PRAYER AND FASTING.

“And he said unto them, this kind can come forth by nothing, but by prayer and fasting.”
Mark 9:29
Main Text: Main Text: Isaiah 58:3-7

Jesus emphasized on prayer and fasting towards miracles, signs and wonder especially to those who desire such manifestations of God. You will need to obey this rule and not just talk about it. He expects his followers to exercise themselves through faith towards the realization of many great things. Beloved, except some will tell you lies, if you won’t pray earnestly with fasting and faith in the word of God, there are so many benefits in the kingdom that will elude you. Therefore, laziness in the things of the spirit is one enemy you must conquer as fast as possible.

There’s no magic in God’s kingdom. You must pay the required price to harvest the miraculous. Your faith also must be in place to pray and fast unto God for several great things that must happen to you for good. The refusal of many to seek after God as required of us in the above text is the reason you see them going to seek help from lesser gods and demons.

Don’t desire quickies, the devil is all out to cheaply lure many into false miracles and in turn afflict them with great problems in life. God will make you rich without adding any sorrow. He will heal you without any form of ritual. You will carry your babies without eating evil sacrifices. Don’t allow the devil make you a foothold in life. Call on God in spirit and in truth, wait patiently for Him and He will attend to your needs. May you not be deceived into false miracles by the enemies in the name of Jesus in this year 2023. A lot of churches today are staging fake miracles to deceive the innocent. Be careful, not all churches are the true body of Christ, some fight for their belly and don’t be a prey.

Prayer:

I receive power to pray, I am blessed in all ways. No scheme of the devil will succeed over my heart desires in Jesus’ mighty name

Further reading:

Joel 2:12 “Even now,” declares the LORD, “return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.”

Matthew 6:16-18 “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.”
