Fasting Is A Weapon Of War by kpakpandoN(m): 6:14am On Oct 29, 2023 |
There was this man called Mordecai — Esther’s uncle. There was also Haman – an officer of the king, who hated Mordecai. Haman expected everybody to bow to him, but Mordecai wouldn’t bow to anybody except God. Haman decided to hang him and destroy his people completely. Haman got the king to sign the death warrant of all the Israelites. When Mordecai heard of the decree from the king, he went to Esther, who was then the queen, for help. Esther replied in Esther 4:1-17 that they should all fast, and then she would go and see the king. They fasted for just three days and things began to change from that point. By the time we got to Esther 5:1-6, Esther appeared before the king without being summoned and the first result of the fasting was that instead of the king asking her to be killed, he spared her life. Fasting can change death to life. The next thing that happened is that Esther found unusual favour before the king The king told Esther that though he is yet to know what she wants, but she should consider it granted already, even up to half of his kingdom. When you fast, you get more than you ask for. By the time we get to Esther 6, the king couldn’t sleep until he honoured Mordecai. A good deed that Mordecai did many years previously, which had been forgotten, made the king restless until it was repaid. When you take fasting seriously, all your past benefits that you have been denied can be brought forward and handed over to you. In Esther 7, the enemy of the entire nation became completely uprooted, and then in Esther 8, the house of Haman was given over to Esther. Proverbs 13:22 says that the wealth of the wicked is laid up for the just; do you think the wicked will let go of his wealth easily? You get it by fasting and praying. Wealth changes hands when you fast. Mordecai also got promoted because promotion comes from God (Psalm 75:6-7), and since fasting draws you closer to God, it leads to promotion. Finally, in Esther 8:3-17, the Jews were saved from destruction, and the Bible also says all the people around became Jews because they were afraid of the Jews. Fasting is a powerful weapon of warfare. Begin to use this weapon from today. Written by Pastor E.A. Adeboye. 46 Likes 9 Shares

Fasting is a weapon of starvation. God created food as a necessity to maintain your body, you are depriving your body...a perfect creation of God, that necessary requirement that God created for it in order to please the same God. How does that make sense Also, If God created man and the same God created food. And everything created by God is good. Tell me: why should man deprive himself of God's goodness (food) in order to please God ? It then follows that if deprivation of food is necessary to be closer to God, then either: Food is not good. Man is not good. Or God is not good. If any of the above is the case, then God did NOT create a good thing. God is imperfect. 8 Likes 3 Shares |

All these spiritual folks always thing in order to connect to God, you'll need to suffer Why can't I just wake up and say "Dear God! I need this and he does it?" Why must I pray for years, starve, cry, beg before he does this or that? Imagine my earthly father made me do all these before he gives me what I asked of him... How do you describe that kind of father? There's something wrong honestly, billions of brainwashed folks are just too shit scared to ask questions. What if all your religious books were inspired by the devil to subtly paint God bad? 8 Likes 3 Shares |

Fasting is an ingrideient for anyone who desires to be in charge spirtually and physically. If you desire your spirit man which is the real you to be alive, you must engage in spiritual exercises Just as you feed your flesh when you are hungry. You need to also feed the spirit man else you a free food for the devil and his agents . The Spirit man does not feed on burger, pizza, agege bread or chicken. The Spirit man feeds on fasting , praying, reading the Word of God, etc There are fastings that you engage in that even when you feel weak or tired to pray, your spirit man prays . That is because you have given it it's food. To be carnal is death. To be spiritual is life. Fasting that makes sense is one that is done in Holiness and righteousness, else you will only be engaging in weight loss program. 21 Likes 1 Share |

Outside of trying to lose weight or practice self control and discipline, starving your body of vital nourishment is a religious scam that will change nothing else in your reality. 6 Likes |

Yes o, fasting and prayer restrict our flesh, and helps us to do the impossibilities and unlock miracles. Remember when Jesus said that this cannot be achieved, except by fasting and prayer. 4 Likes 2 Shares |
