Fasting For Faith

  Come and hear, all of you who reverence the Lord, and I will tell you what he did for me: For I cried to him for help, with praises ready on my tongue. He would not have listened if I had not confessed my sins. But he listened! He heard my prayer! He paid attention to it! Blessed be God who didn't turn away when I was praying, and didn't refuse me his kindness and love. (Psalm 66:16-20)     Fasting and prayer can restore the loss of the "first love" for your Lord and result in a more intimate relationship with Christ.   Fasting is a biblical way to truly humble yourself in the sight of God (Psalm 35:13; Ezra 8:21). King David said, "I humble myself through fasting."   Fasting enables the Holy Spirit to reveal your true spiritual condition, resulting in brokenness, repentance, and a transformed life.   The Holy Spirit will quicken the Word of God in your heart and His truth will become more meaningful to you!   Fasting can transform your prayer life into a richer and more personal experience.   Fasting can result in a dynamic personal revival in your own life-and make you a channel of revival to others.   Fasting and prayer are the only disciplines that fulfill the requirements of II Chronicles 7:14:   Call to Action:  repent, prayer, get your mind right, meditate, limit your food intake, save some money, get in the Word of God. Start a new habit of prayer. Fast daily, if your health allows it.     Giving Links Thank you for listening, downloading and supporting the Speak Life Church and this podcast.      https://giv.li/p2nj61 Zelle  - [email protected] https://www.patreon.com/speaklifechurchpodcast You can support the ministry by check or money order by sending it to Speak Life Church, 14713 Kent Drive, Upper Marlboro, MD 20772   Rev.
