WOW Day #7 already!  The most worthy way to end this fast is taking time out to focus on praising and thanking God for His Love, His Goodness, His Mercy,  and His Grace!  Hallelujah!      “I WANT TO SAY THANK YOU LORD FOR BEING SO GOOD TO ME”

Each scripture has been personalized just for you! Pray and Say each scripture in bold out loud!

 

 

Psalm 118:24  This is the day which the LORD hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.

  • This is the day that you have made Lord and I will rejoice and be glad in it!

Psalms 107:1 Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.

  • I will give thanks to You Lord, for You are good to me and  Your love will endure forever.

Psalm 92:1   It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High:  2  To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night, 3 Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound. 4  For thou, LORD, hast made me glad through thy work: I will triumph in the works of thy hands.

  • It is a good thing for me to give thanks to You Lord and to sing praise unto Your name for You are the Most High.  You show me Your love in the morning and Your faithfulness every night.  Lord you have made me happy and I will get the victory by the works of your hands.

Psalm 138:8  The LORD will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O LORD, endureth for ever: forsake not the works of thine own hands.

  • Thank you Lord for perfecting the things that concern me. 

John 11:40  Jesus saith unto her, Said I not unto thee, that, if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God?  41  Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up his eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.

  • Lord today I say “I believe” and I lift up my eyes right now and say Father I thank you that you have heard me!

1Co 15:57  But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

  • Thank you God, for giving me the victory in every area of my life through my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

1Th 5:18  In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

  • Today, God, I will give You thanks in every thing because this is your will for me in Christ Jesus.

Psalms 150:6  Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

  • Today, I have breath, therefore I will praise the Lord.

Have a great, praise filled day!  Praying for you that your commitment and obedience God will bless you according to I Cor. 2:9 Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Begin:  Monday, 1/7 @ 12:00am      End:  Monday, 1/14 @12:00am

Good morning. We’re off and running with the Committed Fast!  This is truly a new season for all!  God is doing a new thing is His people this year and look for more to be seen in 2019!  My question to you during this fast is what more will you do this year to draw closer to God?  Will you attend Bible study more, read the word more, pray more, Fast more, Love more — what is your more that you will do?

As we begin our 2019 seven (7) day Committed Fruit and Vegetable Fast I encourage you to commit to fast for all seven days.  I know you can do it!  Philippians 4:13 “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me”.   On this first day let’s focus on seeking God first in this new year.

I am so excited about this new year!

TODAY’S QUOTE:  “Commitment is doing the thing you said you were going to do long after the mood you said it in has left you.”
