THE POWER OF FASTING AND PRAYER 1.


 In weariness and painfulness, in watching often, in hunger and thirst, in fasting often, in cold and nakedness. 2 Corinthians 11:27

The need for fasting and prayer in our Christian walk as believers cannot be overemphasized. Fasting is indispensable. Ever believer who desires spiritual growth, access to great dimensions of God's glory and power must be committed to consistent lifestyle of fasting and prayer.

The spiritual above 2 Corinthians, reveals a powerful secret of Apostle Paul.  The secret of the success and exploit of a man can be traceable to what he does often and not occasionally. 

Here, Apostle Paul makes us understand that he gave himself to fasting often. This undoubtedly show us what we must also dedicate ourselves to especially at this time of the year.

1 Corinthians 11:1 says: Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ. As we imitate Apostle Paul and follow suit, we will begin to experience the supernatural exploits in our time and day as seen in bible days.

We live in a generation where many desire greatness and just wish to accomplish what the Apostles of old accomplished but not willing to pay the price they paid. Beloved, greatness and success in life is not cheap and doesn't come easy. But it is obtainable and possible to those who are willing to do whatever it demands to get it. Don't just wish for it, pursue it and you will get a hold of it in Jesus name.

Isaiah 40:31  But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

Four things happen to you as you wait upon the LORD through fasting:

1. Your strength is renewed

2. You become high flyer

3. You enjoy supernatural strength and vitality. 

1 Thessalonians 5:16  Be joyful always;

PRAY WITH ME:

1. OH LORD, AS I TARRY IN YOUR PRESENCE THROUGH FASTING AND PRAYERS, SHOW ME YOUR GLORY THIS YEAR AND MAKE ME A LIVING TESTIMONY IN JESUS NAME.

2. I DRAW STRENGTH FOR THE RACE THROUGH  PRAYER  THIS WEEK IN JESUS NAME.

3. I COME AGAINST EVERY ATTACK OF THE ENEMY TO STOP MY COMMITTMENT TO GOD THROUGH PRAYER IN JESUS NAME. AMEN.

START WITH PRAYER.

 O satisfy us early with thy mercy; that we may rejoice and be glad all our days. Psalm 90:14 Starting the year in prayerlessness is a very dangerous move to make. From the scripture above, we see David placing a demand on God in the place of prayer for early satisfaction. He is asking God God to satisfy him early with mercy. Why was he specific by adding "early" and not just saying oh Lord satisfy us with your mercy? The mistake most of us make in our prayer, is failure to be specific and detailed in our prayer. The demand for earl satisfaction will result to early accomplishment and achievements. Now is the time for you to learn this wisdom from David and tell the Lord that you desire to be satisfied early in 2021 with his mercy, favour, goodness, presence, wisdom, success and vision. Halleluyah! Lateness and delay is when the achievement of January is accomplished in December. May you not be found sleeping while your mate are succeeding, maximising their year and prosperin...

THE POWER OF PATIENCE.

But as for me, I watch in hope for the LORD, I wait for God my saviour; my God will hear me (Micah 7:7). One of the characteristics of a matured believer is in his or her ability to patiently wait on God for his intervention even in the midst of fierce oppositions and challenges. From the anchor scripture, we see the prophet making this his personal choice- “But as for me”. He was intentional about it. You see, in life, you have to understand that following the crowd always can make you miss out on God’s plan for your life. There are decisions you have to make of which other people may never support or understand, because you desire to please God with your life and not man. Others may choose to cut corners, seek for short cuts which will ultimately cut them short. Some cheat their way through due to impatience, pressure to fit in, and low self-esteem. As believers, our response to life ought to be different. Prophet Micah said “I wait in hope for the LORD” do you know that, ho...

WEDNESDAY 21ST AUGUST FREE FROM CONDEMNATION For God sent not His Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through Him might be saved (John 3:17). There is no place for condemnation in Christ. God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but to save it. Romans 8:1 says, Therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Notice the scripture says, Now there is no condemnation. It is a present reality. It is not what we shall experience in heaven, but NOW. Today God wants you to receive the gift of no condemnation. This gift will cause you to walk tall and be a true success. This gift will also save you from a life of stress, fear, restlessness and even sickness and disease. That is because everything that happens in the soul-the emotional and mental realms will affect your physical body if it is not properly dealt with. It is interesting to know that the word ...
