Here at the house of prayer, we participate in something called the Global Bridegroom Fast. This is the first Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday of every month. We fast for 3 days for the Bridegroom! Jesus! Matt. 9:15 says that we will fast when He is not here. So we are fasting for more of Him and asking for His return! You can click here for more information!
So today was the first day of the fast. Its hard. We are voluntarily making ourselves weak, so that God can fill us! I so badly want to eat food. It’s crazy how much food has a hold on me. My stomach tells me what to do a lot of the time. But I don’t want anything to control me, except for Jesus Christ!
Lord, give us grace and strength to fast and pray! Fill us up with Your Holy Spirit, make us hungry for You and not for the things of this world. Let us only be satisfied with You! In Jesus’ name!
