Fasting Wednesday

Wednesday's email is now here!!

Hey New Life!

You are doing so great with your fasting!!! I am so proud of all of you! Remember to continue to focus on God and His promises of breakthrough in your lives and those around you!

There is an incredible verse that most of us are aware of. I want to share with you right now:

“Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move. Nothing would be impossible.”

What a promise that is, isn’t it? How many times have we been told to have faith the size of a mustard seed? How many times have we been told that nothing is impossible for us with God?

Those are things to grab hold of during our troubles and problems that are around us. Those are words that comfort when we see loved ones sick of cancer and other life-threatening diseases or when we look at our finances and say how will this ever work. There has to be a catch! There’s always a catch right?

Well…yeah…I think there is, but check it out!!

This verse is Matthew 17:20. This verse was written right after the healing of the demon-possessed boy that the disciples could not heal but only Jesus could heal. I mentioned this verse in yesterday’s email. Jesus, after he says that nothing is impossible, after he says you can move a mountain with faith the size of a seed, says those words in Matthew 17:21 “this kind…won’t leave except by prayer and fasting.”

I believe that the impossible becoming possible is attached with the greater connection we make with God during a time of fasting and praying!! That’s why I am confident of breakthroughs happening on Sunday, January 18th when we pray for all the needs you and others bring that day!! We are placing seeds next to our mountains and in due time, the mountains will be moved out of our way!!

The key thing, my eyes were opened to today, was make sure we don’t dig those seeds back up after we plant them. For some of you, the breakthrough will be immediate!!! Others it will be a short wait, and some it will require a much longer period of time, but no matter the time period, let your seed stay in the ground next to that mountain - the breakthrough you need!

God follows through with his promises!! Genesis 8:22 says, “As long as the earth remains, there will be planting and harvest…”

Let your seed stay planted and you will see a harvest.

Paul understood the need to keep a seed planted when he said to the Galatians in his letter to them, “Don’t be misled… You will always harvest what you plant… So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.”

Keep fasting even if it’s hard. Keep praying even if you don’t feel God is listening. The seeds that are planted for your breakthrough or the loved ones around you will break out and do the impossible for you!!

It’s just a matter of time!! See you Sunday, January 18th!!!

Believing for your breakthrough!
Pastor David
