Expected 25 Dec 25The Fast That Breaks Practical Biblical Fasting for Real-Life Miracles – From Desperation to Deliverance – A Spirit-Empowered Guide for Everyday Believers
From The Chains That Bind Us
Are you trapped in unanswered prayers, unbroken strongholds, or endless spiritual stagnation? In a world of trendy intermittent fasting and weight-loss hacks, true deliverance demands a heart surrendered through biblical fasting. Suzanne Burns—founder of Foundation House Ministries maternity home—reveals how intentional fasting shatters demonic influences, heals trauma, and ignites revivals in ordinary lives. Drawing from her 15-year weekly fast that led to her husband's 2022 salvation, Burns shows fasting transcends hunger—it's obedience over sacrifice (1 Samuel 15:22), yielding supernatural breakthroughs like answered prayers, healings, and outpourings (Matthew 17:21, Isaiah 58:6-9).
To Pay The Price in Heaven's Currency
Rooted in Scripture, this guide debunks myths, contrasts secular methods with Spirit-led intention, and explores full biblical fasts, partial Daniel fasts, modern intermittent with godly purpose, Lent abstentions, and "fasted life" rhythms for ongoing victories. Discover God's fasting triggers autophagy (cellular cleanup), insulin reset, BDNF boost for brain health, and inflammation reduction—renewing your temple (1 Corinthians 6:19-20) while investing "heaven's currency" for high-cost miracles like prodigals returning, addictions breaking, and revivals igniting.
To Unlock Your Breakthrough
Powerful testimonies blend with practical preparation checklists, overcoming pitfalls, warfare prayers, safe plans, and 30-day challenges. Whether seeking guidance, repentance, intercession, or warfare victories, Burns—a trauma-informed teacher—equips everyday Christians (busy parents, professionals, trauma survivors) with wisdom. Embrace a fasted lifestyle where God multiplies sacrifices (Luke 6:38), turning desperation to deliverance.
Ideal for those battling besetting sins, grieving prodigals, or craving Holy Spirit fire.
You want chains to break but will you pay Heaven's price for the prize you desire?

About the author
Suzanne Burns
42 books21 followersI am an author from Central Oregon. After focusing on poetry for several years, which culminated in the publication of two full-length collections, Blight (Archer Books) and The Flesh Procession (Bleak House Books) I am now working on fiction. Future Tense Books released a two-story flipbook this year called Double Header. In June of 2009, Dzanc Books published my short story collection, Misfits and Other Heroes.
Advanced Praise for Misfits and Other Heroes:
"This is no ordinary collection. In Misfits and Other Heroes Burns writes of disproportion, excess, reinvention, and lack as a means of magnifying outward physical irregularities to better reveal the inner irregularities of her characters. Burns is unafraid to explore the dark territory of human heart where love and hate are twins for desire and dread. The many brilliant moments of character, language, and startling observations indicate Burns is a keen observer of the wretched and wonderful human creature. In Burns' capable hands the grotesque becomes achingly familiar: the misfits she writes about are us."
—Gina Oschner, author of People I Wanted to Be
"Suzanne Burns's "heroes" in Misfits and Other Heroes may at first seem just the other side of real, but in their obsessions with food and love and their stories' perfectly odd specificity, they're as real and credible as Americans can be, whether they're a tiny husband carried around in a bird cage by his wife or a woman who prefers to eat glass rather than dumplings or a couple attached to a dollhouse. Who would have thought that Oregon's misfits could be as deluded and cruel as Flannery O'Connor's Southerners and even more bizarre?"
—Tom Whalen, author of Dolls
"Misfits and Other Heroes shows what happens when relationships get downright weird between adorably flawed and familiar characters. Take a good, long look into Burns' funhouse mirror and find yourself anew."
—Trevor Dodge, author of Everyone I Know Lives on Roads
Adventures in the material world, enigmas of food, flesh, the fate of
names, Suzanne Burns's words remark their downfall, know gravity. Not her lightest ploy but feels its weight, not even this now but suffers time. Writing sentences love to death, but if these fictions be believed, Burns will have it no other way.
--R. M. Berry
Misfits [what an understatement!] and Other Heroes [ditto!] brings out the squarest of society's pegs and their tragic, funny, and ultimately moving attempts to find each other and carve out some space among the roundest of society's holes. They are as matched as America's tiniest man and the woman who understands his need to be kept in a birdcage, or as mismatched as sweet-toothed men who long for anorexic women. They are magicians and firefighters, chefs and the other characters able to "contemplate eternity over an empty pie plate." Burns writes that "the world remembers giants" but her stories recall to us the misfit in everyone: a very humane, if not out and out heroic, work of fiction. --Steve Tomasula
