Welcome

Welcome everyone,
God has laid it upon my heart to dive into Him during this Awake21 season and to share the revelations He gives me with, well, whoever cares to read this! As has been our custom, our family has participated in some level with the Awake 21 Fasting season for the last three years. This will be our fourth year. Each year, the Holy Spirit speaks louder and clearer, because I believe my desire and ears is sharper. I know that God is always there and is there for us all, but through Prayer and Fasting (Matt. 17:21) is just how some things have to be done.
As with last year, I have surrendered to lead a fasting group at our church, Celebration Church. This year, we are truly blessed to be able to have Pastor Stovall's book "Awakening...A New Approach to Faith, Fasting, and Spiritual Freedom" to use as a guide for this amazing season. The 21 day devotional built in will be a great way to keep on track during this time. Looking forward to unpacking these scriptures, writings, prayers and times of reading.
Yesterday, we looked at the difference between Old Testament and New Testament views of fasting. Because we are new testament believers, we must understand that Jesus paid the ultimate price for us on the cross and we no longer need to fast and sacrafice for the forgiveness of our sins. We can have the freedom to fast and pray in advance of our problems and trials. Aligning ourselves with the Savior and surrendering to His will and "fanning into flames the passions within us"! Then, in our reading of Psalm 1-2, we see God's calling us to walk with Him! We are also called to remain rooted and planted! As we begin this season....let's trust that we will draw closer to HIM, listen to Him and yield to Him! Praying that our passion will increase and reignited over the next 21 days.
Are you along for the ride? Let me know your thoughts, questions, and prayer requests!
In Service to Him,
Regina
