Fasting: Do You Have Parasites?

Do You Have Parasites?
 

The following is an excerpt from chapter 1 of my book, A Walk in the Wilderness:Wilderness 
  
Parasites:
During the first prolonged 21-day fast that I did, I kept a journal of parasites that were eliminated from my body.  I was surprised (shocked actually) to see what was living off of my body!  Statistically, 85% of North Americans unknowingly have at least one form of digestive parasite.
 
In America, the number one cause of persons being infected with Ecoli bacteria is from drinking tap water.  It is also probable that most forms of parasites enter our bodies through tap water.  Fasting is a method to rid the body of parasites.

 
As you seek the Lord and desire to serve Him more, are you considering fasting?  Read on…
 
 
How Scriptural is Fasting?

 

Dr. GreenwoodThere are nearly 70 references to fasting in the Bible.  Each week, I’ll share a few verses with you.  Searching the bible will help you discover more about fasting for yourself. 

 

Last week we looked at Mark 8:3.   

 

Acts 27:9 — Paul making reference to the annual day of atonement
 

Now when much time was spent, and when sailing was now dangerous, because the fast was now already past, Paul admonished them.

Future Vision

A Vision of Your Future

 

Every time Abraham looked up at the stars, he had a picture of the many generations of offspring that God had promised him. Even when Joseph was in prision, he had a dream of others bowing down to his leadership and authority.  Pictures move us.  What is the vision God has given you for your future?  Let that image fuel your momentum forward. 
 
Proverbs 29:18 — Where [there is] no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy [is] he.
 
Habakkuk 2:2 — And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make [it] plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.

 
John 16:13 – Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.

Keep Moving

Keep Moving

 

Deliberately release all things that slow your momentum — spirit, soul and body. Don’t give up.  Don’t revert back to where you were.  No matter what it looks like, breakthrough is just ahead. The devil will lie to you and tell you to quit, but keep moving. 
 
Isaiah 49:10 — They shall not hunger nor thirst; neither shall the heat nor sun smite them: for he that hath mercy on them shall lead them, even by the springs of water shall he guide them.
 
2 Corinthians 12:9 — My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness. Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.

Looking Ahead

 

Ask God to enlarge your vision in the New Year.  Allow the Spirit of the Lord to show you things to come and give you wisdom to prepare for them. 

John 16:13  – Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come.  

Habakkuk 2:2– And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make [it] plain upon tables, that he may run that readeth it.
 
Proverbs 4:7 — Wisdom [is] the principal thing; [therefore] get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.  

 

 

Have a blessed & prosperous New Year! 

 

 

lori Happy New Year!

Supernatural Wisdom

  • September 25, 2009 8:05 am

 
What would today be like if you approached every problem and situation with supernatural wisdom? 
 

1 Corinthians 2:16 — For, “Who can know what the Lord is thinking? Who can give him counsel?” But we can understand these things, for we have the mind of Christ.

 

Psalm 25:4-5 – Show me the path where I should walk, O Lord; point out the right road for me to follow. Lead me by your truth and teach me, for you are the God who saves me. All day long I put my hope in you.

A Well of Wealth

  • July 4, 2009 5:39 pm

The Lord has brought you through many tribulations and “trials by fire,” and by it, He has built a wealth of knowledge and a well of wisdom within you. Your goal is to allow others to draw from this well in the days ahead.  Many need to know the principles gleaned from your victories (and even your failures). This knowledge and wisdom will inspire others to persevere and trust God through every situation.

 
John 7:38 –  He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
 
Romans 8:35 & 37 – Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? [shall] tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?  Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. 

lori Wishing you a day of smooth sailing!
