Is Not This the Fast?

Israel files a complaint that fasting isn’t working, the Lord answers, and the Sabbath turns out to be a delight, not a list

💡 The big idea

Fasting and the Sabbath aren’t rules for getting God’s attention; they’re ways to draw close to Him and do His work of freeing, feeding and lifting people.

I can fast and keep the Sabbath to draw closer to the Lord and help lift someone else’s burden, not just to check a box.

Study it yourself firstRead Isaiah 58–66 in Gospel LibraryCome, Follow Me manualOpen this week (Isaiah 58–66)
Know the chapters

Isaiah 58 opens with a complaint. The people are doing everything right on the outside: they seek the Lord daily and fast faithfully. Then they ask, in effect, “We fasted, so why aren’t You noticing?” (v. 3). The Lord’s answer is blunt: on the day of your fast you chase your own interests, push your workers harder and pick fights (vv. 3–4). A fast is not about looking humble (v. 5). The fast He chooses loosens the bands of wickedness, lifts heavy burdens, frees the oppressed, feeds the hungry, houses the poor and clothes the naked (vv. 6–7).

Then come some of the best promises in scripture: your light will break forth like the morning, your health will spring up, you will call and the Lord will answer, “Here I am” (vv. 8–9), and He will make you “like a watered garden” (v. 11). Verses 13–14 turn to the Sabbath: stop “doing thy pleasure on my holy day” and “call the sabbath a delight,” and you will delight yourself in the Lord. The Church’s practice of fasting for two meals on fast Sunday and giving a generous fast offering to care for people in need grows straight out of this chapter.

Isaiah 61:1–3 describes the Anointed One who comes to bind up the brokenhearted, free captives and give “beauty for ashes.” In the synagogue at Nazareth, Jesus stood, read this passage and said, “This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears” (Luke 4:16–21). When we fast to lift burdens, we join Him in exactly the work He said He came to do.

Fourteen- to sixteen-year-olds often experience fasting as “being hungry” and the Sabbath as “the day I can’t do stuff.” Don’t fight that with guilt. Isaiah’s own people felt the same way! For the Strength of Youth (“Love God, love your neighbor”) says that keeping the Sabbath holy shows God we’re willing to dedicate a day to Him, and that fasting and giving offerings show Him that His work matters more to us than material things. Let the youth wrestle honestly with real Sabbath dilemmas; your goal is a better question (“What does this choice say to God?”), not a rulebook.

Only have 5 minutes?

Read Isaiah 58:3–14 and Luke 4:16–21. Open with the honest hunger check, run the Complaint Department skit from Teach Mode (you read the Lord’s lines and Jesus’s words), play Delight or Duty using the walls, let a youth run the Unlock the Bands object lesson, and hold Sabbath Court with the Name Spinner. Close with a quiet testimony of a fast that changed something for you. Brought nothing? Tap “I brought nothing”: every step has a no-supplies version.

What to bring4 items

Tick what you have. Forgot something? Every step that needs a supply has a no-supplies version in the plan below.

Before class

  1. Tape the DELIGHT and DUTY signs on opposite walls before class.
  2. Text a youth on Saturday: “Will you lead a 3-minute part of class with a piece of yarn? Read Isaiah 58:6–7 and be ready to ask the class what ‘bands’ and ‘yokes’ people our age get stuck in.” Text a strong reader: “Will you read the Complainers’ lines from Isaiah 58:3 in a skit?”
  3. Read Isaiah 58 slowly, then Luke 4:16–21.
  4. Think of one fast that actually mattered to you (for a person, a decision, a burden) and what you noticed. You’ll share it in a minute or less.
  5. Look up (or ask your bishop) how fast offerings are used locally, so you can answer if a youth asks where the money goes.

If your class is wild

  • Don’t hand out Sabbath rulings. When a youth asks “Is it OK to…?”, turn it back: “What would it say to God? What would your parents and the Spirit say?” That respects their agency and builds judgment.
  • Some youth have family situations (work schedules, part-member families, sports families) that make the Sabbath complicated. Keep the tone warm and never single anyone out.
  • The Complaint Department skit is funnier if the Complainers are genuinely indignant. Let them overact.
  • If a debate gets heated, call a timeout and ask each side to say the strongest point of the other side. It cools things fast.
  • Fasting can be a sensitive topic for youth with health issues or eating concerns. Mention that fasting looks different for some people and that they can talk with parents and the bishop about what’s right for them.

