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.

THE POWER OF FASTING AND PRAYER 2 DOING THE IMPOSSIBLE!

 "But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting". You may not know what the future holds and that is the more reason why you should hold unto the one who holds the future. God knows what lies ahead of us this year and as we connect with him through prayer and fasting he empowers us to overcome, prevail and win over every battle, challenges and attacks of the enemy that may come our way. From the Scripture above tells us about the response of Jesus to his disciples when they were faced with an impossible situation that has to do with a man whose son was sick. The disciples tried all they could but their efforts to heal the young man was not fruitful. When Jesus showed up, the seemingly impossible situation became possible. Jesus was able to heal the man's son. So the disciples were amazed and they asked Jesus why they couldn't do it.  I declare: May Jesus shows up in your marriage, shows up in your finances, family in the name of Jesus. Where your strength...
SUNDAY 14TH JULY BORN FOR DOMINION Then God said, let us make man in our image, according to our likeness; let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over the cattle and over all the earth and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth. (Genesis 1:26). When God made man, He gave man dominion over everything on earth. To have an idea of the kind of dominion that man would have had if he had not sinned, let's look at the perfect man Jesus Christ. When Jesus wanted to pay the temple tax, He only needed to command a miracle money into a fish and sent his discipline to get it ( Matthew 17:24-27). When He wanted to feed the multitude, He only needed to multiply five loaves of bread and two fishes in His hands(Mark 6:34-44) and many other miracles Jesus did, manifesting His dominion on earth. He even brought the dead back to life because He had dominion over death. Child of God, you can walk in the same dominion Christ walked while on e...

CHOOSE TO SEEK GOD EARLY.

 O God, you are my God, early will I seek you;  my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water. Psalm 63:1 The choice to seek God early is the key to timely accomplishments in life. Many often miss their set time and season because of their unwillingness to seek God early. The psalmist said early will I seek thee. Don't wait for the worst to happen before you seek him.  As we begin this New Year, now is the time for you to prayerfully seek the face of God, listen to his instructions, enquire from him and receive God's vision for your life this year. Be intentional about your success this year. Take responsibility for your life. Be determined and committed to seek God early before you make any decision or conclude on anything this year. Those who seek God early can never arrive late and those who seek Him first can never be last. I pray that the Holy Spirit will guide you this year in all you do. No matter the pressure and c...
