Every Christian has a spiritual bank account, but not every Christian is qualified to write checks.

Dr. Tony Evans explains why you may not have access to your deposits.

They say everyone has baggage in life, but the load you're carrying might be heavier than it needs to be.

Today, Dr. Evans reveals how fasting can help lighten those burdens. Let's join him in Nehemiah

Chapter 1 as he explains.

We've defined fasting as giving up a craving of the body because you have a greater need of the

spirit. That is, there is something in your life that you need resolved that is so deep,

that has locked into you so tightly that you need a breakthrough on it.

A burden is a load.

Something to be carried.

Something crushing you down.

When you try to stand up, it keeps you bent over.

It is a situation or a circumstance that weighs you down.

A burden can keep you in bed when you know you need to get up.

A burden can keep you up when you know you need to go to sleep.
