Fasting

6/5/10 From YahuShua HaMashiach, Our Lord and Savior
The Word of The Lord Spoken to Timothy
For a Sister in Christ, and For All Those Who Have Ears to Hear

This question was asked of The Lord, for a sister in Christ: Lord, should we fast on the behalf of others?

[The Lord answered] Have not My servants fasted in your presence?[1] Yet you have not discerned. For whatsoever one does with love, with compassion, with empathy, or with concern for their fellow man, is well and good in My eyes. Even to afflict one’s soul on the behalf of another, in My name, is righteousness. For this is true love.
Therefore fast if you are so moved, and do so according to your faith, that it may be strengthened. Yet do not take up a fast for the dead, forsaking The Promise. For this is contemptible in My sight and bears only bitter fruit. Neither shall you fast as a recompense for sin. For this is to deny The Holy Sacrifice, the forgiveness of sins. Therefore the one who fasts in remembrance of Me is wise, and the one who draws close to Me, placing Me above all else, will have peace. For they have chosen to forsake their flesh, that they might be filled with grace and satisfied with truth.


Thus that which I had spoken
In the wilderness is the very same
By which you shall live,[2] as you seek
To do the will of your Father in Heaven[3]...

Beloved children, I am enough!...

I am The Only Bread which satisfies,
The Very Manna which came down from Heaven,
The One alone in whom is eternal life...

The Only Way, The Only Truth, The Only Life...


Says The Lord.
