At some point in your Christian walk you may have fasted from food, television, or other things in order to refocus and rekindle your relationship with Christ.

The Forty-Day Word Fast focuses on several biblically sound mechanisms to help you change your words and your life. Not only will your vocabulary change, your heart also will be transformed in just forty days. “For out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks” (Matt. 12:34 nkjv). With this guaranteed effective form of fasting you will be challenged to eradicate from your speech all words of...

Top Highlights

“As powerful as negative words are, the fasting of such words has a reciprocal impact that is mightier. The great power negative words have over positive words begins to work in reverse. Every time we hold our tongue and don’t make those negative comments, others consider us wise for our silence. Every time we put a halt to that critical thought we were about to utter, we bring our minds and body under control. Every time we don’t speak that negative word, we distance ourselves from our past failures. Every time we don’t complain, we reinforce gratefulness in our lives. Every time we don’t pass gossip on to others, we purify our lives so other people have less to gossip to others about us.” (source)
