You’d think that I’m speaking about some kind of intoxication like alcohol or a drug high. I am speaking about a spiritual high. Now that fasting season has come to a close and I am able to eat, my flesh feels heavy and sluggish when before I felt like I was flying. The best way to describe the feeling is my feet was not touching the ground. Clarity of mind, body and spirit came over me like being in oneness with the Lord. The fears, doubt and hopelessness that once incapacitated me had been lifted.
The enemy in me was me. I found out throughout my praying and fasting that food is a weight to the flesh and a obstacle to the spirit. The body needs food for nourishment and without it the body would die; like water, fluid, it is a necessity for us. Food is the bodies fuel for energy and drink for hydration. We can’t fool ourself to believe other wise, God created us that way from the beginning of time, Genenis 2:16 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, of every tree of the garden you may eat freely. I believe fasting and praying take us in a different realm, being in the world but not of it. You get connected to a higher consciousness, tapping into that oneness with the Lord. It’s a sacrifice and discipline of the flesh. Matthew 17:21 Jesus healed the boy that way possessed by demons his disciples couldn’t. He said, “howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.” (KJV)
What’s going on in the world today needs an spiritual intervention that can only be attained through fasting and prayers. When the earth is some how being disrupted by the atmosphere is doesn’t affect humanity as much as when it comes from it’s inner core or both. It takes a century for both to begin to affect us humanity and that’s what’s happening today. There’s a vibration we all feel in our mind, body and soul when it concerns the earth core and an never ending echo of the selient sound of change, evolution taking place. The sound is so loud that it effect the mind mentally.
Fasting and praying is a weapon also against the enemy.
