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.

I have been sitting here reading and just amazed at how much God has matured many of us to a better understanding. As I read threw comments I see where the enemy has attacked us to the point of giving up then I see where God reminds us of His promise. God is amazing keep strong every one

I'm trying to scott. Today a friend of mine said she saw my husband post a picture on FB. Then she said "Alli....you are soooooooooo much prettier than she is!" I thanked her. Funny thing is....she's not the only one that has said that. But then i think to myself, what if it is her personality that is attracting him to her. After i found out about the pic....i got so fed up. I didnt curse out God i just cried out to Him asking when will justice be served.....when will my husband see what he is doing is absolutely wrong and sinful......when will he come to his senses....when will he see the truth and the light? Sadly this is pushing me back....and even more sad i'm starting to think that maybe i should start seeing some one else....some one i've gotten close to before. I know i am wrong for thinking this and i feel heavily convicted about it but i'm just tired of thinking about how happy my husband is without me and with the other girl. I guess i just need some one to talk to. My co worker said that i should try the online thing because that is where she met her bf. Then she asked me something that kind of shook me.....she asked me if i am interested in both men and women or just men. I paused because for a while was sleeping with both. Now that she asked me that "those feelings" started coming up again. I dont want to revert back to who i was before i met my husband. My covering has left me and now i feel so vulnerable to where anybody's touch would feel good right now.

I just need Jesus right now. I need Him to become more real to me now than ever. I need Him to show Himself. My heart is so lost and broken right now. If you guys could please pray for me i would really appreciate it.

Alli I will pray for u.

Wow, it really does seem our enemy is on the attack right now and I mean a full assault. Im not just going off whats being said here alone. Its similar things Im hearing from everywhere.

My sons school called today and said he was absent even though my mom took him to school this morning. Come to find out his mom went and picked him up and by not having any contact with her, we don't know if she signed him out early or just picked him up after my mom took him.

Tylers mom just keeps doing things to keep everyone over here tensed up and the constant drama and stress is why I said what I did some post back about being done with it.

I figured the best course for me would just be to turn it all over to God and stop worrying or even dealing with it and to just cut ties all together.



Alli I believe in being honest and not sugar coating anything so Im not judging u at all and Im not gonna say anything except you already know what God says about men with men and women with women.

There is not much I can say either about you wanting to move on as I know exactly how you feel and Im wanting to do the same thing and have been talking to other ppl already and I wont lie that it is nice to talk to other girls and have compliments when you have been made to feel that there is something wrong with you.

However Im just not sure it is the right thing to do. Every time a girl starts wanting to get closer to me than just being friends, man I panic and start looking for exits. But do I want to move on? u better believe it.

The sad truth is the longer this has went on with my wife and the OM, my feelings have pretty much faded for her. I don't like seeing whats its doing to my son though however I just feel like my hands are tied right now because you cannot make someone want to be with you when they don't.



Alli it also strikes me about what you said to God because this past Weds night we read out of Habakkuk and that whole chapter starts out by a cry out to God asking him the same things you spoke to God.

I personally do not find anything wrong with telling God how you truly feel because he already knows. He knows the hairs on our heads and he knows all of our thoughts.



Our enemy knows our weaknesses and u better believe he is going to use those against us.

I just don't know right now and have tried posting very little recently and watching what I do post because I don't want to influence anyone here when Im so confused now myself.

Just feel like im at my wits end and ready for this trial to end.

Alli just tonight I told God I am angry that things haven't changed and some are getting worse. My wife is leaving state Wednesday and I am so worried she is going to take my girls with her even though she said she isn't I yelled to God saying I don't know what inwillmdo ifmi lose my girls to. Jacob is leaving his four boys behind as well and his wife has now started begging for him to come back. I have to give it to God but like I said I am angry I asked God if I deserve this treatment however I know my love for my wife is unconditional because God put that in me I have to hold on I can't give up

I must say you guys are very strong! My husband and I have separated but the separation was my decision. I feel like I am yelling at him to come to his senses jumping in front of him, waving my hands to show emotion, anything human like so I know that he's human but he's just standing there emotionless. It's so easy for them to not care to shut it all off and I want to do the same. I don't feel it's fair and I have called out to God so many times. I want him to be my husband but then I also feel like this will never happen. I want comfort from a man and have been tempted to seek other men's attention because they seem to care and understand...while my husband doesn't even seemed phased one bit. I have really thought about divorce but the last time he said he was hearing me and that things would be different. Things are still the same. I feel like I don't care at this point and just want a divorce to be done and over with him so I can finally be happy and find a new man that is truly Godly.

 

[scott123]

We have to change the way we do things, the yelling and pointing fingers has to stop that pushes our spouses away more. We then stand in Gods way when we do this, we need to take the battle into our prayer closet. His word says in 2nd Corinthians 10: 3-5 For though we walk in the flesh, we do not war according to the flesh, for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but divinely powerful for the destruction of fortresses. We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ. This is done in prayer and threw faith which we must have faith because His word also says about faith Hebrews 11:6 And without faith it is impossible to please God. We don't stand for our marriages because we want to, no our flesh is totally against our stand. We stand for our marriages be a use God hates divorce Malachi 2:16 we stand for our marriages because we are saying to the enemy God is stronger than you and what you are doing. We stand for our marriage because it is the will of God to heal, restore, and bring glory to His name. Think about how many unbelievers are watching and when your marriage is restored they will see the power of God. This stand is not for us it is for the glory of God and our spouses salvation. I to feel alone at times and think I could easily find someone new and move on. I don't want to go in front of my God on my final day and have to tell Him why I didn't stand because I doubted His plan and His power. I can't stop standing because I refuse to let the enemy fool me into thinking this situation is too big for God. I will stand and trust in my God because he is not like man that he should lie or son of man that He will change is mind Numbers 23:19

Hi Scott123,



Not doing it literally. I meant figuratively speaking. I feel like I am in some glass jar crying out and my husband doesn't care or notice.

 

[scott123]

Oh yea I get that. Its like HELLO I AM RIGHT HERE

 

[raven28690]

The only thing I can even think of adding to what Scott wrote is one thing to consider if the decision is made to move on.

What would you do if next week, next month, or next year you spouse returns?

Its something that needs to be considered because if you move on and get with someone else and later on that spouse returns and feelings are still there for them were the possibility exist of reconciling, then the new person your with is going to be hurt by your leaving to reconcile with your spouse.

There is no way in this world that I could bear to put anyone else through the turmoil that Im in so if I do meet someone else, Gonna make dang sure that the possibility of me reconciling is out of the question because who I may meet deserves a 100% chance and is not just filling an empty spot with me.
