1 Corinthians 10:31
King James Version
31 Whether therefore ye eat,
or drink, or whatsoever ye do,
do all to the glory of God.
Ever tried fasting?
How did you feel as you went through it?
What kind of fast did you have?
Did something unusual occur?
How long did you fast?
Well, here's my experience so far.
Not realizing it was even a fast I took on.
I started this detox program, from a doc found on a YouTube channel.
Curious thing.
He said not to have breakfast.
Only lunch and dinner.
Two meals a day.
That means I don't get to eat at least 15-16 hours from last night's dinner, to next day's lunch.
And at least a seven-hour gap from that lunch, to dinner.
I gave it a try, and I'm on it for the 7th day today.
That gives your body time to "repair" itself.
For the cells to right themselves.
To get better digestion.
To stabilize blood sugar.
To eat healthier.
To cleanse.
To detox.
The effects?
After 7 days, I feel so much better,
Clearer, lighter, tummy fat dissipating.
Of course, on the first day, I got a mild headache.
That's because no more coffee, no usual junk, nothing.
Eating more leafy vegetables now.
Salads, and such.
Just two normal meals a day.
Water in between.
The doc even says you can eat a hamburger.
Oh, that I like!
So, we had one for dinner last night.
Another effect from the fast, so far?
GOD gifted me with five dreams this morning.
Very telling, prophetic dreams.
Perhaps, an expansion of the work I do.
I have a simple writing ministry.
Wherein I pray to JESUS for whatever message He wants to give.
And the HOLY SPIRIT leads me to Scripture, to find the appropriate verses.
From which, we "weave" an article.
Thus, the many blogs, and posts.
I had no idea I had the discipline for this type of fast.
But the moment I got on that doc's channel, it was the sensible thing to do.
Less obsession with food.
More time for GOD, and you.
It also coincided with the death and resurrection of CHRIST this week.
How fitting to focus less on self, and more on JESUS.
Knowing GOD, it was by His "design".
That I may serve Him better.
That I may serve you better, through clearer thinking.
That I may care for the temple of the HOLY SPIRIT better.
Will do this for life.
It won't just be a 7-day fast.
It's become a spiritual exercise now.
That GOD may teach me how to eat.
What to eat.
Even sparingly.
And teach others how.
Starting with self first.
That I may know how it works.
I'm so excited at the knowledge GOD gives me.
So thrilled at all we can do!
ALL for His GLORY!
Colossians 3:17
King James Version
17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed,
do all in the name of the Lord Jesus,
giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
But all that's only because GOD made me born again first.
It's really wonderful walking with SPIRIT.
We focus on GOD more, and less on self.
We'd been prepped to have breakfast.
It's healthier for me not having one.
I don't feel faint.
I don't feel faint-hearted.
JESUS gave me the focus.
