D: Fasting redefined:

So, fasting is a spiritual discipline because if we can cut out our wrong priorities and distractions, even around necessities like food (but not just food)

then we are more likely to be able to be undistracted in hearing His prompting and guidance, and in sensing His presence and hearing His voice,

and so we will pray in greater faith, in response accurately to His voice or promises,

rather than not knowing how/what to pray, and praying for things that seem good, but aren't based on His voice.

Fasting is a God ordained method of removing or distancing ourselves from normal distractions, temptations or interruptions, to focus in on Him, to reduce the likelihood of anything preventing us from interacting with Him.
