Fast

In the New Testament, Jesus says, "When you fast..." Notice, it's not, "if you fast." No, there is lots of fasting throughout the Bible. And really, it's one of the ways God communicates with us. You see, when you're fasting, you're giving up either all food, or partial food, but either way, you are sacrificing. And your mind and your spirit are more open to hearing His voice. Some of God's most devout children mention that they never hear God clearer than when fasting.

My church has asked that those of us that will, will be fasting for three days for a four year old in our church. She's had 6 strokes and bleeding to the brain. Doctors say that it is already miraculous that she's walking and talking. She's in and out of the hospital often, and has seen lots of specialists. She has incredible faith for that young of a child, and told the doctor in Dallas last week that she's a princess. He thought she meant a Disney princess, but she corrected him and said no, she's a princess in Jesus' family.
Thank You, Lord, in advance for completely healing this child. We stand on Your Word because Your Word is truth and You cannot lie. "By the stripes of Jesus, we WERE healed." and "They shall lay hands on the sick and they SHALL recover."
Thank You, thank You Lord.
