LASTING BY FASTING.
SCRIPTURE: 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. Isaiah 40":31THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Your longevity is connected to your spirituality; last Fasting is abstinence from food or a thing; it is a highly spiritual activity that produces lasting impact. You cannot be spiritual without a vibrant lifestyle of fasting. Your spiritual life cannot survive without fasting (Mark 9:29). This implies that your natural life would be helpless without and fruitless without fasting, in addition fasting also amplifies prayer. It is important to know this fact, "if you must last on earth, you should have a fasting schedule. Your longevity is connected to spirituality; to fast is to last. When Esther, Mordecai and the entire Jewish people were faced with the threat of extermination in the Persian Empire, it was through fasting that God intervened and saved them (Esther 4":16). Esther to appear before the king and won the king favor because she prayed and fasted.
Please understand: Your preservation is linked with your dedication in fasting. To have a lasting result, “you must have a fasting schedule; anyone who cannot fast, cannot last. The lack of fasting is a reason for the abortion of great destinies, example Daniel was able to exploits higher than all the magicians and philosophers of Babylonians because of his prayer and fasting lifestyle, Samson could not complete the assignment he was born for because he was not a prayer and fasting personality which lead to the abortion of his destiny. There are things you can never access or achieve without fasting (Mark 9":29). To fulfil some purposes of your life, you must learn how to fast. The truth is those who feast instead of fasting may fall while those who refuse to feast but fast are to fly higher in life. There is a difference between fasting and playing and fasting and praying, you may be fasting but instead of praying you are playing, if there is no any sense of seriousness while fasting, such fasting is regards as 'fasting and playing'. Those who are feasting and playing while others are fasting and praying cannot have their impacts stand the test of time. Beloved, “whatever fights your ability to fast, fights your life and destiny. So, fight it brutally if you must make a lasting impact on earth.
