About "Three Things that a Fast Does' 
Fasting is a Sacrament of Death.  

Fasting is not a hunger strike for God. But it is a hunger strike against everything in you that’s opposed to your success.

Fasting is not a sacrifice to earn Gods miracles. But lays hold of the miracle power of God.
Fasting is a death to the flesh, so that the Zoe in your spirit can operate. 

Mathew 26:41
41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

The crux of the matter is, to live an victorious life we must “eat from the tree of life”, meaning we need to impart divine life into our weak flesh.

We understand that a miracle happens when we eat from the Table of our Lord, in Holy Communion. Drinking His blood and Eating his flesh. 

But while communion gives us life, fasting enforces death to our carnal man. 

Three Things Fasting Does (among others)
1. Fasting roots out your unbelief 
2. Fasting causes you to confront unanswered prayers
3. Fasting release the Zoe life of God to strengthen your flesh. By depriving your body of life that’s in food and exchanging that source for the supply of divine life.
