Call For Fasting 3

Hello every one as we start this fast I felt lead to share some verses on fasting.

Matthew 6: 16-18 And when you fast, do not look gloomy like the hypocrites, for they disfigure their faces that their fasting may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face, that your fasting may not be seen by others but by your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

Isiah 58:6 “Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke?

Be strong during this fast, the enemy knows how powerful fasting is and will try to stop you by putting thoughts in your head of reasons to stop. Surround yourself in Gods presents with music and reading His word. Speak to God continuously He will answer. There is so much power in fasting it will change you God will give you an encounter with Him. Seek His answers and be sure you pray for others not just your self.

Job 42:10 - And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before.

AMEN allibear and yet another breakthrough. Yes praise and glory to a risen savior. The God of yesterday is the same God today. Still working awesome miracles.

You can also look at your glass as half full instead of half empty. By your husband stuttering to either say wife or your name, he could have just said your name with no hesitation at all so yea there is something going on inside him. The jealous glare was a giveaway as well.



Speaking of signs, I saw one earlier tonight that Im still trying to figure out what God is trying to show/tell me.

Was talking to my mom on the phone and while outside looking up at the stars, I saw a star go extremely bright blueish white (talking spot light bright here) and then go dim. At first I thought it was a airplane's landing lights however I noticed it never moved and I continued staring in that direction for 5 minutes out of curiosity.

Told God wasn't sure what it was for or why I saw it, but I thanked him and praised him for his presence and the sign.

The brightest star is always the star that people follow to find home..... ;-)

 

[raven28690]

Good point and so true allibear. I didn't even look at it that way.

Just took me by surprise as I have never saw a star shine the way this one did. It was 100 times brighter than the North star has ever thought of shining. Plus I have never saw one put out a beam of light the way this one did and the color of light it put off. Was no airplane and certainly not a satellite.



I know it was from God seeing as how Im a little blind when it comes to God showing me things and then wondering if they are truly from God. God knows what gets my attention is the things that can only be explained as being from him period.

Amen Alli God is moving, most importantly we need to keep our faith strong even when things look impossible. God is real and will fight for us we just need to stand strong in His promise

 

[allibear86]

Raven, yes God will get your attention somehow when He is trying to tell/show you something. So keep your eyes open.



Scott, thank you. Yes we need to keep our faith up at all times. God is always here for us no matter what. I just continue to humble myself toward the Lord.

 

[Mariposa101]

Praise the Lord for your breakthroughs!

I pray that God continues to work wonders on your situations, that he brings you more signs & visions to lead you, and blesses you with the ability to discern them. I pray that the Holy Spirit whispers in the ears of our spouses, shatters all evil interference, and convicts them. And most of all, I pray for our Almighty Lord's miraculous hand to bring justice and restoration to everyone... I hope to hear some amazing testimonies soon. My heart will leap for joy for you.



As for me, things just seem to be getting worse lately.



I found out about some "romantic" gestures my husband has been doing for the other woman. He has been trying to convince her that he will take care of her, support her, and be a father figure for her three kids. The more I hear or find out about their scandalous affair, the more it makes me me sick. Honestly, it makes me very jealous; I feel replaced and so hurt. I feel like his attention and desires are now completely focused on her. I feel like he's completely moved past me at this point, that I don't cross his mind, he doesn't want anything to do with me anymore, and he is entirely consumed & obsessed with her. After only being separated from me for 3 months, he is already trying to create a new life with the other woman and her children.



Like I mentioned before, I have an urge to just give up and move on with my life. I'm so exhausted. Holding on and waiting for something to happen is draining me...

On top of this, life in general has become more stressful & hectic, and I am running thin on energy these days.



Reconciliation just seems more and more impossible, especially when we don't talk at all and he is revolving his life around the other woman. I haven't heard from him at all in a month. I feel forgotten. I feel like I don't exist. And, I haven't reached out to my husband at all, because I thought I was supposed to "be still and wait." But, days go on and the situation gets worse and he distances himself farther and farther away from me.



Maybe I'm allowing this to happen, because while I do still pray, I don't pray as fervently or as often. My heart & my spirit are so weak these days.

I don't know what to do anymore. I could really use some prayers.

Mariposa I am so sorry to hear that. Things were like that for me last year. I never really heard from him and when we did talk it was only for a few minutes. He never shared anything with me and never let me in on what was going on with him. But God suddenly turned everything around to where he started reaching out to me more. We talk more. He lets me in more. He confides in me a little more each time. It took allot of prayer. ALLOT. But God turned things around. Satan is putting all these lies in your husbands heart and mind making him think that he wants to move on with this woman. But satan is already defeated and he knows it. I'm sure your husband thinks about you but every time he does, satan works his little magic and fills your husband with thoughts about the other woman instead. Sin is only for a season and then God takes over. God is working even when its hardest to see it. Keep praying. Ask for the strength to keep standing. Ask that God fill you with His strength and faith. There are many times where i was where you are last year. I've been standing for almost 9 months now. Its hard but i must do it because i love my husband deeply and i dont want to lose him to the lies and deceit that satan has worked inside of him. I am praying for you and your husband. Dont give up. Pray, even when you dont feel like it and dont have the faith, just pray. Jesus is right there with you right now. He is holding out his and to you. Let Him carry you until you have the strength to stand again. We all miss and love our spouses very much and God knows that. He is working on them everyday. He never stops to take a break. He never says "ok i'll work on that later, I'm too busy with other things already". He is working all the time on everything and on everyone.

I am starting another 3 day fast tomorrow. If you guys want to join in, that would be great. Either way, God is working. He loves us and He will not leave us broken.

 

[Mariposa101]

Thank you, Allibear.

Hearing that you know what I am going through and things got better for you gives me new hope. I am praying for a "suddenly" miracle.



I need God's help with my faith. I'm struggling.

I will join you on the 3-day fast. Fasting is when my spirit feels renewed.

 

[allibear86]

Amen. God is working everything out for us

I planned on doing an absolute fast, but I almost face-planted at my desk this morning. I've lost way to much weight from fasting already (and stress) and have had some medical problems... Add to that lack of sleep and I just couldn't do it. I work 10 hours today, and I could barely make it through the first hour. I'm disappointed with myself that my body & spirit are so weak.



I pray that my liquid fast is still favorable to God, even though it was a change of plans. I'm praying for a revelation or a miraculous breakthrough.
