The Holy Spirit Is Using Our Fast
The Holy Spirit is using your fast to reveal your true spiritual condition, resulting in brokenness, repentance and a transformed life. “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, Neither shall any man pluck them out of your hand.” (John 10:27-28)
On your twelfth day of fasting, remember:
- Drink water and juice
- Rest to maintain your energy
- Prayer in your designated place
- Journal your daily thoughts
- Continue to focus on God
- Chew sugar free gum
- Speak with a partner from your group
Physical Effects:
- Weight loss continues
- Bad breath is still apparent
- God’s presence is apparent and heightened
- Hunger is still an issue, but keep focused
Today’s Quote: “God looks throughout the earth looking for those faithful few that He can pour out His blessing on in extraordinary ways. God wants to use you in ways you cannot begin to imagine. All He is looking for is a life completely focused on Him. When you fast, you attract His attention as one willing to venture beyond the norms of religion and into the great adventure.” (Jentezen Franklin)
Thoughts for your Journal:
- Has God revealed anything to you personally?
- Reflect on what it means to present your body as a living sacrifice through your time of fasting.
