    The Secret To Unleashing The Power Of God

    Jesus said, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me" (Luke 9:23).

    TYPES OF FASTS

    A fast is abstinence from something -- such as television, movies, or other pleasures and amusements--but usually it means not eating food. When Jesus was in the desert, He fasted totally, without food. There is no mention that He went without water. Not drinking water would have been life ...read more

    We are not boldly able to look straight at the face of kings and say, ‘look, this is what God is telling you’ because we chat more on face book rather than with God like Daniel!

    You are greatly loved! Daniel 9:3 ‘And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes..’ Friend, the reason for our mediocre lives, broken homes and debt-drenched lives is because we read more of ‘how to become rich ...read more

    Did you ever realize that it was food that caused the fall of man? Fasting therefore involves abstaining from food that caused our fall and the receiving of a sinful nature.

    The Power of Fasting Ministered by Pastor Harold F. Weitsz – Sunday 14 January 2007 Gen 3:1-10 NKJV Now the serpent was more cunning than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made.

    Fasting and prying is the key to unlock blessings and victories on the spiritual battlefield.

    “When you fast....“ Mtt 6:5 “When you pray“ .... not if you pray. We do not question the validity of prayer. Of course Jesus wanted us to pray! But in the same sermon on the mount Jesus said: Mtt 6:16 “When you fast....“ not if you fast! With the same breath he spoke about praying and fasting. ...read more

    This message looks at what Jesus has to say about our physical appearance when fasting. The way we present ourselves physically can speak volumes about the inner man. Who are we trying to impress when we fast? Jesus or the people around us?

    I have entitled our message this morning, “The Right Way to Fast.” Jesus both practiced fasting and taught about it; and yet, fasting is something that is often feared and misunderstood. In many Christian circles, you rarely even hear about fasting; and yet, the Scripture mentions it more times ...read more
