Today’s sermon in church was about “Fasting” by Chris Scott. The less popular “twin”- fasting.
Another blessing to share, which are extracts from his sermon.
Psalm 27: 5-6. For on the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; He will hide me in the secret place of His tent; He will lift me up on a rock. And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me,
God lifts us up above the issues we face to have the aerial view (His) to help us gain the correct perspective. He does not necessarily remove that which is around us or things we face. He also protects us in these challenges. Fasting is not to twist the arm of God.
“Make space and place to fast, to deepen your intimacy with Him”
- Fasting reveals what controls us
- Fasting realigns our dependance
- Fasting restores balance
- Fasting is spiritual feasting
My food is to do the will of the Father. Matt 4:4, Deut 8:3. | Where or what is my appetite for?
Everything to glorify the Father and become like His Son Jesus.
