Peace and blessings, in today’s Sabbath study, we have a guest teacher from Preacher Head Ministries sharing with us Prayer and Fasting and the reasons for it. It is definitely a powerful tool to use to get closer to God, especially in a time of need. It is also very good tool to receive answers from God and to also tap into the power of God. In Matthew chapter 17, Jesus’ disciples attempted to heal a man and was unable.
17 Then Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I suffer you? bring him hither to me.
18 And Jesus rebuked the devil; and he departed out of him: and the child was cured from that very hour.
19 Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast him out?
Jesus was able to do it and His disciples later asked Jesus why they were not able to do so. Jesus answered:
20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.
21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.
Jesus reply was that they did not believe they could do it. Their faith was low, therefore it was impossible to do anything when your faith/belief is low. On top of this, things of that magnitude gets done by both prayer and fasting. This is what Pastor Steve will share in this Bible Study on fasting. I’m sure you will be edified, so please get your Bibles and follow along, taking notes in Jesus name.
This kind goes not out but by prayer and fasting!
