From the Introduction:

It is our contention that God has bestowed upon us the ability, the opportunity, the privilege and the duty of fasting. That this is an obligation for which we are responsible, and for which some day we must give an account. That when God's people sincerely fast, it enables God to do what otherwise He cannot do. That it places something in His hands that enables Him to release power that otherwise He cannot release.

That when we sincerely fast it enables God to do for us, personally, something that He otherwise cannot do. That it enables God to do for the local church of which we are members, what otherwise He cannot do. That it enables God to do for the community of which we are a part, what otherwise He cannot do. That when we fast it enables God to do lot the nation, and for the age, what otherwise He cannot do. That consequently WE OWE IT TO GOD TO FAST, and to do it sincerely, faithfully and regularly. That God's people are responsible for all the divine power that He is able to release because we fast. That for this responsibility and its dynamic possibilities we must some day give an account personally to Jesus our Lord.


About the author: 

Dr. Joseph Grant Morrison (1871-1939) was converted and called to be a preacher at a young age. He was known as the "Soldier of the Cross." His heart was for missions, and he took part in them and also encouraged people to do the same as the General Superintendent of the Nazarene Church. Though he surely never regretted it, missions is what finally ended his life. He caught dysentery during his travels in South America.

He left a grand spiritual heritage, and was the author of many books, including 'Interesting Incidents,' 'Our Lost Estate,' 'Achieving Faith,' 'The Christian Sabbath,' 'A Dialog on Eternal Security,' 'The Stewardship of Prayer,' and 'The Stewardship of Fasting.
