Day 20 Reconciliation Fasting

Nothing Can Hold You That You Don’t Hold On To

Today’s Scripture: Romans 8:26-28 (NIV)

²⁶In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express.

²⁷And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will.

²⁸And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

Today’s Scripture Message

Focus. Do not allow your mind to wander off placing time & effort on things that keep you back. Instead let your thoughts be engrossed with all that is purposed FOR you. The promises of His word which are always VICTORY. The solution to any circumstance you are facing…focus only on the aspect of YOUR internal moving force and get moving!!! Nothing outside of what pulls you closer to His purpose for you is worth holding on to. Release what is not for you, hold on tight to the Godly gifts you were given and do not compromise them. That which was granted you is yours forever, the quality of that gift depends on the care you give it. Choose life more abundantly!!!

Thought for the Day:

“Meditation brings wisdom; lack of mediation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what holds you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom.”- Buddah

Goal for the Day:

Find a quiet space and let your thoughts be only what you need to move you forward. Meditate.

(From Pastor Gregory Dickow’s – Fast From Wrong Thinking)

Today we're fasting from the thought that says: "I just can't break this habit (of anger, worry, addiction, etc.)." Many people think they are stuck with things the way they are.

Let's CHANGE IT TODAY:

1. Understand the nature of a habit. It starts with a thought, then a decision, an action, then a habit. Deal with the thought. (Proverbs 23:7)

2. Don't focus on trying to change the habit. Change the thoughts that are feeding it. And the habit WILL CHANGE.

3. Rid yourself of the mindset that you are under that habit’s control. You're above, not beneath! (Deut 28:13) You're in control.

4. Believe God's promise to supply all your needs. (Philippians 4:19) God's supply flushes out your dependence and need for anything else.

5. Embrace the power of attachment. Instead of trying to de-tach from the habit, attach to God's love, and promises. You will begin to see change.

6. Commit to the process. (Romans 12:2) It often takes 6 weeks to change a habit. We are now 3 weeks into our fast from wrong thinking. Stay with it every day. It's working.

THINK IT & SAY IT:

I am not bound to my past or former habits. I'm a new creature in Christ. The power of those habits has been broken. I feed myself thoughts of power. I am more than a conqueror and cannot be controlled by anything but the Word of God and the Holy Spirit, in Jesus' Name.

Happy 70th Day of the New Year!!!

Let Go, Let God, Enjoy Your Freedom & Move In Enlightenment!!!

Many Blessings!!!
