Day 6 of 21 Days of Fasting

He sent forth his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.
Psalm 107:20


Words are so powerful! Out of all that God created here on earth, we humans are the only creatures created after the image of God. God created the heavens and the earth and all that they contain with the power of His words! We have the power to heal and destroy with the words of our mouth. Watch and be careful of what we say during this time of fasting. Be attentive to the attitude you carry throughout the day. Is it edifying, encouraging? Does your attitude and spirit reflect what you have been praying and fasting for? If not, concentrate on changing your views. Continuously encourage yourself, allowing God to do what He desires in your life.

Be attentive to the words that people are speaking into your life. Without intention people can be careless with their words and cause pain and doubt. Surround yourself with Christians that are believing with you for a miracle. Even though non-Christians can be good friends, their understanding of spiritual things is just not inline with the Word of God. If it was, they would be serving the Lord. Non-Christian friends can serve many purposes, but during this time don't rely only on them for words of advice or encouragement. After all, if they do not believe in God how can they believe with you for restoration and healing! Continue to study and meditate on the scriptures and trust that your breakthrough is on its way!
God Bless
