21 Days of Fasting and Prayer Devotional: Mountains Will Move!Sample

Day 12: Supernatural Results Are on Their Way!

Prayer and fasting are some of the key ways we can accelerate the Lord’s blessing in our lives. But, these spiritual disciplines also cultivate a greater sensitivity to God’s voice and open our eyes to what God is doing in the unseen.

Daniel 10 provides an incredible story that gives us a behind-the-scenes look at what takes place in the supernatural realm when we are fasting. After receiving an upsetting vision of the future, Daniel decides to fast and pray for 21 days. The results are unbelievable.

On day 24, three days following the fast, Daniel’s spiritual eyes and ears are opened as he sees and talks with the brilliance of the pre-incarnate Christ! Through this miraculous encounter, Daniel is given supernatural strength and insight into the future because he prayed and fasted! “And he said, ‘O man greatly loved, fear not, peace be with you; be strong and of good courage,’” (Daniel 10:19).

God wants to strengthen his people, and fasting helps bring that supernatural strength! Even when your body feels weak from fasting, know that God is strengthening you spiritually!

What situation have you been praying for but have yet to see answered? Whether it’s the restoration of a broken relationship, the salvation of a relative or co-worker, or breakthrough financially, fasting is the path for believers to see and hear from God. As you are fasting and praying, remember that supernatural results are on their way!
