AFM pastor tells congregants to take one-year-long fasting
By Caleb Chikwawawa
AFM pastor, Bullzoder Muganhu has introduced a fasting period of 365 days. He announced this last week after he had himself completed 25 days of fasting to end the year 2023.
Addressing followers, Pastor Muganhu cited Old Testament prophets who fasted to motivate his brethren to fast, he wrote;
“Exodus 34:28 and Deuteronomy 9:9, 9:18. Moses neither nor drank water.
“In Kings 19:8, Elizabeth ate and drank then was sustained his 40 days of fasting. In Mathew 4:2-4, Jesus fasted food for 40 days,” wrote pastor Muganhu.
The AFM Church and most Christian denominations are known for observing the first 10 days of January of fasting.
Fasting is treated as an essential component of prayer and strengthens believers for spiritual battles through weakening the body and strengthening the spirit.
