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) How is your reading coming? 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 Scriptures 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.
Matthew 11:4 - 6
And Jesus answered them, Go and tell John what you hear and see: 5 the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. 6 And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.

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 every day during our fast, a prayer of thanksgiving to God for what He has done for you!
- I want us to pray in a slightly different format today based on the scripture I have listed above. I have actually been wrestling with a prayer concern for nearly a month now. It has caused me a lot of sleeplessness and much concern during the day. It has been constantly on my heart. As I was praying this morning it was as if my blind eyes had been opened to the answer and my deaf ears had all of a sudden heard the answer. The answer was in front of me all of the time, but my concerned had blinded and deafened me to the answer. I am not sure at what point the concern overwhelmed the heart of prayer, but it did. As I was thanking the Lord for the answer, He reminded me that many in the church have the same struggle. The answer is right in front of them but the problem had become bigger than their prayer! Pray today that any area where you may "deaf or blind" to the Lord's answer that you may see and hear. He always answers! Then also pray that people you know who are struggling for answers may now see and hear their answers! God is very good!
- Pray for one family in our church. perhaps someone who either their first or last name begins with "A". Pray that the Lord would bless and encourage them in some way today!
