Isaiah 58:6-7 ESV
“Is not this the fast that I choose:
to loose the bonds of wickedness,
to undo the straps of the yoke,
to let the oppressed go free,
and to break every yoke?
Is it not to share your bread with the hungry
and bring the homeless poor into your house;
when you see the naked, to cover him,
and not to hide yourself from your own flesh?
The true fast of the Lord is to forgo the food of the world for the bread of heaven and the living waters that flow from above. To live in the fullness of the Spirit imparts a transformation of your mind. This is learning obedience to the Lord. Transform the mind and the body will follow. This will bring us to our destination.
Obedience is not a onetime event, but walking with God. The transformation of the body will be a onetime event that will begin with the sounding of the trumpet of the Lord.
