Monday's Word~
Blessings.
Praise God Saints. To God be all the Glory!
Truly thankful that His Grace is keeping me! Hallelujah !
Everyone has a talent. Something that we are truly good at, and enjoy doing. My grandmother was a excellent cook, even though she may have used some ingredients that were not good for our bodies, but hey it taste delicious!
I always noticed her tenderizing her meats. She would actually be a little bit upset if the meat was tough, to tough to chew. She would tell us "you cant do anything with tough meat, you will chew and chew and chew for days and still nothing".
Well the Spirit reminded me about Fasting! Fasting is the Tenderizer for the Heart! Yes, it softens those hard spots so the word and the Lord Himself can have its way! Glory to God. True, prayer is a wonderful tool for us to use daily, thru out the day. But we must add more ingredients to our daily walk/living so the Lord will truly increase within us!
Check this out! 1 Cor 7:5 "Defraud ye not one the other, except it be with consent for a time, that ye may give yourselves to fasting and prayer; and come together again, that Satan tempt you not for your incontinency."
The more word planted in our hearts, how can the enemy trip us up? The purpose of fasting should be to take your eyes off the things of this world to focus completely on God. Fasting is a way to demonstrate to God, and to ourselves, that we are serious about our relationship with Him. Fasting helps us gain a new perspective and a renewed reliance upon God.
So who is ready to TENDERIZES their hearts???
