What questions do you have about fasting? *Teachers that have been really helpful in my understanding of fasting (Kevin Ewing, Bishop Jason Nelson, Tiphani Montgomery)
My question is how to properly do the Daniel fast. Some say eat fruit and vegetables. But some say it’s just vegetables and water and lentils. I read the book of Daniel to see but maybe I missed something . Also is it actually 21 days or is that something that was made up. Because I would like to actually do that fast. But I want to do it correctly.
@@Sadechronicles1from the little that i know, Daniel has 2 fasts that were recorded. 10 days & 3 weeks(which is 21 days). As for what to eat i noticed Daniel abstained from meat, wine & pleasant food which i am still yet to understand. So what i once did was fasted & ate only fruits & vegetables with no added seasonings.
@Sadechronicles1 Tiphani said that if you study Daniel he wasnt on a fast, he just changed his diet because a biblical fast said substain from all food for a certain amount of time. Which makes sense.
Wow learned a few things: to release when the Holy Spirit prompts a cry (I had no idea so I try to stop it.)Also instead of saying I’m fasting say “I’ll eat later, or I’m not hungry” and to not listen to other pastors because it might not be a word for you but God may have a word for you.
Glad it was helpful. Just to clarify, you don't have to stop listening to other pastors, just be mindful and ask the Lord is that word for you in this season of your life.
I was just speaking to someone about I’ve never fasted before and I would like to start, but don’t know how to get started. So the fact that you posted this video in the right time, I can definitely go about fasting and praying.
Just some advice as you go forth; always consult with the Holy Spirit about fasting, as to what fast you should do how many days you should do it, and what should you fast about! Also, take some time before you start your fast to build your inner spirit man up in the most holiest faith by reading the Bible about fasting and there is also a very good book that the Lord led me to read during my first fast years ago it helped so much in addition to the Bible, it was called “Fasting,” by Apostle John Eckhardt very powerful MOG! I suggest these powerful tools to you to use as a beginner in fasting because it’s exactly what the Lord had me to do 12 years ago in my early walk with him when I knew nothing and these things helped me so much because it strengthened not only my spirit but my mind had to be strong 💪🏾 in preparation for fasting! God bless you 🙏🏾💜 go forth and stay encouraged! I pray this helped some too! 😊
I have fasted 3 Days Ester Fast, but only from 6-16 hours 😢. I could make it until 18 hours, I got sick just like that without any warning! The Devil is a liar!!!! I will try again soon by following these beautiful tips. Thanks 🙏🏾
Thank you for these great tips! I needed to know how to lead my fast with intention & your pointers helped me so much. God is using you 🫶🏽 please continue to make videos & talk about walking with God
I was sitting outside & while looking at the clouds ☁️ & thought I should fast especially before going back to work on Monday!! Then I see this video 🥰 well God is speaking
This is definitely God speaking to me & i need to listen. I have attempted TYOTB fast but i fell into temptation & now i am 😢.. thank you for the video.
Thank youuu🙏🏾❤I've been falling off in the Doers Community however these videos help me get back on track. I've found myself struggling with fasting lately since food is comfort for me I also have a little bit more sensitivity when it comes to hypoglycemia and blood pressure I agree with you especially with when you touched on the proper preparation beforehand that's where I typically lack in.
My pleasure! Definitely feel you on the food as comfort. May God strengthen us in that area! I'd definitely love to see you back in the doers community!
I'm going to uni next week and I'm so anxious about how I'll pull everything off financially i need to give it to God and remind myself He can provide me with all I need i really need to strengthen my relationship with God and haven't fasted that often before I'm still trying to understand the purpose of fasting your video helped me thank youu
I do intermediate fasting for up to 12 to sometimes 18 hours although that's not a spiritual fast. I can't do a full fast because of medical conditions so I can only do the partial fast during the day every once in awhile. So I guess I could try to not eat anything from 6:00 p.m. until 12:00. I have to have water because I take pills for chronic sickness. But at least God sees that I'm trying. I do want to do a spiritual fast. 🤔
On time for sure. Started a fast yesterday and was so distracted. I sat introspecting after work, and said wow Abba i wasted so much time when I could've been in my word. When I saw this notification, I looked up🙌🏽, Abba is definitely telling me to stick with it and do better today.
I’ve been having this heavy urge to fast but there’s something pulling me back from doing it and I know that I need to do it …and this video came at the right time ,literally because I don’t even know how to fast !🫂❤️ I thank God for your obedience ,because of it I now know how to navigate myself around fasting ❤️ this also serves as a sign and confirmation that I have to fast .🙇🏽♀️
Worship is a response to God's magnificence that involves the whole person, including their heart, soul, mind, and strength. It can be a gesture of respect or submission, such as bowing down or bending over, or it can be an attitude of homage that is expressed through other means. Worship is most commonly expressed through singing, thanksgiving, and praise to God. You can do this with or without music.
I've been treating ulcer for a while now like before gaining admission to the university, I am now in my final year and I'm still battling ulcer. I feel sad that I can't fast, most times, I stop my medication and fast and ignore my mum's voice always telling me to take my drugs. Recently I should fast to seek God not to prove that I'm a Christian or to please myself and say "oh I fasted!" Hearing you read Isaiah just reminded me that fasting isn't to be done to please myself but God. Thank you Kylia.❤ Love from Nigeria.
