Romans 12:1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God- this is your true and proper worship.
It is the season of Lent and I am fasting and praying and for the first time ever and I am struggling. I hunger and thirst at the same time like never before. Now I am submerged in prayers and the word, but there’s a battle going on that is a distraction to my spirit. I cried out to God for I believe it was echoing from my spirit. And Lord reassured me not to worry I was being touched by the infirmity of the world. My spirit within is tracing(following) Jesus to the cross. Many are called and a few are chosen when fasting and praying in this season of Lent. Obedience, humility, selflessness and the love for others is what it takes to walk with and follow Jesus.
Fasting and praying, rejecting the nature of the flesh and giving the authority of it’s weakness over to the spirit. That the power and authority given to us through Jesus life death and resurrection shall come forth and take dominion.
I hunger and I thirst for His righteousness. Truth and righteousness is who God is! Standing in faith with prayer, the word and fasting will overcome the temptations and struggle.
