By Prayer and Fasting


There is so much evil in the world!

Satan's demons walk among us.

Our government leaders on both sides of the spectrum using their power in wicked ways, the lost souls who know no hope being led into the slavery of unbelief, wicked liars spreading false words, those who use misery to their advantage, and so on and so forth!

These wicked wretches will stand before the judgement seat of Almighty God!

We have the sword of the Spirit, backed by the power of God.

Be humble, be on your knees.

Weep, fast, pray!

There is injustice because of sin.

There are some who are teaching violence and destruction, this is the way of Satan.

He causes chaos to cover his agenda.

Beware!

Weep, fast, pray!

The battle is won!

The victory is in Christ alone!


"Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the straps of the yoke, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke?  - Isaiah 58:6


So we fasted and implored our God for this, and he listened to our entreaty. - Ezra 8:23


"Yet even now," declares the LORD, "return to me with all your heart, with fasting, with weeping, and with mourning;  - Joel 2:12


1 And Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness

2 for forty days, being tempted by the devil. And he ate nothing during those days. And when they were ended, he was hungry. - Luke 4:1-2


While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, "Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." - Acts 13:2


14 And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.

15 And immediately all the crowd, when they saw him, were greatly amazed and ran up to him and greeted him.

16 And he asked them, "What are you arguing about with them?"

17 And someone from the crowd answered him, "Teacher, I brought my son to you, for he has a spirit that makes him mute.

18 And whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, and he foams and grinds his teeth and becomes rigid. So I asked your disciples to cast it out, and they were not able."

19 And he answered them, "O faithless generation, how long am I to be with you? How long am I to bear with you? Bring him to me."

20 And they brought the boy to him. And when the spirit saw him, immediately it convulsed the boy, and he fell on the ground and rolled about, foaming at the mouth.

21 And Jesus asked his father, "How long has this been happening to him?" And he said, "From childhood.

22 And it has often cast him into fire and into water, to destroy him. But if you can do anything, have compassion on us and help us."

23 And Jesus said to him, "'If you can'! All things are possible for one who believes."

24 Immediately the father of the child cried out and said, "I believe; help my unbelief!"

25 And when Jesus saw that a crowd came running together, he rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You mute and deaf spirit, I command you, come out of him and never enter him again."

26 And after crying out and convulsing him terribly, it came out, and the boy was like a corpse, so that most of them said, "He is dead."

27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him up, and he arose.

28 And when he had entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, "Why could we not cast it out?"

29 And he said to them, "This kind cannot be driven out by anything but prayer." - Mark 9:14-29
