    Let’s say a prayer for Pastor Iren:His strength will not fail. He is empowered more and more by God to do great things and impact the lives of many people. His needs are met and he’d have even more to help others. His team too, they also get better for this. They don’t miss out of the blessing of God.
    You’re strengthened sir. Your strength won’t fail when you need it the most. God keeps you, your family and your team. You’re a blessing to us in this generation and more to come.
    Thank you for giving yourself to this service.

    A simple hack towards fasting that I once heard from Apostle Femi Lazarus was don’t rush into a 6am-6pm fast, you won’t yield any result. However if you want to grow in God you need to fast and to be a master at it you start by skipping breakfast and instead of eating breakfast you study the word and after a certain while you step up, you skip breakfast and lunch to study the word of God and like that. Hope this helps someone!🫶🏾

    Tried the praying tips from yesterday’s class. And I prayed for over an hour without even noticing. It was really nice just being vulnerable and pouring my heart out to my Abba.
    The sweetest thing was that I said it was just going to be a 15mins prayer, but I kept going till it was over an hour. And I didn’t even peep to check time😂.
    Thank you Apostle. God bless you.

    WHY YOU SHOULD FAST
    Fasting is more natural than people think, if you are grieving or if you're in deep sorrow, you will loose appetite immediately.
    When it comes to fasting;
    1. Even without religious motivations, people still fast for different reasons. Acts 23:12.
    2. The principle behind fasting is that I desire God more than necessarily food. Job 23:12. If you focus on the abstainance of food itself, then you are making it a mere hunger strike. Exodus 24:16.
    3. Why you fast is more important than you fasting. Fasting emphasizes priority. And so you value your destiny in God more than food. There are bigger priorities in my life. Exodus 34:9,28, Hebrews 12:15-16.
    4. When you have food and you deliberately choose not to eat, it shows your consecration and reveals your ability to put your body under. 2corinthians 6, Acts 13.
    5. It Is part of discipleship which can also be termed as a hard reset button. If you find yourself acting beyond your normal behaviour, fasting is the best choice.

    Lust is one, with many tributaries just the same way the fruit of the spirit finds expression in different ways. The habit of satisfying all that comes to your heart strengthens the flesh.
    Fasting can serve as a reminder that there are bigger priorities than food.
    The purpose of fasting is to put the body under.
    Fasting can help to deal with indiscipline/lack of self restraint and inconsistencies.

    This is so timely! It basically explained something I was wondering about resetting your spiritual life! I completely agree because even though I didn’t know the explanation of how, I have seen it happen for me. I had been in a bad place for weeks but I really wanted to make a turn around and so as the Holy Spirit prompted, I did a 3 day fast this week and I’ve had so much more discipline than ever! Me that was wondering how I will rectify my sleep pattern to wake at 6am for devotion, but I have been waking consistently no matter how late I sleep. Things just became easier. Worship and prayer are easier too!
    As I’ve heard this word now, I will just extend the fast till Friday to build some more muscle. Thank you so much Apostle for teaching us these important principles!
    God bless you, Sir 🙏🏾

    Day 79 - Why You Should Fast
    The essence of fasting is prioritizing a desire for God over physical needs, as emphasized in Job 23:12. Fasting is not merely about abstaining from food but about dedicating oneself to God's presence. When done correctly, fasting reinforces spiritual priorities, helping to curb desires and strengthen discipline.
    Hebrews 12:15 warns against allowing physical desires, like Esau's hunger, to overshadow spiritual values. Lust, whether for food, sex, or money, is a lack of discipline that fasting can help address by emphasizing spiritual over physical needs.
    Fasting aligns priorities with God's will, serving as a demonstration of valuing spiritual destiny over physical sustenance. It also provides a "hard reset" in one's spiritual life, aiding in overcoming inconsistencies and promoting self-control across different areas.
    Also, fasting has practical health benefits, reinforcing the connection between spiritual and physical well-being. Regular fasting, even in small increments, is encouraged to build consistency and discipline.

    I heard the topic of today's DOD during this morning's Triumph 30 devotion and I was astonished! It's how Pastey always has a word for whatever season I find myself in for me! I literally began a fast yesterday and BOOM a teaching on fasting drops today! I don't think I'll ever get used to how amazingly God works. Actually, I never want to. "May I never lose my awe 🎶". Thank you Apostle for your sacrifice and obedience to God's Spirit. God bless you
