21 Day Fast | Day 4
21 Day VICTORY Fast | DAY 4
From Brian Gibbs
January 7, 2021
Good morning, dear friends! Today is day four as we have entered a very special time of consecration and humility and we open the door to a deeper, more intimate and more powerful relationship with our Father!
Bren and I are blessed that you have chosen to participate in the VICTORY FAST by setting aside 21 days to pray, fast and draw near to God. Fasting is not just an exercise for super-spiritual people. It is actually supposed to a part of every believer’s personal and private spiritual life. Personally, we have found there is no better way to reset our spiritual compass and bring about change and discipline in every area of our lives than through fasting.
We pray that you will experience the presence and power of God in an extraordinary way as you commit yourself to Him over the next 21 days. May God continue to bless you and ignite your passion for Him as you seek Him first!
For these 21 days together, I will provide a daily biblical focus and some thoughts to encourage and strengthen you throughout the fast.
FASTING: EXAMINE YOURSELF
Day 4
Scripture Reading For Today:
Psalm 26:2
”Examine me, O LORD, and try me; Test my mind and my heart.”
Psalm 51:10
“Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.”
Fasting is a time where we stand presenting ourselves before the Lord with integrity and transparency asking Him to examine our hearts, our lives, motives and intentions. In 1 Corinthians 11, the apostle Paul tells us to make sure we “examine ourselves” before receiving the communion table of the Lord in the bread and the cup.
In Psalm 139, David says, “investigate my life”... It is so important that when we fast we examine ourselves and we invite the Holy Spirit with His purifying fire and cleansing grace to remove anything from our lives that is not pleasing unto the Lord. There can be no passivity, nor negotiation, for any level of sin.
“If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” — 1 John 1:9
As you fast, may you say to God, “investigate my heart” and “investigate my life” and make it clean.
Our desire is clean hands and a pure heart.
May the Holy Spirit strengthen you today.
Make it a great day and be blessed! Brian
