What did you do during the fast? – Pastor Guillermo Jiménez

WHAT DID YOU DO DURING THE FAST?

1. They Fasted.
2. Separation from the world. We must remove all the things that get in the way of our fasting: TV, movies, games or information that contaminates our mind.
3.They confessed their sins. Let God show you those areas that aren’t pleasant to Him, ask for forgiveness and make a change to your life.
4. They read the Bible. An abundance of passages and rhems jump off the page when we are in a prolonged fast.
5. They worshiped. Praise and Worship open the heavens.
Something powerful happens when we do these five things!

Now on the twenty-fourth day of this month the children of Israel were assembled with fasting, in sackcloth, and with dust on their heads. Then those of Israelite lineage separated themselves from all foreigners; and they stood and confessed their sins and the iniquities of their fathers. And they stood up in their place and read from the Book of the Law of the Lord their God for one-fourth of the day; and for another fourth they confessed and worshiped the Lord their God.(Nehemiah 9:1-3)

Think about it:
Did you join the congregational fast this year?
What things did you separate from in order to give more time to God?
What things did you ask for forgiveness?
What did God do in this time of fasting?