1. Hook

The Honest Hunger Check

3 min

Admitting what fasting usually feels like makes room for Isaiah’s question: what is a fast actually for?

  1. SAY“No judgment. Raise your hand if you’ve ever fasted and spent most of it thinking about food.” Raise yours too.
  2. SAY“Raise your hand if you’ve ever felt like Sunday is basically ‘the day I can’t do stuff.’” Laugh with them.
  3. Ask: “So be honest: what do most people our age think fasting and the Sabbath are for?” Take a few answers without correcting any of them.
  4. SAY“In Isaiah 58, a whole nation felt the same way. They did the fast perfectly and then complained that God wasn’t noticing. The Lord’s answer surprised them.”
🌪️ If someone jokes “fasting is a diet,” go with it: “Isaiah would say that’s exactly the kind of fast that misses the point. Let’s see why.”

2. Story

Skit: The Complaint Department

6 min

Acting out Isaiah 58 lets the youth see the difference between a fast for show and the fast the Lord chose, and connects it to the Savior’s own mission in Luke 4.

  1. Hand out roles (tap Roles in Teach Mode). Say: “Nobody plays the Lord or Jesus. When They speak, I’ll read Their words.”
  2. Put the Hungry Neighbor just outside the door or at the edge of the room at the start, and tell everyone to ignore them until scene 5.
  3. Run the scenes. Readers read from real scriptures, not the screen.
  4. After scene 8, ask: “What was wrong with the Complainers’ fast?” (It was for show; they fasted while fighting and using people.) “What does the Lord’s fast do instead?” (Frees people, lifts burdens, feeds the hungry.)
  5. SAY“Jesus read Isaiah 61 and said that’s His mission. When we fast His way, we’re working with Him.”
🌪️ If the Complainers get too loud, have Isaiah blow the ‘trumpet’ (Sound Board) and everyone freezes.

3. Wiggle break

Delight or Duty?

2 min

Moving between two walls helps youth honestly notice how they feel about Sabbath activities, without anyone being judged.

  1. Point out the DELIGHT and DUTY signs. Say: “There are no wrong answers. Walk toward the sign that matches how this usually feels to you. The middle is fine.”
  2. Call out: “Sacrament meeting.” · “A long nap.” · “Family dinner.” · “Calling a grandparent.” · “Reading scriptures.” · “Seminary on Monday morning.” · “Doing something kind for someone.”
  3. After a few, ask: “What moves something from the DUTY wall to the DELIGHT wall?” (Doing it with people you love, choosing it yourself, understanding why, feeling the Spirit.)
  4. Read Isaiah 58:13. Say: “The Lord doesn’t just say ‘keep’ the Sabbath. He says ‘call’ it a delight. That’s something we choose.”

Class screen: ↔️ Delight or duty? Walk to the side that feels true. · No wrong answers · Isaiah 58:13

  2. Call out: “Sacrament meeting.” · “A long nap.” · “Family dinner.” · “Calling a grandparent.” · “Reading scriptures.” · “Doing something kind for someone.” Then ask: “What moves something from duty to delight?”
  3. Read Isaiah 58:13. Say: “The Lord doesn’t just say ‘keep’ the Sabbath. He says ‘call’ it a delight. That’s something we choose.”

Youth-Led: Unlock the Bands

4 min

A youth teaches the key verse with a simple object lesson showing that the Lord’s fast is about freedom, for us and for others.

  1. The youth you texted reads Isaiah 58:6 and teaches the motions once. Everyone says it together.
  2. The youth loosely loops the yarn around a volunteer’s wrists a few times (loose enough to slip out of; never tight). Say: “These are ‘bands.’ What bands or yokes do people our age get stuck in?” (A habit, anger at someone, anxiety, a secret, an addiction to a screen, a grudge.)
  3. For each real answer, the youth unwinds one loop and asks: “How could fasting and prayer help loosen that one?”
  4. The youth reads Isaiah 58:7 and says: “The fast also frees other people. Fast offerings feed and help people in our own ward and around the world.” (Show the donation slip if you brought one.)
  5. Read President Henry B. Eyring’s words from April 2015 general conference (in the Conference section): “Your fast offering will do more than help feed and clothe bodies. It will heal and change hearts.”
🌪️ Keep the yarn loose and on the wrists only. If the volunteer wants to wriggle free early, let them; it makes the point even better.

