DAY 10 OF
PRAYER & FASTING:
SCRIPTURE:
Luke 2:37 and then was a widow until she was eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying
PRAYER STARTER:
Father God, I thank you, for keeping us all year. The New Year can often bring a mixed bag of emotions and memories for many of us. The events of 2021, including an ongoing pandemic, racial tensions, joblessness, and political unrest created an unprecedented time of unrest and anxiety. While some may have just experienced the best year ever and look forward to an even greater one ahead, others may have just trudged through one deep struggle after another. The fresh calendar year brings desperate hope for things to be better, with an ache for the still-fresh wounds to slowly begin their process of healing. Praying at the start of the New Year doesn't always bring immediate change at the stroke of midnight, but it begins the opening of our hearts to God's Words of hope and peace and trusting GOD no matter what. I'm excited about these 31 days of praying and fasting because we can start on a new journey, a new destiny and a new purpose in life. This is the 10th day of the fast. I’m so grateful and thankful to God for this opportunity to increase my relationship with Him and exploring all the possibilities that we can experience on these 31 days of a journey of prayer and fasting. I thank Him for allowing us to develop a closer and stronger relationship with Him. I have great expectations to see all that’s going to happen on my journey as I go through these 31 days of prayer and fasting and consecration. I printed out my fasting contract so that I can detail the things that I want to offer up to God and to see him move on my behalf. I don’t know if anyone has been on a spiritual fast before, but this is my 17th year of my journey of fasting and praying with GOD guiding me. In 2022, I’m expecting a higher move of GOD, along with signs and wonders. I'm asking him continuously, to build me up to strengthen me to walk with Him and to take me higher in Him. Last year was a very trying time, but I’m embracing this year and this new season with great anticipation that we’re going to see a mighty move of God. I’m very excited about the move of GOD in this season. Let’s see what GOD is going to do in these 31 days of prayer 🙏🏽 and fasting.
Fasting From wrong thinking is working! Stay on this journey with me. These seeds will produce the great harvests you have always wanted and needed in every area of your life.
Today we’re fasting from the thought that says, "What’s wrong with me?"
The constant awareness of our "falling short" is where the devil and religion wants to keep us. This keeps us defeated and hemmed in by shame, rather than liberated through our divine nature. 2 Peter 1:4 says, "Through His promises, we share in the divine nature of GOD and escape the corruption that is in the world."
WISDOM ON FASTING
Fasting is what prepares you for a new level. I’m convinced that we will never walk in the perfect will of God until we seek him and commit to fasting and praying. When you present your body in this manner, you open your self to hear from God. You will prove and discover his good and perfect will for your life. Paul was fasting when God called him and shared the assignment for his life. Peter was fasting on the rooftop when God gave him a new revelation and called him to take the gospel to the Gentiles. Fasting prepares the way for God to give you fresh revelation, fresh vision and clear purpose in life. In the book of Joel, the LORD said, "it shall come to pass after word that I will pour out my spirit on all flesh your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, young men shall see visions." GOD'S going to pour out a revival. Afterwards, he will reveal his will for his people. Afterward? After what? After the fasting. Israel was in sin and GOD was calling his people to fast and repent as a people. He told them to blow the trumpet in Zion. To consecrate a fast. If GOD is going to pour new wine, our wineskins will have to change. JESUS said no one puts new wine into a old wineskins or else the new wine burst the wineskins and the new wine is spilled and the wineskins are ruined. But new wine must be put into new wineskins. I had never seen the connection between fasting and the new wine before, but if you look at this passage, JESUS had finished telling the Pharisees that his disciples would fast once he was gone. Fasting is what prepares you for a new anointing. GOD can’t put that kind of wine in old skins. If you want new wine, new miracles, closeness with GOD, a new ministry, new intimacy with God, new ideas , new businesses and new relationships, then it’s time to call a fast and shed that old skin for the NEW. Fasting is a tremendous weapon and a source of power in the life of a believer. I have seen so many blessings in my life that are directly attributed to the fasting and praying in my life. There are so many amazing things in the Body of Christ that we are experiencing on the fast. We are seeing signs and wonders so I'm encouraging you to keep pressing, keep going and let’s see it out to the end.
