I'm checking out the little story in 2 Kings about Elisha helping a widow out with a super cool miracle. This whole story is told to us in 7 verses, but each sentence is so jammed packed! Each verse could easily have a sermon of it's own! In verse 1, the widow was focusing on her inabilities & what she didn't have. She came to the prophet and declared all of her lack. And he, in turn says, "Yeah, but what do you have?" And so we want to be mindful of our thoughts. When we focus on our lack or even comparison of what someone else has, we allow negativity to consume us. While that is a huge point to the story, I'm also noticing that she's in a new season. Sometimes, we look back in our past and we expect God to provide for us the way He did before. And God's like, "nope, this is a new season. I'm going to do a new thing for you." Are you feeling that you are in a new season now? It feels so uncomfortable because what we've experienced in the past worked and we want to put those formulas back in place. This is just one of the 5 major keys I discuss from 2 Kings chapter 4. These are actually very practical steps we can all apply to see God intervene for us. There's 5 steps, but I already revealed step 3 in an entire podcast last week. Check that one out first if you haven't already.

Have you ever thought, "I only have … How can this be enough?" That's the very thought I had that changed my life. As I sat in my chair where I normally do my client sessions, I thought, "oh no! I really wanted to pray … but God, I only have 5 minutes." I literally had five minutes until my call would begin, and I heard God so clearly say, "can I have it?" And I thought to myself, what a strange thought I had never thought of it in that way. I thought this was trash. It's only five minutes. What can God do with five minutes? But I know I heard Him. Hmm, I said I wanted to give it to Him, but did I really? So, I went to my prayer closet. And that five minutes changed my life. I will never not give him my five minutes because of that one time that I did. He met me so radically. I see five steps to your miracle in the scriptures in 2 Kings chapter 4. These are actually very practical steps we can all apply to see God intervene for us. There's 5 steps, but in this week's podcast, I'm revealing step 3 first.

Curious about fasting? I've tried to study it at times, but found it really hard to find real-life details of what I should expect or how to do it. I remember I was feeling pulled to fast for a long period. I was curious about what I should expect and had so many questions. I asked all of my close Christian friends, but was kinda surprised to find out they had no clue what I should expect because they had never experienced it nor known anyone who did. So, I did the best with what knowledge I had and let the Lord lead the way. In today's podcast episode, I discuss all the things that I experienced and how I turned fasting into a weekly discipline. If you're thinking about fasting, I strongly recommend researching it and praying before you ever begin. If you aren't used to discerning God's voice, here's an example of how to pray and just believe by faith that He heard you and He will shut the door if he needs to. Pray this with me if this is resonating: "Father, I want to fast so that, {and you would mention your "why" … maybe it's so that I would quit reaching for temporary pleasures to meet my needs.} I want you to meet my needs. And {here's my how} I feel like I should fast by not eating any food for one day. That's my plan unless you show me otherwise, In Jesus name, amen." Tune in to the podcast today as I give you all the juicy details I've experienced so you can avoid the pit falls.

Ever wondered what the point of fasting is? If you don't know why you're doing it, then you probably shouldn't be doing it. And I would say that's true of any spiritual thing. I've heard far too many Christians tell me that they have done a fast with their church, but didn't benefit from it. They hated every minute of it. They were hangry. They were mad. And the only results that they found from that fast was they were mean to people. Is that really why God would want us to fast … to be mean to people? I don't think so. I don't think that that works for me. So I want to know why I'm fasting and it should make me a better person. It should make me a better follower of Christ in some capacity. You have to know why you're doing spiritual things to receive benefits from them. Fasting isn't to change God or change His mind or to make God do anything actually. Fasting is supposed to change us. There's many reasons to fast, but I like to talk about 6 of them. We would fast for our mind, our will, our emotions, our body, approval from others, and for a breakthrough. Here's a link to a blog about the topic: https://heatherobrien.net/blog/f/6-reasons-to-fast Links to Books & Courses mentioned in episode: https://heatherobrien.net/courses Book your prophetic healing session here: https://squareup.com/appointments/book/21ig91cgi5o13v/LA7GRN6HHX65N/services Free Weight Loss Declarations & Prayers: https://mailchi.mp/d507cdb89f3e/97kjj2g2gs

If you're struggling to get your want to lose weight, to match your actions, I want to help you. Don't let this "want" pass you by without considering it is also God's "want" for you. I'm interjecting the fear of the Lord into your life with this thought. I hope you hear me right now. He wants you to be in good health. God won't lead you to these healthy desires without actually empowering you to fulfill them. Add prayer and some accountability into your plan and watch God move on your behalf. Pray this with me if this is resonating: "God, I'm asking right now that you would release the supernatural empowerment for me right now to actually surrender my want and will to you. Please release the fear of the Lord to rest on me, that I would have the grace, the strategies, and the ideas that come from you for the supernatural fast. I thank you for it God, in Jesus name, Amen." I pray that over you as well. I bless you, warrior. Tune in to the podcast today as we discuss dieting & fasting existing together.

Are you ready to manifest supernatural weight loss ... with God? Have you prayed for it and wondered why it's not happening? Maybe you want physical weight loss or spiritual weight loss from burdens. Either way, it's possible with God, so why isn't it working? Hinderance 1 - (go to previous episode) 4 biblical laws of sowing and reaping that may be hindering your supernatural weight loss. Hinderance 2 - (go to previous episode) identity thieves ... especially ones telling us we aren't lovable or beautiful ... keep us from receiving. Hinderance 3 - (go to previous episode) What do you reach to for comfort? Do you have unaddressed pain that you keep avoiding? Hinderance 4 - (go to previous episode) Are nutrition labels & calorie counting stealing your worship? Worship is when we place value on something with our time, attention, finances, & other capabilities. Anything we worship other than God is idolatry and needs to be removed from our life. Hinderance 5 - (go to previous episode) Need freedom from dieting? You cannot use a negative emotion to motivate you into something positive. The word diet has the word "die" in it. You're not going to get skinny by hating being fat. And today I want to talk to you about having a prophetic vision instead of having a dieting plan. Hinderance 6 - Performance. We've got to steward the mundane if we want to steward the supernatural ... like supernatural weight loss. We must steward our thoughts, what's going on in our heart, in our mind, and in our life. We've also got to steward our body if we want to see the supernatural, but we got to do it in a holy way. We can't do it through works and performance.
