HE BROKE HIS 21-DAY FAST ON DAY 18 AND IT PAINED HIM | Dag Heward-Mills

A brother once told Dag Heward-Mills how he fasted 21 days but broke on day 18 - and it pained him so deeply he started the whole fast over again. Bishop Dag uses this story alongside Jesus's wilderness temptation to make a striking point: suffering in prayer is not a sign of failure, it is an accomplishment. He walks through scriptures showing that Jesus accomplished things through suffering long before the cross, and that Peter witnessed those sufferings firsthand. The takeaway is powerful - the pain you feel in prayer and fasting is not pointless. It is the price of something real being accomplished in the spirit.
