Fasting for New Beginnings

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart, lean not on your own understandings , in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will direct your paths. (Prov 3:5,6 KJV) 

For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord.  Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a future and a hope. (Jeremiah 29:11)

The weather is changing and we're entering a new season.  The season of fall, and a new day of discovery in Christ.  Jesus loves you, and He has good plans for you.  Let us turn back to Him anew and trust Him with all our ways.  He will lead us on paths of righteousness of His Names sake.  Jesus is the Rock of our Salvation.

Fasting dates: August 26, August 31 for RSP, KI, Chuck Missler, my future, my family, my city, my country, etc.  God have mercy on America.

Come Away....

During worship, singing to Jesus, communing with Him, at church today He said: "Come away, come away, come away with Me My Love."

My Beloved spake, and said unto me, Rise up, my love, my fair one, and come away. (Song 2:10)   Arise, my love, my fair one, and come away. (Song 2:13b)  Come away, my beloved,.. (Song 8:14a)









I said, (in my heart), "What do you want from me Lord? His Spirit replies, "Your love. Tell of My mercy, grace, and forgiveness.." It's that simple.

Jesus constantly calls us: “Come to Me, all of you who are weary and loaded down with burdens, and I will give you rest. Place my yoke on you and learn from Me, because I am gentle and humble, and you will find rest for your souls, because my yoke is pleasant,  and My burden is light.” (Mt. 11:28-30 ISV)



I

wondered about the prophetic world events I'm following? He told me He will take of the world. I'm fasting from the news as well as food and this world. Just hanging with Jesus at home. How refreshing.

I wondered about going to my son's house. His Spirit assured me Dana would be fine. I felt a great sense of relief, just at the thought of leaving this world behind and communing with God. How I love that. Fasting adds great power to prayer. I'm praying for my son's health. (And others health too.) I expect miracles!

I knew that Jesus was calling me to a 3 day fast to read the Bible, (Luke, Acts) and talk to Him, prayer. How wonderful a time. I'm so glad the power is out so I'm not chasing the things of this world, now absorbed in its events. It must have been so much easier for the Prophets to spend time talking to God and seeking His wisdom than it is in this electrified, computerized, televised world we life in today. A world under the power of the Prince of the Air, (Satan) and the power of darkness.

I'm so happy to leave it all behind. May Jesus give me the strength for this 3 day fast. What do I do when I get hungry? Feed on the Word of God, read the (kj) Bible.

After all, some of the first Words Jesus spoke in the Gospels are: " Mankind does not live by bread (food) alone, but by every Word out of the mouth of God." Jesus also tells us that the Words He speaks are Spirit and they are Life. (John)

Checking In

Hi KI,
Just a check in to let you know I've been fasting and praying 1 day per week as agreed upon.  Thanks for the opportunity.  Prayer really helps.  Jesus delivered one woman from bad pain.  Praise be to God.

 "It's not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit says the Lord of Hosts." (Zech. 4:6b ESV)
 "I am the Lord All-Powerful. So don’t depend on your own power or strength, but on my Spirit."  (Zech. 4:6 CEV)

Another Successful Fast

hucrestcog.org

  Prayer is primary.  All glory to Jesus. I thank Him for answered prayer for those in desperate need. 

Did another successful 20 hour fast.  So, it is none of my personal ability to be enabled to fast, it is simply a gifting from the Holy Spirit.  As John the Baptist said, "A person can receive nothing unless it is given to them from above." (Jn. 3:27)  

 In the past He, Jesus, empowered me to do many long fasts with tremendous results and revelations.  How I miss those days.  After about a 3 day fast I would see things completely differently and be in a different mindset than usual, much closer to God.  I loved it.  The experience was almost an altered state of consciousness than what I normally experience in day to day life.  Yet, during this time in my life of shorter fasts, worship is the key to getting closer to God in the Spirit, seeing pictures of Spiritual things in my minds eye.  How I long for that communion with Jesus Spirit.

I have been very sick recently.  There has been a lot of spiritual warfare.  That must mean there is tremendous prayer results too.  I saw a 'high place,' 'stronghold' taken down right north of Mead High School when I prayed, fasted, and walked the area.  But the price was very high as my personal health took a hit.  But, praise be to God, Jesus is restoring me.  I cry out to Him constantly.  Thank all of you who have been praying for me.

Worship God

Jesus once told me, "Worship Me, that's where the power is."

So, I've come to the conclusion that at this time in my life rather than long fasts,  praise and worship will be the number one secret of coming into His presence.  

 Shout praises to the Lord!  All of you faithful people,  Praise God in his temple.  Praise him in heaven, his mighty fortress.  Praise our God! His deeds are wonderful, too marvelous to describe, praise our glorious Lord! Celebrate and worship. Praise God with songs on your lips...  

From Psalm 149, 150 CEV

aaronmacre@wordpress.com

Come! Let us worship and bow down;

let us kneel in the presence of the LORD, who made us.

For he is our God, and we are the people of his pasture

and the flock in his care.

If only you would listen to his voice today

Psalm 95:6,7 ISV

Oh Lord, let us, empower us to come before you in prayer and worship.  Empower us to bow down before you, El Shaddai, talk to us, let us listen to Your Voice....  In Jesus Name, Amen. 

Update

  There are great prayer needs and intense spiritual warfare during these fasts.  The last fast left me extremely ill for over a week.  The prayers were for a summer of souls in Spokane, and many more needs.  On a physical level I must have gotten dehydrated is the only reason I can figure that I got so sick.  Of course, we know that All things work together for the good for those who love the Lord and are called according to His purposes. (Rom. 8)  So, God even used the infirmity to give me the time and focus to fast track through 2 courses, Genesis.  Praise to His Name.

Thank God, I'm on my feet again.

It is tempting to stop fasting.  I can't do that though.  I've made a commitment to fast and prayer for people one day a week until end of October.  I trust God to give me the strength to endure.  It saddens me that I don't have the physical empowerment nor annointing from Jesus to undertake long fasts as I used to.  Long fasts used to put me into an altered state of mind, where the cares of this world go away, and I saw more through God's eyes.  To know Him is my hearts desires.   

For documentation, Jesus has kept me on track, fasting and prayer 1 to 2 days a week.  Thank-You Lord.

Yesterday I witnessed to a senior, disabled woman.  I knew that Jesus loved her and wanted her to be in heaven with Him someday (soon.)  So, I talked to her about Jesus.  She said she didn't believe and was a unitarian, and she was too old.  I told her Jesus loved her and wants her to believe in Him, and He will get her to heaven.  I did ask her to think about Jesus and receive Him.  She said ok.  Soul's are in the balance.  This life is the valley of decision.  I pray she come to salvation!  I'd love to see her in heaven.  Makes me cry when I consider the alternative. 

 God have mercy on America.  Make this a summer of souls for the Kingdom.
