Praise the Lord. Today I am on the 21st day of my fasting. Believe it. That I am continuing this fast for another 21 days including on 25th December. Many of my brothers and sisters have shown inclination to do fasting for a while. Herebelow I will give some details on this topic. I will also post few lines daily on this subject for a few days. Before starting Fast, it is essential to know these things LOUD AND CLEAR : God looks at a pure, contrite and a humble heart before HE manifests HIS works in that person. Just a person has repented and been baptized in the name of Jesus, that does not give a licence to keep sinning and get away scot free. It is mandatory that a person confesses all his or her sins to Jesus and repenting; ask for forgiveness from Him. Similarly all persons that have hurt you must be forgiven. No exception. No excuses. Kneeling down in your room and weeping. And telling not to repeat any more. (Matthew 6:6-15; Mark 11:25-26). Even if a person is demanding divorce and doing nasty things, your duty is to forgive him or her. Or for that matter for any other situations too. Because Christ has said : You are bought at a price. You are not of your own. You belong to God. Bless your enemies. Bless them and do not curse. Bless those who hate you. Judge not that you be not judged. Condemn not and you will not be condemned; Judge not and you will not be judged; Forgive and you will be forgiven. After this, kindly see if you comply with these verses in full in your everyday practical life : Colossians 3:8-9; Philippians 2:14; I Thessalonians 5:17-18, 22; II Thessalonians 3:10 Philippians 4:6. Then get ready to start Fast if you decide. PRAYER AND FASTING Read Isaiah 58:6 Is not this the fast that I have chosen ? to loosen the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke ? Day 1 : God is calling His people today, to sanctify a fast. Read Joel 1:13-14; 2:15-18. As we begin this prayer and fasting together, it is crucial for you to know what God is directing us to do. If you do not understand the spiritual significance of what we are doing, you will not be able to experience in your life the tremendous breakthroughs God has promised. Christ himself said this kind can come out only by prayer and fasting. We are praying and fasting to break the chains of bondage of our families ...... off our bodies .... off our finances, etc. I will continue in the posts daily : Why should we fast ? Prayer and Fasting will enable you to break satans line of resistance. Gods Power is released in your life as you fast and Pray. Through Prayer and Fasting we can move the Hand of God. How can we fast ? * A total or complete fast, where neither food or water is consumed. * A fast where only water is consumed. * A partial fast, where an individual abstains from eating specific foods, and eats only vegetables or drinks only liquids. This series on Prayer and Fasting will continue for a few days. Brothers and Sisters in Christ, I will be posting daily on atleast one subject - verses regarding Gods answer concerning Financial Trouble, Marital Problems, Discouragement, Establishing Safety for your children, You are feeling confused, When trouble hits your house, Have you been deserted, Temptation, Blessing and Prosperity, Being Dissatisfied, Confidence, Fear, Depression, Loneliness, Sickness, Worry and Condemnation. Kindly let me know as and when you need them. Prayer - Concerning Worry and Fear I am the body of Christ and satan has no power over me. For I overcome evil with good. I am of God and have overcome satan. For greater is He that is in me than he that is in the world. I will fear no evil, for Thou art with me, Lord. Your Word and Your Spirit, they comfort me. I am far from oppression and fear does not come near me. No weapon formed against me shall prosper, for my righteousness is of the Lord. But whatsoever I do will prosper, for I am like a tree planted by the rivers of water. I am delivered from the evils of this present world, for this is the will of God concerning me. No evil will befall me. Neither shall any plague come near my dwelling. For the Lord has gjven His Angels charge over me, and they keep me in all my ways. And in my pathway is life and there is no death. I am doer of the Word of God and I am blessed in my deeds. I am happy in these things, which I do because I am doer of the Word of God. I take the shield of Faith and I quench every fiery dart that the wicked one brings about me. Christ has redeemed me from the curse of law; therefore I forbid any sickness or disease to come upon this body. Every disease, germ, every virus that touches my body dies instantly, in the Name of Jesus. Every organ, every tissue of my body functions in the perfection to which God created it to function, and I forbid any malfunction in my body, in the Name of Jesus. I am an overcomer and I overcome by the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of my testimony. I am submitted to God and the devil flees from me because I resist him in the Name of Jesus. The Word of God is forever settled in heaven, therefore I establish his Word upon this earth. Great is my peace (the peace of my children), for I am taught of the Lord. I am (they are) protected. I am (they are) wealthy. I am (they are) healthy. I am (they are) anointed, whole, nothing missing, nothing broken in my life (the lives of my children). All my Facebook friends including those who sent a friend request today are kindly requested to visit my wall and read all my posts and then read all those verses from the Holy Bible and meditate on them very deeply. Please also participate in the Bible Quiz that can be seen on my wall daily. If anyone wants to ask anything, please write on timeline including your prayer requests, if any. I am praying for you all. As soon as I get the time, I will reply to each one for sure. GOD BLESS YOU ALL. If any one else too has prayer requests then kindly get in touch with me (Man of God) and send a friend request; provided you are ready to listen, obey and do as directed. I will pray for each one separately in the Name of Jesus. Amen.
