Fast-A Three Day Journey

I strongly believe that if God has called one person to preach the Word, but yet that person says no or keeps putting it off, God will send someone else in that position. For example: one time at church I felt like I needed to pray for someone with hands on their backs, but I didn't. The push of God was so strong that I began to cry, but I was too scared. God kept saying, "Go do it. Don't be afraid." But I ignored Him. I turned around and saw that someone else was praying for this person. God gave up on me and decided to send someone else.

Well, about three months ago, I kept hearing God say, "Fast. Fast for three days, then move it up." But, of course, my flesh did not like this idea. I cried some nights because it was so strong. Fasting is not a 'must' in obtaining heaven, but it's recommended in getting closer to God. I believe God expects to; it shows Him how hungry we are for Him instead of this world. Well, I continued to put the fast off. I would say, "I'll start tomorrow." When the next day came, I said, "Eh, I'll start Saturday." This became a drag.

I never did it.

The other night at church, the pastor called on a woman to testify. She said, "God led me in to a five day fast. I can hear His voice so clear! My problems no longer matter to me, I'm Holy Ghost drunk and I don't care what the Devil says. This is amazing!"

God used her because I didn't want to be used.

Well, I'm sick of it! I'm tired of putting this off. This is my vow that I will fast for three days starting at 6:00AM Friday(tomorrow)morning. I will not eat nothing until Monday morning. This is my promise. I'm tempted right now to put it off until saturday, but I won't give in. I'm going to do this. I will post a testimony about this everyday until Monday. Then I will do a 'Final Day Fast Testimony' blog post. I'm ready to see why God is leading me in to this fast. I want to know Him more, hear more of His voice, more of His hand, walk with Him, be anointed, have a revelation, possibly be visited by an angel, or go into a trance just like Peter did. I want to be closer with Him. There's no telling what to expect because Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever. I will do this. I promise.

God, give me strength to go through this! Satan, get behind me! You won't win!

P.S please, right now, say a quick prayer for me that I stay strong in this fast and not get weak(spiritually)and give in to food. I will only be drinking water.

I love you, brother and sisters in the Lord.

God bless. (:
