A Final Word

STEP 7: Expect Results
If you sincerely humble yourself before the Lord, repent, pray, and seek
God's face; if you consistently meditate on His Word, you will experience a
heightened awareness of His presence (John 14:21). The Lord will give you
fresh, new spiritual insights. Your confidence and faith in God will be
strengthened. You will feel mentally, spiritually, and physically refreshed. You
will see answers to your prayers.
A single fast, however, is not a spiritual cure-all. Just as we need fresh
infillings of the Holy Spirit daily, we also need new times of fasting before
God. A 24-hour fast each week has been greatly rewarding to many
Christians.
It takes time to build your spiritual fasting muscles. If you fail to make it
through your first fast, do not be discouraged. You may have tried to fast too
long the first time out, or your may need to strengthen your understanding
and resolve. As soon as possible, undertake another fast until you do
succeed. God will honor you for your faithfulness.
I encourage you to join me in fasting and prayer again and again until we
truly experience revival in our homes, our churches, our beloved nation, and
throughout the world.
