dare2think:
How did you come to the conclusion that 'their substance' equated to finances?

GW translation makes it clearer.

Luke 8:3
. .Joanna, whose husband Chusa was Herod's administrator; Susanna; and many other women. They provided financial support for Jesus and his disciples.

Also
You stated that it could either be in form of praying or in form of finances, that is- If you need prayers= go and get prayed for- is the same applicable to finances.
If you have problems with Finances= go and get the support? not prayed for but actual assistance?
So, do they get assistance? not pray but 'financial'?

I don't get you, but what I meant by prayer is that I can partner with a man of God or a ministry through by intercession. Paul had some people who were partnering with him by labouring in prayers .

Colossians 4:12
12 Epaphras, who is one of you, a servant of Christ, saluteth you, always labouring fervently for you in prayers, that ye may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.

Those who have grace financially partner financially and those who have grace for intercession partner by praying for the work of God. Those who have grace for the two participate both ways.

Those who got blessed by the ministry of Jesus became his financial partners .

Luke 8:2-3
2 And certain women, which had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, out of whom went seven devils, 3 And Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, which ministered unto him of their substance.

Every ministry needs partners , some are prayer partners , some are financial partners.  Jesus had people who partnered with him , paul had those who partnered with him. If you believe in a vision  you partner with it.  I partner with tv  programme because I've seen many lives touched by it . I Partner with the healing school also . Apart from testimonies from all over the world of healings , I have sent certain individuals there and they recived healing .

Those who believe in a cause or those who had been Blessed by a ministry should partner with such ministry to reach others. That's why after I read some wonderful testimonies on Godprophet thread I encouraged those who had been blessed to partner with his ministry. That's how I became a partner with stations like TBN Because the station has been a blessing .It's a biblical principle.

You guys just love me so much , you can't  just  cease to think about me. MUAAAH!

Still thinking of my next nominee

Pls choose another name , na moderator I want

aletheia:
. . .you will never ever become a moderator on the religious forum. Never. Having tried everything to suppress the truth about your cult called Chris' Embassy and failed. . .you now want to be a moderator so that you can use strong arm Gestapo tactics (like your money-stealing, journalist-beating mentor) to shut others out. You don fail!
This is an open forum. If you don't like the message. . .go to yookos.
^Yeah. World-class resource center for grade A sycophancy and propaganda for Chris' Embassy.

Don't  be afraid I will only enforce the and make sure every one comply to rules . Disagreements  Can be done in a civic way. I won't witchhunt others like you  .  Because you have started harrassing me small small now. And it's touching thay you do this with the name of Jesus  

It will only be deserted by the abusive agberos posters. They will either change or be [size=5pt]Banned[/size] but more responsible posters will emerge world wide, and this section will be a world class resource Center. Not a place for harrassment

Maybe your post didn't go through
Or maybe network timed out
It happens sometimes

Let me make my question clearer. We have 2 major kinds of fastings (there maybe more) the first is a wet fast where you can break your fast daily throughout the number of days you are fasting .the second is a dry fast whereby you don't break the fast throughout the number of days.

The highest number of days Ive done in "wet" fast is 7days and I prayed very well each time. But the highest dry fast without break I've ever had is 3 days. And I personally find it challenging to pray energetically during those last 2 days i Laboured to pray . The first attempt i made i had to dtop the fast second day because of weakness . But hears later I've learned to force myself to do 3 days . Yet i still had the weakness in the body which made prayer a challenge.i have read about others who says when they feel weak a supernatural energy took over them and gave them supernatural strength.

Have you been too weak To pray ? How did you still manage to pray. Was there a supernatural energy that came or you struggled it out like me?. That's what I really wanted to know . Just incase someone finds himself in that shoe

This pastor couldnt hold himself after hering An old christin music down memory lane

I will give details tomorow

Yes that's what I meant , thanks

The story of the so called lost world and it's flood happened before the time of  Noah, even before Adam was created . There was a pre adamite world which lucifer headed. It was destroyed at their rebellion by flood.

