Deep Unto Deep: The Journey of the Embarce

Forerunner Publishing

The grace of fasting is a gift from God that positions us to experience more of God s power and affections. We fast to encounter God more and to change the world! Done in the right spirit, fasting increases our receptivity to God s voice and His Word. Jesus called His disciples to fast in a way that would position their hearts to encounter Him more as the Bridegroom God (Mt. 9:15). This book is designed to equip people to embrace the discipline, grace, and joy of fasting, that they might encounter more of Jesus as their heavenly Bridegroom.

The Rewards of Fasting

Mike Bickle

When we are separated for too long from someone we deeply love, we're left with an ache of mourning. Jesus told us that His friends would mourn when the Bridegroom was taken from them (Matt. 9:15). We are living in the time of delay between His first and second comings, but we do not lament His death, for Jesus is alive. So what does it mean for us to mourn for our Bridegroom? We are strangers in this world, on a pilgrimage until the day we see Him. We endure the groan of hunger and the more painful parts of loving Him. As we fast and pray, we refuse to accept the way things are in this evil age. Amidst the lethargy of our Western, modern, religious, landscape, yearning for our Bridegroom is a witness to others that He is more than a religion. He is a Person, so majestic in beauty and kindness that our hearts are torn by love for Him. If we love Him, will we not miss Him?

Mourning for the Bridegroom

Love withholds nothing. God has given us His all, and His fiery love within empowers us to give our all. Discover the longings God has placed within for the divine romance, and explore how to abandon yourself to wholeheartedness.
