Chris Pratt, the popular actor, used the Daniel Fast as his method of fasting for the New Year Fast. He posted that He was on the Daniel Fast and uninformed folks immediately interpreted it to a DIET! Ouch! The Daniel Fast is NOT a diet. It’s a biblical fast. It’s a solemn and sacred experience. It’s a spiritual fast.
With that said, the article in Time Magazine does offer some good information that you might want to review. Plus, I’m thankful that they included a link to this site.

By the way, Chris Pratt is a Christian and he was using the Daniel Fast for spiritual reasons. He recognized he would also have some health benefits from this very healthy way of eating during the fast.
You can also watch the video below where I provide an overview of the Daniel Fast.

Hi,
I started a fast the day after Thanksgiving, it was not the Daniel fast. It was no food until sunset and that was vegetarian. It was a 14 day fast and on day 10, I sensed the Lord telling me to live the Daniel fast as I was watching a video on fasting from AoC.network.
I started researching about how to do that and I found The Daniel Cure book, which I am still reading and learning. My original goal was to draw near to The Lord and pray for our country. I finished my 14-day fast and went into a 10-day fast of the Daniel Fast. Now I am living the Daniel Cure.
I have been praying for years that God help me get healthy so I have the energy to serve Him. I am a diabetic, have been for 16 years, I had uncontrollable blood pressure in 2018, which caused me to have a TIA. I actually praise the Lord for that TIA, because they found a large pituitary tumor that would have caused me to go blind.
Since November I have lost 21 lbs, I had lost 10lbs prior to that, but it had taken 5 months to lose that weight. My insulin dosage has dropped from 25 units to 15 units, I was on 3 different blood pressure medications, I have been able to get off 1 of them totally and recently been able to cut one of the two left in half. I was able to start back to work after a year of being off due to the fatigue from the tumor that was removed in June as well as one of the blood pressure medications I was on. I am able to keep up with my grandchildren now, getting on the floor to play with them and not having any problems getting back up.
I am still considered to be obese, but I know that will change soon 1 more lb. I am spending more time with The Lord, He is becoming my first love again. My husband has noticed the changes in me, not just weight, but He says I have become more self-disciplined. That is huge because that is one of the fruits of the Spirit I had not yet tapped into. (For a lack of a better word) my behaviors have changed drastically, not only with food but in all areas of my life.
I never thought I was a stress eater, now I know I definitely am, God is working on giving things over to Him instead of food being my idol. My goal is to get off all the medication that I can, diabetes, and blood pressure meds. There are some I will have to be on the rest of my life unless God chooses to heal the pituitary gland so that it will function correctly.
Thank you for your book and for giving me a chance to share. I pray it will encourage others to start on this journey of drawing nearer to Jesus.
Dearest Lily,
Thank you so much for your powerful testimony and for your appreciation for The Daniel Cure book, which I co-authored with Dr. Richard Bloomer. As you know, it’s filled with God’s truth and all confirmed by the medical research conducted by Dr. Bloomer.
I am thrilled for you, Lily. Our God is so very good. I can hear the joy in your words. Plus, I see that you are well on your way to the health, success, and growing faith that your Father wants for you. You are His treasure. He loves you more than you can imagine. And He’s always there for you.
Thank you for taking the time to share your story with us. My heart is filled with joy and I praise God for how He’s working in your and others as we point our focus to Him and His ways.
Be blessed, beautiful woman of God!