I don't believe in a"Gospel of prosperity".i believe in the gospel and i believe that prosperity for Gods children is part of the gospel. Poverty is not his will. Maybe we open a thread to Discuss it.

Whole some believe a man can only be saved once ,some other believe that a man has to get saved over and over if he sins.

1 John 5:11
11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son.

If a man has recieved eternal life ,he is saved . A man can't be saved twice . What if a christian sins? . There are two kinds of sins. Missing the mark, and missing the way. Missing the mark is an act but missing he way is living in error. If you miss the mark you repent and be forgiven.  If a man miss the way he may May be restored ,but if he can't be restored he goes to Hell.

Once saved is always saved so long as a man keeps his salvation.

Hebrews 6:4-6
4 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, 5 And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, 6 If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.

Nothing is wring with loud or "violent" prayers. But Nobody has the right to disturb others. You don't have to shout out that loud. I can shout loud in my room without disturbing others. But if your voice must be extra loud, you should do what Jesus did ? Take a walk from home to an isolated place. You can shout the head off there.

Luke 6:12
12 And it came to pass in those days, that he went out into a mountain to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God.

Pastor Kun:

Are you honestly saying your church does not preach the word of God?,salvation.?living right? Etc ? They only talk about money? Pls respond.

Nothing is wrong if the pastor ask people to give in church . It's normal as long as there's need in your church there will be need for such call.

The issue of welfare is a different matter. It is not the church resoonsibility to feed you. If the church does that ,they are not helping you. You should get something to do rather. The church helps should go to those who can't help themselves , not able body adults. God is against laziness.

2 Thessalonians 3:10
. . this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

It is old widows God commanded the church to take care of in welfare . And they must have proven their service in Gods house over the years. God did not even allow the church to take care of welfare of young widows. They should meet their relative or get married.

1 Timothy 5:16
16 Let me remind you again that a widow's relatives must take care of her and not leave this to the church to do. Then the church can spend its money for the care of widows who are all alone and have nowhere else to turn.

God doesn't not encourage anybody to be a liability to the church. So don't try to make your self one. If you don't have a job ,get one, or create one , if you're a young boy, go to your parents.

If you don't have anybody,talk with your pastor . A real man of God will bring solution.

Revelation 19:10
10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God . . .

People worship the holy spirit on the ground that he is God also. But 3members of the Godhead seem to have their functions.  We pray to GOD in the name of JESUS by the power of the HOLY SPIRT

But to now choose one part if the Godhead to worship is somehow. The holyspirit didn't come to glorify himself.

John 16:13-14
13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

We are not to judge another person.

Matthew 7:1
1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.

But we can judge situation between one another . Its about the matter not about the person. Those who advocate judging only condemn others by there own myopic bias.

HOW DO YOU DEAL WITH WEAKNESS DURING DRY FASTING?

I once embarked on a 3 day fast, years ago and after day one I began to experience weakness in my limbs and  other parts. So bad that I couldn't even pray again, I didn't have strength to pray, I would just open my mouth and no voice comes out. I began to count time and hours. I even too a walk to distract myself frim the weakness, i almost fainted . I had to hold an elctric pole . Finally I broke the fast that 2nd day concluding that I would have strengh to pray better when I eat.

Do you experience such weakness when you fast without breaking
How did you conquer weakness of the body in a fast.
How do you get strength to pray?

@Sirjohn welcome and thsnks for your contribution.
@God2man thanks for your contribution and thanks to every other person i didnt mention who had shared with us here.

I will appreciate if you can contribute to my next question

@manmustwack

manmustwac:
Sorry solas I just copied and pasted last years format without reviewing it properly i've amended it now but if you can still see any errors in the format please don't hesitate to let me know.

The error is still there. Is it 2 nominees or 3 nominees?

-

There are three nominations per member.
-Where a member nominates more than two people - and we plead with you not to - only the first two will be taken.

-

Thanks for all your contributions . Rememmber the purpose of this is to encourage those who find it challenging to fast. I still wait for more contributions. I'm learning some things too.
