Psalm 139:23-24 “Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts; And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And lead me in the everlasting way.” Many of us are discovering when we fast and pray, God does what the Psalmist described above. When we break our… Read More »

Five Week Challenge: Day 10
“Prayer ushers us into the Holy of Holies.” Richard Foster Let that sink in for a moment. The place where God resides…His throne room…His presence.

Five Week Challenge: Day 6
God has a wonderful way of surprising us when we fast. He reveals things to us that we didn’t expect. He changes us. He purifies our motives. One man’s story illustrates this truth: “A certain man began fasting when his runaway daughter had not called home for days. He later realized that, at first, he… Read More »
Five Week Challenge: Day 5
THEY FASTED On Sinai’s mount, with radiant face, To intercede for heaven’s grace Upon a stubborn, wayward rece, He fasted.
