Is not this the sort of fast that pleases me – it is the Lord who speaks – to break unjust fetters and undo the thongs of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and break every yoke.
Is.58:6
The list of acceptable fasting that pleases God starts with an emphatic, "Set the oppressed free!"
Anyone who does not follow Jesus is a prisoner to something else. We have a God space within us that we yearn to fill. And so we should, with the one true God.
I can set people free of idols when I introduce them to Jesus. The Alpha Course is one way of doing this. Prayer is another.
Saints Perpetua and Felicity, please pray for me.