Youth-Led: Unlock the Bands (Hand Lock)

  1. The youth you texted reads Isaiah 58:6 and teaches the motions once. Everyone says it together.
  2. A volunteer clasps their hands tightly, fingers locked. The youth asks: “What bands or yokes do people our age get stuck in?” (A habit, anger, anxiety, a secret, a screen, a grudge.)
  3. For each real answer, the volunteer loosens one finger while the youth asks: “How could fasting and prayer help loosen that one?”
  4. The youth reads Isaiah 58:7 and says: “The fast also frees other people. Fast offerings feed and help people in our own ward and around the world.”

Class screen: 🔓 Every answer loosens one finger. Loose the bands! · Isaiah 58:6

5. Game

Sabbath Court

4 min

Real Sabbath dilemmas, argued by the youth, build judgment and the habit of asking what a choice says to God instead of hunting for loopholes.

  1. Split into two teams. Tap the Name Spinner to choose a speaker from each team.
  2. Read a dilemma. Each speaker gets 20 seconds to say what they’d do and why. Then the whole class answers one question: “What would that choice say to God?” The team whose speaker gave the most honest, thoughtful answer scores.
  3. Dilemmas: “Your club team has a tournament on Sunday and the coach is counting on you.” · “You left a huge assignment until Sunday night.” · “Your friend’s birthday party is Sunday afternoon.” · “Your new job wants you to work Sundays.” · “You plan to spend all Sunday afternoon scrolling.”
  4. SAY“I’m not handing out rulings. These are real, and families decide some of them differently. But the question ‘what does this say to God?’ will get you further than ‘is this allowed?’ Talk with your parents and pray about the hard ones.”
🌪️ If someone gives a joke answer, the other team can ‘appeal’ for a serious one. Keep it fast and good-natured.

6. Talk it over

Real Talk: Why Fast? Why Sabbath?

4 min

Honest questions help youth move from “rules I have to follow” to “ways I draw close to God and help people.”

  1. Sit in a circle. A youth reads each question and picks who answers.
  2. Share one real experience of your own with fasting or the Sabbath.
  3. Accept honest doubts calmly; the Complainers in Isaiah had them too.
💬 Ask the class
  • The people in Isaiah 58:3 felt like God wasn’t noticing their fast. Have you ever felt that way about prayer or fasting? What helps?
  • Isaiah 58:6 says the Lord’s fast looses “the bands of wickedness.” How could fasting help someone break a habit or a hard pattern?
  • What would make fast Sunday feel less like “being hungry” and more like drawing close to God?
  • For the Strength of Youth says keeping the Sabbath holy shows God you’re willing to dedicate a day to Him. What’s one way to do that that doesn’t feel like a list of don’ts?
  • Jesus said Isaiah 61 was His mission: heal the brokenhearted, free captives. How could our class join that work this month?

Class screen: 💬 Real talk: what are fasting and the Sabbath really for?

7. Testimony

Here I Am

2 min

A short, real testimony shows that the Lord still answers, “Here I am.”

  1. Quietly share the fast that mattered to you: what you fasted for, and what you noticed, even if the answer wasn’t what you expected.
  2. Read Isaiah 58:9: “Thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am.” Say: “I believe that promise, because…” and finish in one sentence.
  3. Give the challenge. Invite a youth to pray.

Story drama

Skit: The Complaint Department

Isaiah 58:1–11; 61:1–3; Luke 4:16–21 ↗

Parts to hand out

  • IsaiahOpens with a trumpet voice (Isaiah 58:1) and reads the verses from real scriptures.
  • Complainer 1Files the complaint: “We fasted! Why didn’t God notice?” Very indignant.
  • Complainer 2Backs up Complainer 1 while bossing the Worker around and bickering the whole time.
  • The WorkerKeeps getting ordered around by the Complainers, even on the fast day. Exhausted.
  • The Hungry NeighborStands outside the door the whole skit, ignored, until scene 5.
  • Synagogue CrowdEveryone else: fasting crowd, then the people in Nazareth listening to Jesus.

Scenes

  1. 🎺📣 Isaiah: “Lift up thy voice like a trumpet”

    The Lord tells Isaiah not to hold back. These people seem religious. They pray daily, they like knowing God’s ways, they fast. But something is badly off, and Isaiah has to say it loudly.

    🎬 Isaiah reads Isaiah 58:1–2 in a big announcer voice. The Crowd kneels and looks extremely holy.

  2. 😤📝 “We fasted! Why didn’t You notice?”

