Fasting: Unlocking Your Supernatural Potential

DAY 3 OF 5

  

Fast. Pray. Listen.

If you fast in the wrong way, it’s ineffective.

Fasting is not just about abstaining from something you enjoy, or something you love to consume. It’s a matter of focus, spending intentional time talking to God. Fasting and prayer opens the doors to unlimited blessings and opportunity.

On the other hand, a prayerless Christian is a powerless Christian. A prayerless Christian is weak, someone who can easily be swayed when the enemy comes to lure them down the street of temptation. A prayerless family is a defeated family. Do you want to live a life of rich fulfillment? Then prayer and fasting are for you!

Prayer and fasting will strengthen you as an individual and set the example for your family and friends, letting them know what the life of a Believer can look like when you trust that the steps of a righteous man are ordered of the Lord. Fasting is putting your faith into action.

While we are often too busy to take time for ourselves, to visit with friends and family…we must remember to consciously set aside time for God in order to grow. This growth is not only in a spiritual sense but also personal and economic. If you are looking for a supernatural explosion of blessing in your life, for change that can alter your existence in the most positive way…it’s time to get on your knees and tell God about it. It’s time to start fasting in earnest.

Fasting allows you to invest time in building a deeper relationship with God. Then you must listen. God knows your need. He’s waiting for you to lay it at His feet. When you lay your burden down, it’s time to sit back and listen. God will tell you His plan and purpose for your life. He will direct your steps and lead you down a path of righteousness for His namesake. But you must be willing to fast, pray in Jesus’ name…and listen.

When you seek God with your whole heart, He will let you know that you’re traveling in the right direction, or that you need to alter your course. In this season of fasting, make sure that you’re listening to His voice and allowing Him to lead you in the right direction. He will make springs in the desert and cause blessings to overtake you. But first…it’s time to pray, to fast, and to listen.
