Greetings to you ecoTrain community how are doing this morning sure you had a good night rest well is a cool and peaceful morning over here how about yours i believe good too
Fasting as a religious practice loving but tough experience that requires our faith and patient as a Christian fasting is recommended for us on problems that has lasted for a long time without solution the Holy Bible says that this type will not go away only by praying and fasting we go to God for solutions through our fasting and praying
We see fasting as spiritual food the Holy Bible also says that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds out of the month of the Lord you find out that doing this as spiritual exercise most christian we still finds it difficult to do but it has helped me in so many ways after doing it
Like i said fasting is a spiritual exercise that not only christains does it even the Muslim and i got to know that Hindus fast too you can see is not just ordinary to fast there are spiritual benefits attached to fasting and praying we don't fast alone we also pray alongside fasting
There is this inner peace and joy obtained during this time though most people finds it difficult to fast and pray just as i said earlier is not easy especially for the beginners but gradually they get used to it l can remember my younger age i like fasting and i always get results whenever i fast but lately i discover is no longer as usual
The only fasting i do comfortably now is the general one in my church done once in awhile we call it mercy prayer how it works we start it by 6am with praise and worship for one hour after that we will read psalm 51 and the next is to plead for mercy for every one hour we repeat the same thing till 6pm then we go back into praise and worship for another one hour and by then is already 7pm we stop and as soon as we start it in the morning no talking until the final stage
We fast with a lot of expectations from God of which God gives answers to many of our requests several times after this fasting people begin to testify of healing, restoration, deliverance, yokes are been broken and people free from all kinds of trouble
Fasting is good it gives positive results try it and you will like it
