Fasting

[katjoe]

I'm really sorry to hear that you're going through such a difficult time. It's important to reach out for support, both spiritually and practically. Here are some general guidelines on fasting and prayer that might help:

1. **Fasting**: Fasting is a personal spiritual practice and can vary greatly. Some people choose to fast from food for a day, while others might fast from specific foods or drinks. It's important to consult with a healthcare professional before starting a fast, especially given your health concerns.

2. **Prayer**: Prayer can be done at any time and in any place. You might start with a simple prayer of gratitude or a request for strength. There's no set length for prayer; it's about what feels right for you. You could try setting aside a few minutes each morning and evening.

3. **Support**: Consider reaching out to a pastor or counselor at your church for guidance. They can offer support and help you navigate your feelings and spiritual journey.

4. **Mental Health**: It's crucial to address feelings of despair. Please consider speaking with a mental health professional. They can provide support and help you find ways to cope with your situation.

5. **Faith and Salvation**: Many Christians believe that faith in Jesus Christ is central to salvation. It's a personal journey, and it's okay to have doubts and questions. Talking to a spiritual leader can provide comfort and clarity.

Remember, you're not alone, and there are people who care about you and want to help. Please reach out to those around you for support.

Dear one, as far as fasting, ask the Holy Spirit to let you know when and how long that you should fast, as it is different with everyone. Let me say that it is not really fasting that will get your prayers answered; we do not need to twist God's arm to try to get something from Him. Everything that we need pertaining to life has already been taken care of by what Jesus Christ has already done on the cross. Let me suggest that you open your Bible and find every scripture that speaks of healing and read them aloud, let your husband hear them. God knows exactly what is going on; you are NOT alone, give this all over to Almighty God, He never meant for you to carry this on your own. And my personal belief is that yes you would go to hell if you took your own life. The Lord never said that this life would be easy, but He did say that He would never leave us. Dear one, Jesus loves, cares, and loves you more than you will ever know, trust in Him to give you the help that you need. God will NEVER fail you. Lord, we ask right now that You would let Your healing virtue flow through both their bodies and drive out every sickness. Fill her and her husband with Your peace and joy. Let faith arise in her to dare to believe for what man says is impossible, for we KNOW that ALL things are possible with God. Jesus, nothing is too difficult for You. Satan, we bind what you are trying to do to this couple in the all-powerful name of Jesus! There is healing in the name of Jesus! We praise You, Lord, we thank You for Your grace and Your mercy! We speak the blessings of the Lord over you both! In Jesus' Holy name, we ask, believe, and receive it, AMEN!

Thank you for giving us the privilege to pray on your behalf. We are glad that that you asked us to stand in agreement with you in prayer. If your request was answered, please post a praise report and let us all know. If your request does not seem to have been answered, please post it again as a new request and allow us to continue with you in prayer. We all hope that our prayers are answered in the way that we want. Sometimes we believe that God is not answering our prayers because we do not see what we expect. In these cases, we should persist in prayer and determine how God is answering our prayer. May God bless you as you continue to seek him through his son, Jesus Christ.
