It was used as a means of focusing on the things of the sipirit by denying the flesh in order to have a closer more intimate relationship with God, and was done by individuals as well as whole nations( 2 Samuel 12: 22, Judges 20: 26,and Joel 1:14) gives us a good insight into fasting. To fast was and is a way of one expressing Grief(1 Samuel 31:13), repentance(1 Samuel 7:6), humility ( Psalm 69 :10) and discipline( 2 Samuel 12: 16-23 )

Why does God appreciate prayers in secret more than public prayers? It is a time of spiritual communication between Father and Child (Creator and created). This time of intimacy between Our Heavenly Father and us should always be a personal time together. A time of stillness and prayer to Our Father in Heaven, through His only begotten Son, Christ Jesus. Its not a show piece to be displayed in public but rather a very private personal matter between God and Child.

Why is giving in secret more to be commended that giving where people can see it? Our charitable deeds, should be seen only by Our Provider(God). For the Glory belongs to Him and not us. Without Gods Providence, we would have nought, it is only through His Grace that we receive His Blessings, and the Glory of these Blessings, rightfully belongs to Him.
