Breakthrough Fasting & Prayer

January 12, 2009 (Day Nine)

In 1971 I was nine years old. Richard Nixon was President of the United States. We heard that a new stock market called the Nasdaq opened up. The Harlem Globetrotter’s winning streak of 2,495 games ended to the New Jersey Reds. The Colts beat the Cowboys in the Superbowl, and The Carpenters released a song titled, “Rainy Days & Mondays.” If you missed those times you missed the world at half-speed.

In the song, “Rainy Days & Mondays,” there is a verse that states, “What I've got they used to call the blues; Nothin' is really wrong; Feelin' like I don't belong. Walkin' around; Some kind of lonely clown; Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.” Today you may be feeling the same sentiments on this second Monday of Breakthrough Fasting & Prayer. I want to encourage you to break the barrier of disconnection by embracing the call of the Spirit in your life.

Your invitation is found in Psalm 42:7, “Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls; all Your waves and billows have gone over me.” God is beckoning you today to be drawn into His heart. You have reached a rhythm in your fasting by now that is releasing a supernatural pull on your heart. Answer the call by connecting to the divine flow of God’s wisdom and fellowship offered to you through His Word and prayer.

You are an invited guest into the deepest part of God according to Hebrews 4:16, “Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” Today your need is to break the barrier of a hurried lifestyle and breakthrough into a deeper intimacy with God than you have ever known. Stop right now and breath in the Holy Spirit.

Genesis 2:7 gives us the original formula for your life’s substance, “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living being.” Everything you are becoming in God in found in His breath through you! Acts 17:28 makes this perfectly clear, “for in Him we live and move and have our being…”

Send me your testimony of deliverance and breakthrough. Email it to me at pastor@clfn.org. I can’t wait to hear what God has done for you. I am standing with you in faith today for every breakthrough you desire in God!

Numbers 6:24-26 “The LORD bless you and keep you; The LORD make His face shine upon you, and be gracious to you; The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace.”

Blessings & Peace,

PG
