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.

The reason those you termed NL Witches stopped engaging you in any discussion is because you're as predictable as a religious pharisee.
Perhaps if they saw any true substance of spiritual gifts in you and your good deeds, they'll be drawn to you and who knows perhaps be converted too.

Permit me to ask, With all your fasting and prayer, how many souls have you won to Christ even on NL?

People are going through real issues here how many people have you received revelation or prophecy about?
How many have received healing in the name of Christ through you?

Nigeria is getting worse day by day even though it boasts of more Christains than any other religion. Should you not be asking yourself this questions?

Anyway, fasting simply helps you discipline your flesh inclinations as you become more sensitive when you fast. Even your spiritual antenna pick up more signals when you fast.

Midnight prayer or day time is not the point. All we can learn from Jesus in the bible is that his prayers were regardless of time of the day, he simply avoided distractions and tried to find an isolated place to commune with God.
Midnight proves more effective simply because there are less distractions by midnight.
But for someone whose room is next to a club house, I can assure you that day time is more effective.

Shalom

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??

Actually there are witches and even some atheists are self confessed witches but they clearly have no supernatural powers and merely practice witchcraft as an aspect of the natural world. They are more like herbalists than magicians.

Guy, you're suffering from religious trauma when you feel that before you can get some solutions, you must either fast or do midnight prayer sad sad You're lost in your trauma syndrome. How many fasting and midnight prayers did Jeff Bezos and all the richest people in the world do?

Guy, you need to go see a therapist.
Re: Which Is More Potent? Fasting Or Midnight Prayers? by wirinet(m): 9:37am On Oct 17, 2021
None is more potent than the other as both are useless. As the saying goes "Two hands working can do more than a thousand clasped in prayer."

Too much fasting and midnight prayers may even be harmful to the physical and metal wellbeing of a person. Imagine telling someone that is sick or have some medical condition like ulcer to fast. Same thing with midnight prayers, not getting adequate sleep will make someone less functional and productive at work the next day, that is apart from the mental and psychological problems of sleep deprivation.

The amount of time Nigerians waste in fasting and prayers, if we put it to use in actual work, learning and research, we would be the greatest nation on earth.

Seriously there's no much difference between the religions we have here. Someone expressed himself complain about not getting desired answers after praying for 40yrs not his fault cos the bible says ask and it shall be given. Instead of you to console him all u could say is it's his fault. Every religion has a way of being offensive whenever there's a contrary opinion to their belief. With what u displayed u are not different from Islamic terrorists. The only reason why yours is a subtle way is just because of some western exposure. I cone in peace
Dtruthspeaker:


No offence taken and I know The Truth, like a sword, has gone through the souls of all you former church visitors who in Truth said these things, which is why you all bought the religion of Anti-God when you saw people were becoming Anti-God.

And anyway, your answers have been overridden by the fact that many of your company have even come here to confess these very words "I have been praying for 20 years and fasted for 40 years, I was a born again Christian but in the end God did not Answer. Therefore I Authoritatively say that there is no God!"

Your Mistake, Not ours!

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!

What does believing in God have to do with intelligence?

What is intelligent in trusting in something you cannot prove?

Be deceiving yourself. The truth is we have a wrong version of gospel in our heads main reason why people will easily declare there's no God. Cos u keep on giving them wrong impression just to lure them. My grandma is an elder and very devoted. She fasts effortlessly and pray almost every second. Alaye grandma died and my mom died exactly a Month after. If I've not used my head to understand what the true gospel is, I would have been forced to say there's no God.

@ the OP, both are effective but base on the seriousness attached. On the other hand, one may fast and do a light prayers due to the environment and decided to pray at night when it's convenient nd confidential.

See consolation. If you are not worldly and your major concern is the life after this life, then what is your daily midnight prayers all about - for God to take you into the afterlife quickly?

My sister, spend the time you are wasting on midnight prayers praying for "worldly things" to improve yourself - improve your health, mind and wealth. Learn new skills, get new certificates or degrees, exercise your body. In 5 years you will be much better than where you are today.
