractions

• Why grace, intention, and humility matter more than perfection

• Biblical examples of fasting that show God’s faithfulness in seasons of seeking Him

• Practical ways to prepare mentally, spiritually, and physically

• How journaling helps capture breakthroughs and spiritual insight

• Why community and Bible study make the journey stronger and richer

Whether this is your very first fast or you’ve done many before, I believe this episode will encourage you and give you practical steps to begin. And if you want deeper support and fellowship, I invite you to join our Women of Faith Bible Study as we walk through this season together. Let’s start the year seeking God first and trusting Him in every area of our lives.

I’m wildly cheering you!
