The fulness of the earth, the beasts of the field, the fowls of the air,
the herb, the good things- for food, raiment, housing, barns, orchards, gardens, vineyards!
strengthening your body.. enlivening your soul..
Finding pleasure and exacting your labors, loosing the bands of wickedness- heavy burdens undone!
Oppressed going free, yokes broken
Your light breaking forth like morning, your health speedily springing forth..
calling secretly into the silent air, the name of Heavenly Father
and then
being answered by Him.
Your waste places built up, foundations of generations to come built because of YOU, repairing and restoring, riding upon the highest places of Earth, fed with the heritage of Jacob himself..
All this, spoken by the mouth of the Lord, PROMISED.. if we take Fast Sunday seriously. The one day of the month to bring in the bacon with faith. The BEST day of the month. I have seen it. I love it. I am spoiled beyond reason with the rich and unending rewards and fulfilment, of these very blessings.
Fast with a purpose, write those purposes down, pray for your answers- and love it. Love that God loves to spoil you and those you love, for your love towards him. Love it because you love God, and thereby love his children. See that you can be made for and through Jesus Christ, far more than you ever, ever hoped you could make yourself out to be. It is worth every fast offering and fasting, every prayer, and every ounce of faith you've got. : )
