Where you able to do a random act of Kindness yesterday? I hope so, if not you will have other opportunities during this fast.
Where you able to do a random act of Kindness yesterday? I hope so, if not you will have other opportunities during this fast.
1) Please remember to choose something to stop doing.
Whether it is....
- a bad habit
- a sin you have struggled with, or
- some kind of food or drink that you know is not good for you.
Whatever it is break free over this next 40 days
2) Keep reading Grace Walk and/or Holiness, Truth and the Presence of God
3) Get some kind of exercise - Go for a walk, park farther away from the store or the office. Take the stairs instead of the elevator. Find some way to help you physical body work harder and better for you.
4) Read the following Scripture and think and pray about it through out the day. See what revelation the Lord will give you about it for you day, week, year, or life. I felt we needed two scriptures today one from the Old Testament and one from the New!
Jeremiah 33:3
"Call to Me, and I will answer you, and show you great and mighty things, which you do not know."
Romans 8:31
"What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?"
God has a plan for each of us, it is on His heart and He will show it to us if we ask! No matter how difficult things may become, He is always for us! What does that mean for you today as you go through your day?
5) Please pray about the following items

5) Please pray about the following items
In the Lord's prayer we are told to ask first for our daily bread
- Pray today and everyday during our fast, a prayer of thanksgiving to God for what He has done for you!
- Pray for your relationship blessings, that the Lord will continue to heal and strengthen every relationship in your life! Pray that He will order your relationships as well, eliminating those that are not a blessing to you and strengthening all those where you can be a blessing. He can and will heal and strengthen every relationship we place in His hands!
- Pray for your employer. Every authority in our lives has been placed there by God for our good! I know some times it doesn't seem like that but they have been. Ask the Lord for wisdom on how to pray for your boss(es), for what they need most! Salvation may be there greatest need, healing my be there greatest need, freedom from fear and worry, whatever the need, the Lord will give you wisdom!
- Pray for the spirit of self-control to take a primary role in our culture. I am not sure there is much self-control in our culture at all. Marriages fail, people are in debt, diseases reign rampant all because we don't have much self-control. This is all part of the fruit of the Spirit for our good that we will shine as lights in the darkness!
