Day 16 of 21 Day Fast

Today we are praying for Salvation for a friend or family member

We are praying for people to have a consciousness of God

Pray for awakening of our spiritual inner man.

Meditation:
There are many people we know who are not in tune with life, themselves or the wider world around them, let alone do they have a thought or desire to think about a God or a creator.
So those of us who have been fortunate to have embarked on that spiritual journey are to be known as the torch bearers the light givers to the whole world around us.

Even if you don’t want to believe it we did not get here by ourselves, can you really sit and say we did.. ? when you truly stop, look and take stock of the intricacy of the human body, the very detail that is needed to form us from the instance of conception is absolutely amazing and out of this world.
So I cannot believe that we got here or just appeared by a mighty Big Bang or by some other means of evolution but that we were created, formed and crafted into who we are by a divine creator who we have to acknowledge for his wondrous works you and I.

Today focus on others focus on those who don’t know the creator, those who need to be enlightened to the truth of the matter, that God loves the world so much that he gave so that we could have an opportunity to live in and through him.
Focus on getting in tune with the spirit man in you through the power of the word of God.
Meditate on you look at the very palms of your hands for a moment the detail is so amazing this could not have happened by science or by chance you were formed and fashioned, fearfully and wonderfully made on the image of our creator. This is such wonderful revelation that we should be sharing!

Scripture Ref:
John 3:16. Ephesians 5:14
Ephesians 3:16, Genesis 1:27, psalm 139:14

Day 6 of 21 day fast

Prayer points from our list

2. Physical Healing for a family member, friend, or yourself

16. The development of a fuller devotional time with the Lord.

Thought for Today:

It’s the Lords will that all should be well in mind body and Spirit . We ourselves are responsible to ensure our physical health is at its best if we can, however we know sickness and ill health is prevalent whilst we are in our physical bodies and sometimes is unavoidable.
Today lets remember to firstly seek to look after the lords temple and to make right choices for better health and longevity.

I don’t know about you but I am always looking to deepen my relationship with the Lord. In order to know him we have to spend time with him, this calls for setting specific time aside where you can personally seek him in prayer, as well as listen so you can hear from him and for his direction. Purpose today to spend more time seeking God through his word, seeking his presence, seeking his peace and seeking his face.

Prayer Focus.
Dear Lord as we pray for divine healing today for ourselves , our loved ones friends and people we know, we ask for your divine intervention right now ! we pray for there to be a physical manifestation of your healing power. We pray against sickness, we pray against disease and mental ill health, we pray against joint pains, heart disease and cancers, we pray for renewed strength for those suffering at present and ask your Holy Spirit to touch them right now. Help us to bless you at all times and forget not your benefits of healing and deliverance from all things in Jesus name.

Lord we thank you for the opportunity to spend more time seeking your face, we thank you that you are here to seek and save us , help us to always to dig deep into your word for renewed strength ,fresh revelation and wisdom for living.
Thank you that you hear and answer us, thank you that you are always there never to leave or forsake us in Jesus name.

Scripture Reference:
Psalm 103:1-5 , Isaiah 53:4-5
Psalm 119:2. Jeremiah 29:3

Day 5 of 21 day fast

Day 4 of 21 day fast

Today’s focus is declaration 13 and 16

13- All past mistakes in my Life will not come back to attack me this year but they will burn with the fire of the Holy Ghost.

16- This year I shall not make any wrong or useless investments – with my time, my energy, my money, or with people.

Thought forTtoday:
I believe that the enemy tries to hold you from your destiny by trying to remind you of your past , past actions , past mistakes, past setbacks and this reminder sometimes stumps you in your growth- if you allow too much room for meditation on the past!

Today we are cancelling every negative past reminder from the enemy.. You are not that person anymore, you are a new creation in Christ Jesus able to do things through him who gives you strength.

Sometimes we also make mistakes with ourselves investing too much into things, people, projects that really either drain us , we’re designed to remove our focus from God or halt or destroy our destiny. Today lets remember wisdom is the principe thing.

Prayer point : Lets pray about and continually declare today that any mistakes, wrong choices, people, decisions made will not hinder your progress in The Lord and in life,

Lets pray that every set back will become a set up for your future,

Lets pray that every negative hinderance will be removed in Jesus name.
Lets pray that the wisdom of God prevails in every area of our lives.

Scripture Meditation
Proverbs 4:7
Phil3:13-14
Isaiah 43:18 -19

Have a blessed wise day..

Day 3 of 21 day fast

Day 3 of 21 Days Fast!

Please continue to decree and declare the points we shared on Sunday.

As I was reading Romans 12:2 – I wanted to remind you that we are on a journey where we are not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that we may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Therefore, whilst we are fasting we need to condition ourselves (minds) to strengthen our inner man and meditate on the scriptures, so that the Holy Spirit will draw us into a deeper relationship with Christ.

Let us continue to pray for a speedy recovery for Pastor Anneth.

Thought for today: Ask God to liberate us from bondage, and give us breakthrough in each of our circumstances in order that we can be better disciples for Christ!

Holding fast to that which good – 1 Thess 5:21, Heb 10: 23, Rev 3:11

God bless you all!

7 THINGS YOU CAN EXPECT…

1. You can expect it to be challenging and difficult. This will take discipline and focus on your part. Disciples are known by their discipline.
2. If you’ll stick to your commitment to the Lord you should see a great increase in your faith and your personal spiritual transformation.
3. God may answer your request during this 21 days but he may not. There is no way for people to know exactly what God is going to do. We do know that during this emphasis we will draw closer to the Lord and that is our responsibility.
4. You will be more sensitive to God’s Holy Spirit in your life. Removing the necessities and distractions of life will add a new sense of clarity to the voice of God.
5. You will have an increased fellowship with God and have a greater understanding of what it means to depend upon Him to meet your needs.
6. You should find yourself praying more small direct prayers throughout the day.
7. You should expect an increase in spiritual tension and resistance from the Devil however you have the power of the holy spirit to help to overcome this.

3 DANGERS TO GUARD AGAINST.
1. The God will reward me for this mentality. Fasting is not the “work” that earns blessings from the hand of God.
2. The Pride and Self-righteous attitude that can come with practicing spiritual disciplines. This is not about you being the best disciple; this is about your desire and hunger to draw closer to God.
3. The idea of breaking your fast because you’ve already done enough. Several times during the fast you will think to yourself “I can’t do this any longer”, and you will try to justify breaking your fast since you’ve already done more than ever before. Don’t quit. Stick to your commitment.

.
Here are some suggestions for children:
1. Their favorite cartoon or TV program
2. No Family TV on a specific day/night – use this time to play games or spend family time together
3. No “Fast Foods” for all or part of the 21 days
4. A special treat or snack
5. A favorite activity

1 Reason why God rewards Fasting
God rewards fasting when it’s done with the right heart. Proper fasting confesses that we are helpless without Him, and that we require Him to give us the Hope we need to press on in the world he created. This brings Glory to God because the giver always gets the Glory.

DAY 1 January 11
Genesis 16:1 – Genesis 18:15, Matthew 6:1-24, Psalm 7:1-17, Proverbs 2:1-5

Today is the first day of something new. Regardless of where you are in your relationship with God, 21 days of prioritizing the Lord over essential needs in your life will draw you closer to him and transform whatever needs to change. So today pray that God will help you to envision how you will resemble him more closely at the end of these 21 days.
