(FROM THE DECEMBER 2018 EDITION OF THE SEEDS OF DESTINY DAILY DEVOTIONAL BY DR. PASTOR PAUL ENENCHE)

FRIDAY,"DECEMBER 14, 2018

SCRIPTURE": Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness,"to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?... Isaiah 58":6

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: Fasting comes with a force that breaks things forth and opens doors where necessary.

Fasting is a major key to breaking forth in life and destiny. The period of fasting is a period of breaking forth in many realms. Fasting comes with a force that breaks things forth and opens doors where necessary.

There are many dimensions of breaking forth brought about by fasting. Let me give you three of them:

1. Breaking Forth into Liberty
The period of fasting is a period for breaking of chains,"ancestral and generational yokes and diverse bondages. It is a period of captivity turnaround (Isaiah 58":6).

2. Breaking Forth of Light
The fast period is a period of multi-dimensional explosions of light; it is the season where scriptures come alive (Isaiah 58:.

3. Breaking Forth in Health
During the period of fast,"diverse ailments and afflictions are healed (Isaiah 58":.

Now,"how do we fast productively?
1. Reach out to the needy as a lifestyle
Reaching out to the needy is a key to a productive fast. People who are hardened against the needy do not see much result from their fast (Isaiah 58":7).

2. Avoid careless talk
The period of fasting is the period of spiritual exercise and soberness. We must avoid vanity,"loquacity and talkativeness (Isaiah 58":9).

3. Avoid wordless fast
We must study the scriptures while fasting. Light and revelations come out from the Word during fasting (John 1:1-5).

Beloved,"make up your mind to fast often in order to deepen your relationship with God.

REMEMBER THIS": Fasting comes with a force that breaks things forth and open doors where necessary.

ASSIGNMENTS:
1. Take at least one day in the week to wait on the Lord in fasting,"praying and studying of the Word.
2. Let prayer flow sufficiently during fasting.

PRAYER": O Lord,"I ask for the grace to wait on You in fasting. Open my eyes to see and hear from You in this season, Lord, in Jesus’ Name.
