THE POWER OF FASTING AND PRAYER 3 ACCESS TO DIVINE LEADING!


 While they were worshipping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them. Acts 13:2

Fasting and prayer gives us access to His leading. The early church wanted to be sure of those to send with the gospel to Cyprus. Instead of making their choice through the senses or  by men's opinion they decided to make out time to fast and pray about their decision. As we can see in our scriptural text, the bible says the Holy Spirit led them to set apart Barnabas and Saul for the work. When we fast and pray the Holy Spirit can lead us to make the right decisions this year,work with the right people and be in the right place.

A lot of people make a mess of their life and ruin their destiny because they don't spend time to enquire from God through fasting and prayers. Fasting helps increase your spiritual sensitivity. It makes the spirit to dominate the flesh and as a result of that, you are able to discern accurately the perfect will of God concerning you at all time.

Don't be in a hurry this year and start running around in the power of the flesh but rather seek for the help of the spirit. Remember the bible says in Zechariah 4:6  This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubabel, saying, not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

How you start can have an effect on how you will end. Start with God and you will have a blessed year. 

Psalm 23:3   True to your word, you let me catch me breath and send me in the right direction. 

Exodus 13:21  God went ahead of them in a Pillar of Cloud during the day to guide them on the way, and at night in a Pillar of Fire to give them light;

Don't be led by your feelings, information on your local television, environmental factor, be led by God. Let Him take the lead then you follow. Halleluyah! 

Pray With Me:

1. Thank you Heavenly Father for giving us the Holy Spirit to lead and guide us. 

2. Increase my sensitivity oh Lord and help me to be more yielded to your leading in Jesus name.

3. Holy Spirit influence dominates my mind and my entire life, for extraordinary living in Jesus name. Amen

PRAYER OF SALVATION:

I believe you have been blessed by this message. I invite you to make Jesus Christ the Lord of your life by praying this prayer now;

Father, I come to you in the name of Jesus Christ, I believe you died for  me and resurrected for my justification. 

Today, I confess with my mouth that I accept Jesus into my life as my Lord and Saviour; I receive forgiveness of all my sins. I'm born again. Thank you Lord for the salvation of my soul. 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...

FIGHT THE GOOD FIGHT

Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses (I Timothy 6:12). In the journey of life, battles are not optional but mandatory. Even at birth, a child must be made to cry. At that point, he fights to overcome the force that wants to keep his lungs closed; so as to  live. Henceforth, various battles begin.  When one becomes born again, the dynamics of the fight changes. He will still fight but this time around it is a good fight. The bible calls it the “Good Fight of Faith”. The fight is a good fight; the weaponry is also a unique one, FAITH. So a believer fights the good fight of faith, this fight is  termed a good fight because the end is determined from the beginning. Victory is guaranteed at the end. It is a fight to be won. Halleluyah! It is like watching a replayed boxing match whose winner you already know. The same way, God is not bothered about what fight ...

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. ...
