today is day one of my fasting. during my fast i will be doing several different things. first off i have decided to wake up before sunrise and start my day with intensive prayer immediately followed by a cleansing of my mind. i have resolved to cleanse my mind by purging it of any doubts or fears for the day and give up my worries to God so i can be more open. i have also decided to spend much more time in solitude and silence so i can be more receptive and less distracted, and hopefully hear Gods voice much more clearly. and the lastly i have decided to abstain from any food and juice. this fast is going to be strictly water and herbal supplements, like green tea and coffee. i hope to come out of this with a more sound state of mind and a deeper relationship with my maker, and hopefully some answers for the future.
day 1
today has been good so far, i woke up, showered, and started my devotions. it was amazing, God flooded me with scripture that embraced my mind and revealed to me the condition of my heart. i have decided that i need to embrace and have a deeper understanding of Ephesians 4:29 Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen.
with that being said i need prayers that i can be uplifting to others and hold to this.
i have also decided to make psalm 13 and psalm 130 my prayers for the durataion of this fast.
physically i am alright, my body is just starting to go into detox so i am battling feelings of nausea but i am not overly hungry, my only hunger is for God. please uplift me in your prayers and God bless.
Praying for you bro.
