Nothing is Impossible with God
Nothing is impossible with God. (Matthew 19:26; Mark 10:27; Luke 1:37). These are words of encouragement when we go through difficult times. And haven’t we all been there at one time or another in our walk with Christ? If you haven’t, keep living. But we must never forget what God has done for us and we must remember that what He has once done, He can do again and again. It is so easy to forget, but the Holy Ghost brings to our remembrance all things. John 14:26. In this and future episodes, I will share some personal experiences with you on how prayer and fasting thwarted attacks against myself, my family, friends and even people I did not know personally. Yes, I said “prayer AND fasting” because that is what I learned early in my walk with God from the very first year I truly committed my life to Him. The church I attended after I gave my life to the Lord, taught prayer with fasting. Let me stop here and give a caveat. What I am talking about is what we (my husband and I did as prayer warriors). We are not saying you have to follow our pattern of fasting but we encourage you to thoroughly research fasting so you do not do harm to yourself. This includes following and seeking appropriate medical advice.

Okay, moving on.

The Bible talks about fasting in the Old Testament and the New Testament. In general, when you think of fasting, you think about denying yourself of food and water or just food. Some people expand the definition of fasting broadly to include denial of things that bring personal enjoyment. In the New Testament, Jesus fasted for 40 days and nights without food but we believe he had some form of water. (Matthew 4:1-2; and Luke 4:1-2). He understood the importance of fasting from the moment he was driven into the desert and the Holy Spirit compelled Him to fast and continue in prayer. It was only after that wilderness experience that He returned and began His ministry which included preaching, teaching, performing healings and miracles and more. (Episodes 7, this series). In the Book of Esther (Old Testament) the Jewish people fasted on two separate occasions in conjunction with praying to God to spare them from annihilation by an evil man named Haman. Queen Esther was not in the first round of fasting. (Esther 4:1-3). However, when she was asked to go before King Ahasuerus and ask him to spare the lives of her people (something for which she could be put to death), she asked everyone to fast three days and nights. (Esther 4:16). This included her maids who were probably not Jewish. And, of course, you know the outcome, the Jewish people were delivered and their enemy, Haman, was destroyed. (Queen Esther Podcast, Episode 7). We will tell you how to access these podcasts at the end of this episode. But, suffice it to say for now that fasting is Biblical and provides sound reasons for implementing it as a spiritual warfare weapon to answered prayer.