    The people file a complaint. They did the fast. They looked miserable. They skipped the meals. So why isn’t God responding? It’s like they paid for something and the order never showed up.

    🎬 Complainer 1 reads the first part of Isaiah 58:3 while waving a pretend complaint form. Complainer 2: “Unacceptable. I want to speak to a manager.”

  3. 🧹😩 Meanwhile, back at the house…

    The Lord answers (the teacher reads His words; no one plays the Lord). On your fast day you do whatever you want, you make your workers work harder, and you argue and fight. You fast to be seen, not to change.

    🎬 The teacher reads the rest of Isaiah 58:3–4. The Complainers boss the Worker around (“Faster! Sweep that!”) and bicker with each other, still looking holy.

  4. 🔓⛓️ The fast the Lord actually chose

    The Lord describes the fast He wants: loosen the bands of wickedness, undo heavy burdens, let the oppressed go free, break every yoke. It isn’t about looking sad. It’s about freeing people, starting with yourself.

    🎬 The teacher reads Isaiah 58:6. The Worker drops the broom. The Crowd pretends to snap chains off their wrists.

  5. 🍞🚪 Open the door. Share the bread.

    And don’t hide from people in need: feed the hungry, bring the poor into your home, clothe the cold. The Hungry Neighbor has been outside this whole time. Nobody noticed.

    🎬 The teacher reads Isaiah 58:7. The Complainers finally open the door, bring the Hungry Neighbor in, and share imaginary bread.

  6. 🌅🙋 Call, and He will say, “Here I am”

    Now the promises: your light breaks out like sunrise, your healing comes quickly, and when you call, the Lord answers, “Here I am.” He will guide you and make you like a garden that never dries up.

    🎬 The teacher reads Isaiah 58:8–9 and 58:11. Complainer 1 tears up the complaint form. Everyone stands like the sunrise.

  7. 📜🕍 Centuries later, a synagogue in Nazareth

    Hundreds of years later, Jesus stands up in His hometown synagogue on the Sabbath. He is handed the scroll of Isaiah and finds the place we call Isaiah 61. (The teacher reads Jesus’s words; no one plays Jesus.)

    🎬 The Crowd sits on the floor as the synagogue. The teacher reads Luke 4:18–19 aloud. Everyone’s eyes follow the teacher.

  8. ✨👀 “This day is this scripture fulfilled”

    He rolls up the scroll, sits down, and every eye in the room is on Him. Then He says the prophecy is fulfilled that day, in their hearing. The One who frees captives and heals broken hearts is standing right in front of them.

    🎬 The teacher reads Luke 4:20–21. Silence for three seconds. Isaiah says: “When we fast the way He chose, we’re doing His work.”

Key verse

Isaiah 58:6 ↗
“Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?”
In plain words: This is the kind of fast I want: loosen what’s tying you to sin, lift heavy loads off people, free the people being pushed down, and break every chain.
🙌 “the fast that I have chosen” = hand on stomach, then point up · “loose the bands” = wrists together, then pull apart · “undo the heavy burdens” = lift an invisible weight off a neighbor’s shoulders · “let the oppressed go free” = open hands and release a bird · “break every yoke” = snap a stick over your knee.

More verses

Isaiah 58:9 ↗
“Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am.”
In plain words: When you call out to Him, He answers: “I’m right here.”
Isaiah 58:13 ↗
“If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, from doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight”
In plain words: Stop treating the Lord’s day as just another day for whatever you want, and start seeing it as a delight.
Isaiah 61:3 ↗
“to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness”
In plain words: He trades our ashes for beauty, our grief for joy, and our heaviness for praise.
Isaiah 60:1 ↗
“Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.”
In plain words: Get up and shine. Your light has come, and the Lord’s glory is shining on you.

This week’s challenge

A Fast with a Purpose

Next fast Sunday, fast with a specific purpose: a person you want to help, or a band you want loosened in your own life. Start and end your fast with a prayer about it. This Sunday, choose one thing that would make the Sabbath a delight for you and one thing that would make it a delight for someone in your family, and do both.

Text the parents

This week in class the youth performed Isaiah 58 as “The Complaint Department”: people who fasted perfectly on the outside and complained that God didn’t notice. The Lord’s answer: the fast He chooses loosens bands, lifts burdens and feeds the hungry (Isaiah 58:6–7), and He promises that when we call, He’ll say, “Here I am.” We also talked about how to “call the sabbath a delight” (58:13). Ask your teen: what one thing would make Sunday a delight in our home?
