40 Days to a Better you! Day 35


February 4

It is Monday! This is the last Monday of our fast. God has done marvelous things but this is only a beginning. The Lord has changed you. Guess what He is not done yet a fast is a time of preparation for what God is about to do. Get ready!

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 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.

Isaiah 26:3


You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.

John 14:27

Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

Romans 14: 17, 18

"for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. 18 For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men."


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!

- Pray for your fruitfulness blessing. Fruit is a natural expression of abiding in the vine. As we are "plugged" into God he will cause us to bear fruit in everything we do! This is God's plan for your life! Believe it today.

 - Pray for all the Christians suffering persecution around the world! Today 500 people will either be persecuted or killed today for their faith. Men and women are fired from jobs, through into prisons, kicked out of schools, thrown into prisons all because they claim to be believers in Jesus.

         - Pray for the Spirit of Faithfulness in our culture. Faithfulness is not about standing when things are good but it is standing believing regardless of the situation. It is never giving up, never turning your back, always standing with the Lord and the people the Lord has called you to.

- Pray for one family in our church. perhaps someone who either their first or last name begins with "Y". Pray that the Lord would bless and encourage them in some way today!
