Fasting can be described as abstaining from food, or some types of food, especially as an act of religious observance. Fasting is an area where you would need to develop discipline and controlled to be accurate and effective. Your mind has to be spiritually conditioned to conduct an effective fast. You must pray when fasting. They both work hand and hand. (Matthew 6:16) – “When you go without food so you can pray better, do not be as those who pretend to be someone they are not. They make themselves look sad so people will see they are going without food. For sure, I tell you, they have all the reward they are going to get.” (NLV) Jesus fasted for forty days and forty nights. This brings Him into a place that when He is weak that’s when He is strong. The outer appearance shouldn’t resemble the inner appearance. The evil one observed the outer physical appearance of Jesus, which resembled hunger, but this was not a sign that the spiritual man was weak. While the adversary/devil temp...

Isn’t it very interesting that we were not given the spirit of fear, however, we still insist in adopting this character in our life. If reality shows his presence, then we will understand that we all were born with a sound mind, with no fear insight. Where did this thing call fear come from, and why is it lingering in our mind so much? Fear is only a fake emotion that appeared to be real. Look at this. A young baby comes out from his/her mother’s womb and signals that he or she in okay by making a crying loud noise. This pattern continued whenever a need is presence. Then as he or she begins to grow, they crawl and crawl on the floor with no fear at all. Then they try to stand up and walk, even after many times of falling they still try. Looking at this picture, where is the fear that we are trying to hold on to so badly came from, and how could we get read of it? The unpleasant feeling of anxiety or apprehension caused by the presence or anticipation of danger was not in your...

Getting saved is not as default and confused as many may paint it to be. In fact, getting saved is a very good thing which changes your life to somebody with good value and integrity. Look at it in this way, you are saved from the negativity and all the bad things that this world has. You are saved from going some place I believe you don’t want to go, hell. But the main meaning for saved is living a Christian life style. This life style symbolically represents how Jesus would life on an everyday bases. According to 1 John 5:11-12, the Bible says: “God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. Let me sum this up for you, your eternal destination is all contingent on one thing, whether or not you have the Son of God. Not whether or not you have religion or Christianity, but whether you have Jesus So how do you get Jesus? God’s pretty clear about that. He says, for example, in John 3:3...

Every human contains a triplex in its nature, the Body, the Soul and the Spirit. The body, or the outer part of a human is what been used to demonstrate the actions of what’s going on inside of the body. In other words, the body is the part of the human that cover the real source of what life is all about. In fact, everything in this world has a body, a vehicle has a body, a building has a body, writing or reading has a body, from music to even liquid has a body. So as we see it, not only humans but objects and things has a body also. But to be spiritual will take more than just the body; because the body has no connection that links towards God. Then there is the soul, not everything has a soul. The soul is placed above, and is independent of all infirmities of the body. For example, a sick person showing signs of weakness is due to the hindrances that interpose themselves between his soul and his body. Concerning the soul, after its separation from the body, will continue to pr...

Whenever a person is praying for a particular thing or engaging in spiritual warfare, these attributes must be taken into consideration. Single minded is a must; it is the master key for prayer. In Matthew 6:24 the scripture said “No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon”.(KJV) Your mind must be totality on one thing, which is God. Many times when we pray, we tend to focus on the negative that is happening in your life at that particular time, which will bring a hindrance in your pray. As I have said before, sometimes you need to prayer before you pray. This will give you a single mind to conduce your praying. If God is to answer you prayer He wants all of you and not to share you with another person or object or things. In James 3:11, the scripture said, “Do a fountain send forth at the same place sweet water and bitter water or yield salt water and fresh w...

1: Expectation 2: Listen 3: Action. When it comes to pray and getting result, your expectation is important. Do not expect anything natural from the spirit, or anything spiritual from the natural. Each one is different from each other. The natural things are the evidence of what occurred during the spiritual encounter. If you master this concept, you are on your way to seeing result. Prayer has been called old fashion and out dated, but to the one who has experience the wonderful result of seeing it’s worked in their life, it’s a working ability that changes lives in a dramatic way when it is use correctly. The first stage to experience result is your EXPECTATION . Expectation is the combination of faith and believes. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen (Hebrews 11:1 KJV). When you kneel down to pray, you must first have faith in what you believe will occur when you pray. Pray is li...
