Fasting and Spiritual Warfare: Fighting Darkness with God’s Strength | Matthew 9 & 17
Description
Fasting isn’t just self-denial—it’s spiritual warfare.
In this week’s message, Pastor Nathan unpacks Matthew 9:14 –17 and Matthew 17:14 –21 to show how fasting isn’t simply for self-improvement, but an active way believers resist the powers of darkness through Christ’s strength.

✅ Why fasting is an essential weapon in the life of a disciple
✅ How Christ and the Apostles modeled fasting in times of need and preparation
✅ Why prayer and fasting together rely fully on God’s provision and power
✅ How your personal and corporate fasting impacts the world around you
