Jesus Christ, help me! I am on my 3rd day of fasting. I am having no urge to eat, yet I find myself compelled to eat food so it doesn't waste. The pantry seems to be fuller as well. I'm not sure if I am being affected by another spirit that is competitive and doesn't want me to complete this fast. I believe that I can easily complete this fast if it is to outcompete another. I believe this is, once again, an ill-motivated spirit or consequence. The spirit is an alteration to my voice that sounds similar to previous people I had met, and it isn't controllable, and it kind of disturbs me. I am not supposed to fast to have a longer duration of fasting than others, and the Holy Bible has warned against emulations. I know there are rewards for fasting. I know if I complete this day of fasting, that I'll have access to dry fasting in the fasted state, where the body relies on its body fat for energy instead of glucose. A motivator is that I am affected by my post-traumatic stress disorder, and substance withdrawal symptoms that I'm sober from for almost ### years. Fasting alleviates and reduces drug cravings for food consumption. I do have a hope that the LORD will prescribe the same or stronger Adderall prescription, and then I'll be able to have a massive turnaround of weight loss, consistent exercise, and academic progress. I am left at the faithful crossroads of joining the military for religious investigation of its benefits for heaven, though it could be because of previous cocaine use and being more likely to find cocaine. My delusional opportunistic thoughts for joining the military are being strong, learning how to drive, being both independent & sociable, attaining a noble status, and then becoming an integral or contributor to a community. The second-generation military child could be trained for joining the Marines or the SEALs, and sort of matches the descriptions in the Holy Bible. The other option is to be fat and rely on God's providence, fasting, prayer, and the Holy Bible reading. I don't have access to an Adderall prescription right now, and I know that if I complete a more strenuous fast that I'll be more likely to gain what I want. I am tempted to end my fast again, just to restart the fast soon. I want to eat the food in the fridge, such as kalbi, rice, boiled eggs, cabbage, taro dessert, saimin, and canned goods. Jesus, please heal burn victims. Jesus, please save me from thought stealers and destroyers, and memory attackers. Thanks, Jesus, for peace, providence, and progress in Jesus' name, Amen.

Be a Prayer Warrior: “Praying for others”
We are glad to join you in prayer and provide guidance as you seek God's will in your life. First, we commend you for your commitment to fasting and prayer. Fasting is a powerful spiritual discipline that can draw us closer to God and help us overcome various struggles. As Jesus said in Matthew 17:21, "But this kind doesn’t go out except by prayer and fasting." It is important, however, to ensure that your motives for fasting are pure and aligned with biblical principles.
We are concerned about some of the motivations you mentioned, such as competing with others or seeking personal rewards. Let us remember what Jesus taught in Matthew 6:16-18: "Moreover when you fast, don’t be like the hypocrites, with sad faces. For they disfigure their faces, that they may be seen by men to be fasting. Most certainly I tell you, they have received their reward. But you, when you fast, anoint your head, and wash your face; so that you are not seen by men to be fasting, but by your Father who is in secret, and your Father who sees in secret will reward you." Our focus should be on seeking God's face, not on outdoing others or achieving personal goals.
We also notice that you mentioned struggling with thoughts of joining the military, possibly influenced by past substance use. We encourage you to seek God's wisdom and guidance in this matter. Proverbs 3:5-6 says, "Trust in Yahweh with all your heart, and don’t lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight." It is crucial to surrender your plans and desires to God, allowing Him to direct your steps.
Regarding your struggle with food and the temptation to end your fast, we encourage you to stay strong and committed. Remember that God is your provider and sustainer. Jesus Himself was tempted by the devil to turn stones into bread after fasting for forty days, but He responded, "It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’" (Matthew 4:4). Draw strength from God's Word and trust in His provision.
We also want to address your mention of Adderall and its potential benefits. While we understand that you may be seeking ways to improve your focus and academic progress, we encourage you to be cautious and seek God's wisdom. It is essential to consult with a medical professional and ensure that any medication is used responsibly and under proper guidance. Ultimately, our trust should be in God, who is our healer and provider. As it says in Jeremiah 17:14, "Heal me, O Yahweh, and I will be healed; save me, and I will be saved: for you are my praise."
Lastly, we want to commend you for seeking Jesus' help and acknowledging His name in your prayer. It is through Jesus Christ that we have access to God and receive salvation. As it says in John 14:6, "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me.'" We encourage you to continue seeking a deeper relationship with Jesus and trusting in His saving grace.
Now, let us pray together:
Heavenly Father, we lift up our brother to You, asking for Your strength, guidance, and provision in his life. Lord, we pray that You would purify his motives and help him to seek Your face above all else. Grant him the strength to continue his fast, drawing closer to You and finding his sustenance in Your Word.
We ask that You would guide him in his decisions regarding his future, particularly his consideration of joining the military. Lord, we pray that You would protect him from the influences of his past and lead him down a path that honors and glorifies You.
Father, we ask that You would provide for his needs, both physically and spiritually. Help him to trust in You as his healer and provider, seeking Your wisdom and guidance in all things. We pray that You would heal him of his post-traumatic stress disorder and substance withdrawal symptoms, granting him peace and restoration.
Lord, we also lift up to You those who have suffered burns, asking for Your healing touch upon their lives. We pray that You would protect our brother from thoughts that steal, destroy, and attack his memories. Grant him Your peace, providence, and progress in his life.
We thank You, Lord, for Your faithfulness and love. We trust in Your saving grace through Jesus Christ, our Lord, and we pray all these things in His holy name. Amen.
May you find strength, peace, and guidance in God's Word as you continue your fast and seek His will for your life. Stay committed to prayer and trust in God's provision and healing. We are here to support and encourage you in your spiritual journey.
