Tips for success: 1. Have your prayer list ready - have a scripture book (write specific scripture that are on what you are praying for) - write 1-3 things you are seeking God for. 2. Spend time with God - Ask God for the grace to finish the fast well 3. Be prepared ahead of time - be wise and don’t stock up on sweets or go to restaurants 4. Avoid temptation - Don’t go out to restaurants or look through your kitchen
Yes! It was not a one time and done type of deal! Some prayers have been like that, but other topics I’ve had to go at it multiple times! In the end God has been faithful 😊
This is a powerful ministry! Teaching Gods children about the principals of fasting & praying is so important!!! God bless you & everyone who reads this.. We have power and might through our GOD. He will deliver us from ALL our problems. God is on our side so WE CAN NOT LOSE! The game is FIXED. Through fasting & prayer WE WIN!!!❤️
Hi Nelly, been fasting every Tuesday and Thursday since February - still no breakthrough in my job search. It can sometimes be very disheartening but I'm keeping the FAITH!!
Maybe try to do it for 3 days straight. I know I had a spiritual breakthrough and healing moment with the Lord when I fasted for 5 days in a row. It was hard, I also wasn't working at the time, and I don't know if I had been working if I would have been able to do it. Also good to note I wasn't asking for an outer miracle but an inner one. I hope this helps, sending you love and blessings on your journey🕊
remember power is not in fasting but in faith. fasting purpose is to lead to revelations. i suggest you research about prayers teaching especially the court room of God.all these info are on youtube. and the last thing is take it easy on yourself it is the father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
Nelly, months ago in January I found your channel and the video about praying for my godly husband. I left a hopeless comment on one of your shorts when I was giving up. I think God brought me the man (time will tell) because I sacrificed my desire to me married. Sure enough, I met this amazing Christian man. Now I’m back looking on your channel for help because I need breakthrough in a job/my business/finances. I’m a single mom. I left a life of comfort just to be free from emotional abuse now to be barely making ends meet. I have so many gifts and skills and talents but I cannot get unstuck. I’m exhausted all the time and I need a huge breakthrough. I’m considering a fast. Your videos make things so easy to understand even as someone like me who has grown up in the church. I really need to fast. I can’t keep living in this season of exhaustion and struggle.
Fasting is one of the best ways to make room for what God has for you, especially if you’re feeling stuck! Choose a fast you can stick with & don’t be afraid of starting with one day. Jesus promises to reward us openly for praying & fasting so go get your reward! God liberated you from that emotionally abuse place, He will provide for you 🤍 Also, CONGRATULATIONS on meeting an amazing Christian man 🤩🩷 that is such good news!
I pray more people discover you Nelly. You have such a gift of giving real examples backed by the Bible. May God bless you and grow your channel to touch more lives
Fasting should include Social Media, TV. and even socializing (to an extent.) Social Media alone is a dangerous addiction for many. We must take breaks and give up the desire to scroll and use that time with the Lord. Everything else you said was spot on & insightful!
I’m 41 and having been fasting and praying for a husband for years and at times I question if this is for me. Being honest it can really become disheartening.
The only thing I can add to all of this is cry tears, I listened to your video for the first time, how I came across it, God alone knows, but I listened to your testimony about dropping out of college and now you are a RN, I have so much to say, but all I can do at this time is cry, because God is good regardless of what we go through. Trust me I am praising him through the Chaos... Single Mum..... My name was not given to me by guess, but by God.. It's Anique which means Grace and favor..
Interestingly enough I recently found out that my version of the Bible has that scripture removed from Matthew 17-20… the niv, nlt, esv versions often have that removed 😮
You are so encouraging!!! Thank you. God bless you!............. and one thing I notice about you.... you are NOT against men, and I think that is good. You realize, as I do, the importance of all these men, especially decent men! ❤
I appreciate that! I’m glad you found my videos Catherine 🤗 and yes! Men and women are made in the image of God and I know the enemy wants us to hate each other but actually we would be so much more powerful if we worked together! God desires for men to rise up and it will bless everyone 🤍
Thanks for breaking down fasting for us. It can be super intimidating when we don’t know the steps. I love that you broke down all the steps and tips. I definitely want a Daniel Fast recipes video because it was so hard for me to get creative lol. So a video in some recipes and substitutions would be amazing!
Nelly, I thank God for giving you this platform-it's such a blessing. I love how you're sharing your fasting journey with us! To everyone listening, as you're inspired by Nelly's example and try these fasts she's mentioned-dry fasting, 6am-6pm fasting, or the Daniel Fast-remember to nurture your spirit in those times. Prioritize prayer, meditate on God's word, worship, and study the Bible. These practices will help you grow even closer to our heavenly Father.
