The objective of this fast is to restrict usually enjoyed foods as an act of consecration and worship to God. The person who chooses to follow a Daniel Fast will demonstrate a physical commitment for pursuing a closer relationship with god. On an occasion, Daniel who was very much concerned for his people sought wisdom of Lord during the time of prayer and fasting. Daniel 10:2-3 says, "At that time I, Daniel, mourned for three weeks. I ate no choice food; no meat or wine touched my lips." Meaning of the term "choice food" is unclear; however, most interpretations conclude he did not eat sweets or bread and he ate only simple and plain food." The idea behind this fast is to imitate Daniel's spiritual hunger instead of duplicating his menu. His passion for the Lord made him to seek spiritual food instead of physical food- it should be the desire for any person who follows the Daniel Fast. The focus of this fast is not on the food. Instead, it is all about setting our eyes on the Lord and drawing near to Him. The food guidelines given help we set boundaries for our fast. They are not meant to force's into legalism.
