Fasting & Praying Guideનમૂનો

For his third temptation, Satan leads Jesus to a high mountain and shows Him all the kingdoms of the earth. He offers them all to Jesus; if only He will bow down and worship him. This is the temptation of power and personal glory.

Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’”

The truth is that every kingdom Satan showed Jesus would be rightfully His in any case.

Reflection:

Fasting makes you physically weak, limits your work output, and forces you into a state of needed spiritual stillness.

This stillness, though challenging, creates space for God to move in ways we might not experience otherwise. As our physical strength diminishes, we are invited to lean into His strength, discovering that His power is made perfect in our weakness (2 Cor. 12:9). It’s often in these moments of limitation that we see God’s provision and grace most clearly, whether through unexpected clarity, supernatural peace, or simply the ability to endure.

In moments of physical weakness throughout this fast, how have you found strength in God? How can you continue to find strength in Him even after you finish your fast?
