Reflection to Ponder 7

Reflection to ponder 7

When faced with decision in your life do you fast and pray with humility?

The disciples of John asked why they had to fast, but Jesus’ disciples were not required to (Matthew 9:14).

Jesus answered, “How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them; then they will fast.

This was when Jesus Christ was with the disciple during his mission. But now, we are encourage to fast and pray.

Jesus Christ fast and prayed for forty days and forty nights Matthew 4:1-2

Moses fast and prayed for forty days and forty nights Exodus 34:28

Paul and Barnabas prayed and fast Acts 14:23

Isaiah prayed and fast Isaiah 58:6-7

A widow prayed and fast Luke 2:37,

When faced with decision in your life do you fast and pray with humility?

Thank you for listening.