Hi Nelly I am a new subscriber today. Thank you for bringing the subject of fasting which is very important. I think this is one element that I have failed to do properly to get the result of my prayer for so long. By the grace of God and with the help of Holy Spirit's leading I will start to do it again.
Woooohooo🎉…I love the testimony about your friend’s apartment..Thank You for this…I never read from the book of Acts, so thank you for the info on Cornelius and Peter, now I’m going to go read it for myself..Have a Blessed Day❤
Awesome video! Thank you! One time I was fasting and I took my kids to watch Cloudy with a chance of meatballs in the theaters! Girl that cartoon food had me soooo hungry!!! 😂
Smooches Nelly 💋, thank you so much for this video. A few days ago I was feeling like I needed to fast for some things in my life and then I saw your video. I'm not a fan of fasting because I never have great success, but your video has really helped me😊
You got this! There are certain things I’ve have to fast over multiple times and really HIT THE ROCK before I got breakthrough, don’t get discouraged ❤️🫶🏽
I recently discovered your channel and I’m so happy. Thankyou so much for pouring into us girls and teaching us about the goodness of God. I can feel the gentleness and Gods grace coming from your videos. Post more !!!!
Hi :) I absolutely love your channel. You’re doing a beautiful job and we’re clearly anointed for this. Ok so, my faith is deeply rooted and I’m a big believer in the biblical idea of fasting but I’ve personally never done it bc I have severe dysautonomia, which includes a rare blood pressure disorder and electrolyte disorder, and hypoglycemia (all due to a very serious condition I was born with) so sufficient fluids and eating every 3 hours is a must. I’ve spoken to my doctor (whose faith is also deeply rooted) and he said absolutely not (for me). Do you have any suggestions for those of us that cannot fast at all on any level?
Hey 💕 thank you for tuning it 🤗 and if you battle with this disorder and your physician says no, then in your situation I would abstain from meats, dairy, and candy (essentially the Daniel Fast that way you can still eat and drink) and in that time really focus and consecrate before God by reading the Bible voraciously and praying for extended period of time. I have done this and gotten amazing closeness with God 🙏🏽
@@sincerelynellymartin Thank you SO much! I truly appreciate your prompt and compassionate response. It means more than you know😔🙏🏻. I’ll definitely give this a go. Thank you so much and btw having had an enormous amount of surgeries throughout my life as a result of the complex conditions I was born with, I just want to thank you for dedicating your life to nursing as I have a deep appreciation for all that you do and the incredible amount of pressure you’re under. Nurses don’t get nearly as much recognition and appreciation as they should. So thank you. Have a blessed and beautiful day!🙏🏻😊💕
Hmm if you practice a sport ideally at a day you’re not doing that sport. (So let’s say you don’t do the sport on Wednesdays or Sundays, I would fast on one of those days).
Do you have a group where we can all come together, maybe on a monthly basis via zoom, to fast and pray together?! I’m looking for a support group as such to be sure that I hold myself accountable.
My skintone during my childhood was fair , as I grew up it became darker , tried everything, people mock me and laugh at me , I feel insecure can I recieve my childhood fair skintone through prayers, fasting and scripture? Please tell me.
Wow, this makes me so sad ☹️ When I was younger, I had a looser hair texture, as I grew older my hair became coarser and more kinky. People also made fun of me because of my hair, and I prayed to God that he would make my hair texture more loose. I also fasted. God did not make my hair looser, instead he led me to videos and people that taught me how to care for it. Today I am married to a man that LOVES my hair, he hates when I wear wigs or even synthetic braids, he just wants me to wear my natural hair, the same hair I used to get mocked for. And now that I’ve learned to care for my hair many other women with my hair ask me for advice on how to care for it. God made you how you are for a reason, and it is beautiful. Not everyone will recognize your beauty, but the RIGHT people WILL. If I were you, I would pray and fast to ask God to help you see yourself the way HE sees you 🙏🏽 become the best version of yourself, not the version that others want you to be ❤️.
@@sincerelynellymartin thank you that's very inspiring, but the thing is god made me with fair skintone but because of tanning it got dull, so can I restore it by asking to god ?
If it’s just dull skin then yes you can pray, and then watch videos on RU-vid on how to have “glowing” skin, at that point it’s just a matter of exfoliating properly to get rid of dead skin cells and using the right products like an antioxidant, a retinoid, and a good moisturizing face cream
So in the wilderness Jesus didn’t eat but he did drink. That’s why it says Matthew 4:2 NKJV And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. It said he was hungry. They didn’t say thirsty because he had water. In addition, the human body cannot survive more than a week without water. I hope this clarifies 😊
