Zion Calendar Verse – February 17th,2021
…Says the LORD, “Turn to Me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning.” Joel 2:12
The great men of GOD in the bible fasted to repent for their sins, to seek the direction of GOD, holy spirit guidance, and deliverance from bonding’s.
The word of GOD that talks about fasting also mentions prayer. The two seem to go hand-in-hand. Jesus prayed and fasted, so did the disciples and many others.
This spiritual discipline of fasting and praying was important in the Old Testament, impactful in the New Testament, and is still a powerful way to approach GOD on a deeper level to taste His power, strength, and Love. The fasting and prayer is a great weapon to fight with invisible dark spirits.
“But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.” Mathew 6:17-18
Father God! Thank you for your son Jesus Christ! Please help me to humble myself and spend time in your presence, In Jesus name. Amen!!
