3rd day of the 40 days 08.
Todays topic was called the great farce. As i was reading today's date from the 40 days 08 fasting book, I read about Daniel who fasted and received end-time revelations from God, Esther called for a national fast that helped to avert an empire. I thought when i was reading...this season is the fasting season and if we were to fast without the right heart, would God accept our fasting?
You know, sometimes during fasting somehow, the devil is luring me to sin against God... When we are fasting, we are not supposed to be angry, neither should we spout vulgarities and coarse languages. However, the devil seems to create cases which will make us angry and which makes us sin against GOD. I pray That the devil's plan will fail and that all of us will understand that the devil wants us to get further away from God and the devil will succumb to anything just to succeed. When we fast, it must be accompanied by heart change, character transformation. Only this kind of fasting pleases God =D
I am now praying that God can help me to control my anger and resist to all the temptations of the devil around me and that i will have a heart change and character transformation. Thank You all for reading my daily devotion and GOD BLESS YOU