@@amarobinson3 stop eating too much spices and hot Chilis hot peppers, everything that triggers too much acid stop eating, ......eat bananas, sweetpotatoes and stop too much stress
Thank God for this video. Everything you have spoken about are things I have struggled with or questions about fasting properly. One thing I have a question about it in the Bible when it talks about fasting. Matthew 6 16-18, the part about putting oil on your head and washing your face, do you know if that is simply to not look down cast from hunger, or is the oil more significant?
When you do your fasts for let’s say 3 days from 6 am to 6 pm, what do you eat in the evenings? Do you eat just anything? or do you obtain from certain things? Thank you so much, this video has really helped me!
Thank you SO much for all the tips and for sharing personal experiences!!! This was so so helpful as I am new 🙏❤️💕 I will come back to this video often!
How can one manage praying for several intentions at the same time especially when they are drowning ones emotions...I know You said write down one or two intentions with biblical reference but what if it's more than 5 intentions?
It's going to be confusing for you to know what you are listening which is why I said narrow down to one or two but if you can't narrow down then look at what all of your intentions have in common and who you need God to be in your life
Thank you kylia Jackson, 2014 was the first time I seek to fast. I’m thankful for your words of inspiration on fasting. I now know things that I didn’t know before. ❤
Hi I have a question about Tip #7, I want to do a solo fast & I know that fasting is something personal & you should not try to show that you’re fasting or tell people. How do I solo fast when I have a roommate (my sister) at some point she would ask me why I’m not eating etc … do I tell her? I also don’t want to impose fasting on her as it is something I think you should also want to do out of personal will. I hope this doesn’t sound crazy but I have found myself relying on this as a fact/reason possibly excuse as to why I have not been able to fast since we started living together. Please help me. Do I have this all wrong? I am willing to be corrected. 💕
If you can wear headphones try that. Also just because you're around it, doesn't mean you have to entertain it. Pray over your workplace before you go in and when gossip comes up talking to you, try and change the subject.
I went to see the forge with a neighbor/friend and I brought me some fruit in the theater to eat 😅 she kept asking me was I going to get some theater food etc. I just told her I’m eating healthy for a while. After the movie she asked did I want to get a bite to eat, I said no I was fine. She went to get her some food and she asked was I sure I didnt want anything. I tried to hint to her that I was doing the daniel fast as she pulled over to eat her food. She asked again did I want some of her chicken tenders and I just ended up telling her I’m fasting and that I didnt want to say anything because your not supposed to brag about it and she was like oh yea etc. she ended up calling me the next day to apologize because she kept asking did I want food after I already said no. I appreciated her apology, I just felt bad that I told her I was fasting because its supposed to be done in secret. I had a similar issue with my sister she invited me to a 1)wine drinking party 2)a family reunion and called and told me of a 3)hot dog restaurant giving away free food. Because its my sister I told her off rip im not going to the party and I told her that I was fasting. But she continued to call and invite me places etc I almost got upset because I told her the first time. I do feel bad for telling them I was fasting but I pray God understands why I felt the need to tell them🥹❤️
Thank you for this, i have a question tho. May i ask? You mentioned we should not tell people we are fasting. How about when people ask , oh are you fasting? Why are you not eating? Oh should i get you something etc, is it okay to say, No I'm not fasting since you do not want them to know
I work 7p -7 a..can you give any suggestions on times for alarm and time to eat...I truly wanna do this I don't wanna fail..how do u think a certain scripture for something when there is so many
Try fasting on the weekends when you have more time to dedicate. Or wake up extra early to pray + study , pray on your way to work, pray on your lunch break, and pray on your way home from work. I google scriptures based on my emotion.
Thank you for this message it is very informative. I am amazed with the information you have provided. I feel better about fasting and taking action and pleasing God in the process. Peace love and blessings to you
Great question! Sitting in silence in general takes practice because we’re so used to having so much noise and distraction in our lives so it’s a great idea to start with small intervals like sitting for one minute then two minutes and three minutes and gradually increasing the time. You’ll learn to hear God’s the more that you read the word and spend time with him. There are some where I sit in silence and hear nothing but the point is is that I’m making room for God to speak. The more you do this, the more you will discern his voice. Also as you practice, keep a notebook and just write down what you think that you are hearing and begin to ask God for confirmation. Hope this helps!
Thanks for these tips. I do mess up telling people, but it’s only my mom, a strong woman of God and my friend because we’re both growing in our walk with Christ. I gotta get better at keeping it to myself.
My pleasure! Yeah it is a little harder to not tell family but when they ask me if I ate, I just say I'm not hungry right now or i'll eat a little later. That usually suffices.
Would you please tell me some scripture for job interview that i can pray with and yes pray for me i have been rejected 2 times but this time i am ready in spirit
The light of Christ just radiates from the inside out, it's so mesmerizing and inspiring ✝💖 it genuinely makes me look forward to the calling and purpose the Lord has for me
Sometimes you won’t get the exact answer you’re looking for because something else may be more of a priority in God’s sight. If nothing else, you should gain peace. God is always speaking though, we just have to be open to what he wants to say
@@kyliajackson If no peace comes, should I continue to fast every day until I get an answer and/or peace? Or fast again the next week for the same issue?
@@created2worshipGOD it’s hard to answer this because every person is different but me personally depending on what I’m dealing with I will fast until I get breakthrough. We can’t force the hand of God which is why I mentioned that peace is sometimes the response from fasting. Other answers may just tied up in times and seasons and you just have to trust God. He will not leave you without strength or peace though. When you feel like you don’t have either, worship through
