God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
Types of [fasting]…limited to the Bible: 1. Normal fast – Abstain from all food but not water (Mat. 4:2). 2. Absolute fast – Abstain from all food and drink (Ez. 10:6; Est. 4:16; Ac. 9:9). 3. Supernatural fast – [Absolute fast beyond physical abilities] (Dt. 9:9). 4. Partial fast – Restriction of diet rather than a total abstinence from all food (Dan. 10:3).
To love this God means, among many other things, that we will be hungry to get to know Him better; conversely, in learning His words and ways, His attributes and His glory, what He loves and what He hates, we will find that our understanding of what it means to love God, what it means to love enemies, what it means to love brothers and sisters in Christ, will all be progressively modified and enriched. Precisely because, as created, dependent, and redeemed creatures, we are called to love our Creator, our Sovereign, our Redeemer with heart and soul and strength and mind, we will be firmly led to think robustly about what He is like, how He views evil, what rights and responsibilities He gives to the state in a fallen world, His role both in making peace and in judgment, and, above all, His commitment to His own glory as God.
