Which Is More Potent? Fasting Or Midnight Prayers?

In my spiritual life, fasting has proven itself to be by far more potent and powerful, even though i still observe both.

A times I may be doing midnight prayers for months, but certain things I pray for wouldn't materialize.

But once I just fast for a little while, immediately the solution would just come out of nowhere as though it's been waiting for me to fast.

This has happened on several occasions that it's made me to take serious notice, and to begin to rate it more than midnight prayers, even though I also receive a lot of answers from prayers, because fasting seems to have a significant edge over it.

I first noticed how effective it was when during my fasting at a point when I was still struggling with sexual lusts, how the inclination just seemed to disappear during the period I was fasting, it felt really strange because this was something that I found very difficult to contain regardless of how much I prayed and when I prayed.

Even when it comes to dealing with those of the powers of darkness, fasting has shown itself to be more much powerful than midnight prayers.

For instance, despite that i had been told I had been given authority over the demons, there were yet some NL witches that were proving very stubborn even after and when I did midnight prayers. But once I just fast, the way they suddenly go into hiding is mind blowing. I mean they literally disappear for a long time and only come out after a while.

This is perhaps the reason Jesus said that there are some kind of demons that cannot come out without fasting. Mark 9:29 (KJV)

I don't know about you, but fasting has proven itself to be a very effective and useful weapon in my spiritual life, that even things I thought were impossible and beyond my reach, it helped me to achieve. It seems to speed up the process of my getting solutions and answers.

I recommend fasting to you, even if you do midnight prayers. It may provide the much needed boost your spiritual life has been crying out for.

God bless.

I'm sorry what is the evidence for the existence of witches?? Keep living a fantasy believing in imaginary enemies.

You are delusional bro. There is no such thing as witches.


Why can't you fast about Nigeria's problems so that they can disappear??

Fasting and prayers won't solve shit.

You Nigerians are something else. There is no potency in joblessness. Yes prayers and fasting is joblessness.

I think it's fasting, it cleanse and Purify your soul,I do fast at least twice a week and it's part of my life activities and the experience has been awesome. God always make difficult situations easy for me and grace follows me everywhere despite my shortcomings. I'll advise people to learn the habit of fasting and experience the wonderful handwork of God

God is omnipotent and Omniscient, yet one would have to starve oneself, or stay awake till nightnight to beg him for protection and ask for provision.

That particular setup doesn't really make sense

The carnal mind cannot comprehend the things of the Spirit.

It wouldn't make sense to those who are not born of the Spirit but of the flesh.

Obviously you tried only fasting and it worked without trying midnight prayers and you concluded that fasting works better than midnight prayer. Am I right?

Yes! It does not but these people will never let it go.

Rather than learn the right way to go, they think that by stealing parts of His Fabrics, they can use it to their good Fortunes.

But alas, when it does not work, they shall come out to cry "there is no God. I have been praying for 20 years and fasted for 40 years, but God did not Answer. I was a born again Christian. So I can authoritatively say there is No God"

Wrong procedures always results in FAILURES!

Keep living your fantasy.

People do not lose their religion because they prayed to god and did not get an answer. What sort of dystopian nightmare do you live in?

Thanks for your suggestion.

Though, it is not as if Midnight Prayers is no longer effective, but since you've mastered the act God wants to add another effective tool which is Fasting.

A complete warfare package comprises of one that utilizes all the arsenal and strategy at the Government's disposal. So when one Soldier focuses more on one weapon, God shows him the secret of another weapon so He would not be stranded when he meets an opposition that is not affected by the weapon he had mastered.

Happy Sunday Sir..


*******

Off Topic.

@Seun

It is very disheartening that every Christian topic is flooded with posts from people that do not believe in our God nor care about the burden of the OP even in a Sunday morning.

It is very disheartening that NAIRALAND is Bias based on this matter, and I think it is not a big thing for you to do (since you've addressed it in the Muslim section)

Someone would bring up a burden, looking for solid help but "unknown gunmen" would just flood the topic to cause great distraction and the purpose of the topic is not achieved.

This is very UNFAIR to the Christian body here, and if you stand for equity you are supposed to do something about it.

Thanks!
Re: Which Is More Potent? Fasting Or Midnight Prayers? by christaddicted:
They go together.

Fasting draws one closer to God. Makes one conscious of righteousness; a true one not a pious or sanctimonious living like the Pharisees; those religious bigots.

Jesus said "this goeth out but by FASTING & PRAYER".

Fasting shapes one & put one in alignment with God.
