Here is my experience with doing a 7 day water only fast. I've done it before and received incredible freedom. Desperate times call for desperate measures and in our desperation we can either take things into our own hands or we can seek the Lord. The video contains clips from every day of the fast.
I did a 7 Day Water Fast back in 2015 it was pretty hardcore and the hardest thing I ever it but I’m so happy I was able to break through the mental, emotional, spiritual and physical Barriers 😊
yes its definitely one of the hardest things I've ever done but so worth it- really strengthened my faith & also brought incredible freedom into my life!
“Everyday I want to give up, it is not easy” 😂
I love your authenticity!! I did a 14days water fast and oh boy there were some days I thought I was going to meet Jesus face to face. 🤞🏾
It requires some level of discipline, I’m glad you finished yours ♥️
😂 yes! But it’s also a period of discovery. When we push through (fight the flesh man) then we learn how POWERFULLY DIVINE our body truly is… we don’t die! We actually start to thrive ✨✨✨ and we make the 7, 14, 21 days fast. Vowing to do it again soon. Fasting may be hard at times, but there’s no disputing that coupled with prayer: it’s POWERFUL ACTION 💥

The presence of the Holy Spirit is truly amazing. To just gaze and literally surrender yourself is a beautiful experience, unexplainable really!
I also want to do it again, and again 🤍
Lol😂😂
yes wow 14 days sounds impossible but I love your hunger for the Lord! Praise God for your testimony and I pray that through this fast you were able to deepen your relationship with Christ.

Here’s a tip, prepare your mind. We have been indoctrinated from kids to believe that the piece of cake 🍰, our favorite meal etc is the reward. Instead, as you enter into the fast, keep telling yourself “this fasting is the reward ✨✨✨ I GET to fast to the Creator of This Universe and He is pleased” 🙏🏻 peace be with you.
Wow! Thank you for sharing this
I came to UA-cam looking for motivation. I just made it to day 5, and I am really struggling. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Thank you so much for letting me know and for watching it! Fasting is very challenging but also very rewarding.
Me too!
The only fast that will change your entire life is giving up that plate!
So inspiring, day 3 of my day 7 first ever water fast... so relatable, ive also done smaller fasts before but this is the first time stretching myself ,as u said desperate times calls for desperate measures.👏
Thank you for watching! It is very hard to do a 7 day fast- but noting good comes easy. Proud of you 😊
I'm planning to start my 3 day water fast and this video has encouraged me so much! Thank you for your honesty and vulnerability!
I hope your fast went well!
Wish I had seen this video last week while I was on my 7 day water fast, but also glad I'm seeing it now. I completed my 7 day water fast but I felt I didn't feel God, and the whole reason I went on the fast was similar to your reasons. I had allowed the cares of this life to distract me from my walk with God and I kinda lost focus so I wanted/needed to draw near back to God. Yes I know its not about feelings but Faith and Trust in God but it still discouraged me a little bit, but I pressed through.
I'm glad God gave me the strength to do it because it wasn't easy, and even though it seems like nothing drastic has happened I believe that even when I don't see it, He's working behind the scenes as you mentioned. Thank you and God bless you 🙏
Thanks for sharing your experience. Fasting is not easy but I do believe the Lord rewards those who diligently seek him. I hope as a result your heart becomes more in tune with the Spirit. Anytime I feel distant from God I try to fast to restore that connection. One of my favorites books on fashion is by Jentzen Franklin, I would highly recommend reading it!
Dis you pray every day morning noon and night thank him for everything all the problem that make you patient jesus give us issues to give us the things we ask him for ! For example I asked jesus for more patience yesterday I woke up to clearer chicken blood and gallon of milk all over the floor! It was a way to make me patient I'm trying getting better! 😂 but you have to ask him talk to him everyday he is listening to you
Breaking 7 day water only fast after 2 minutes! Glory be to God for keeping me. Amen. Your video encourage me
Praise the Lord for your fast!! Thanks for sharing and inspiring us!! I did a 29 day water only fast, 2 months ago and I am preparing for another🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Wow,did you use any supplements.
No…I didn’t use any supplements, I think day 15 I added salt lemon in my water…was the only day.☺️
Today is the final 2 hours of my 7 day water fast and its been an amazing journey! I want to thank you for posting your daily testimonies and I pray that our Father has blessed you tremendously after yours was complete... I too have done a a 7 day in the past along with little ones so I found many things in common.. thank you again , in Jesus name..
Such an accomplishment, not easy to do it- I hope it's drawn you closer to the heart of God!
On my last day 7, Daniel fast. My carnal mind and flesh are fighting it real hard! But I’m blessed by the lord to be able to get through this! Thank you for this video!! ❤
Praise God for giving you the determination to continue! Yes many days I didn't feel like God was doing anything. But the fast was so fruitful!
Daniel fast is 10-21 days. Try to complete it aleast 10 days and if u can push it a lil more complete it 21 days. It’s worth it . Daniel fast never fails to release breaktru and answered prayers. Also be reading daniel 9 everyday of the Daniel fast for repentance and mercy
Thank you so much, your video just popped up when I'm on my first day of 7 days fast.
I continue praying for a godly marriage and breakthrough in all areas of my life.
I know God is working in my life, He is perfecting everything that concerns me. Thank you so much for the beautiful video💜🙏
I made this video a few years ago crying out to God for a husband and for other things and now I am married. God is good! stay faithful to him :)
I appreciate how you talk about fasting being an act of faith especially when you feel like you dont feel anything or during the fast.
yeah we focus so heavily on feelings, when Jesus talks more bout faith. thanks for watching :)
Precious sister Sheeba!
I am going to start my 7 day of prayer and fasting from 6 AM. May God give me strength and bless my sacrifice.
I pray the Lord gives you strength. It won’t be easy but the Lord rewards those who diligently seek him!
Hi Sheeba I am on day 7 of water fast 6am - 6pm and yesterday I felt so sad and I sobbed in the morning. I was so angry and agitated, this morning I'm feeling anxious and I am fasting for that. I am still praying to God and I'm hoping things will get better after the fast. Praying my obedience will pay of
When you're agitated & frustrated, the devil is also fighting you. Please do not ,do not quit.... Keep going. Please read Zechariah 8:19 - it clearly states that the fast of July is a joyful fast.. Great things are coming your way ,no fast is in vain. Throughout the day, keep thanking YHWH, even if you're angry- in that moment just say " thank You YHWH" & pray throughout. Remember fasting is literally starting a battle with the devil. Keep fighting your battle .
Hello, yes I felt frustrated as well when doing it. I would just encourage you spend quality time with the Lord. You don't have to strive. It's not about working to please God. Just rest and pray that God would help you overcome the anxiety- fill your mind with the word of God.
oh my gosh Sheeba! Cass from OU. I'm glad you are doing well. Look at God; He is amazing. Keep up the good work. "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10
so timely! Im doing a 7 day fast and felt God leading me to Nehemiah too
Thank you for watching and for leaving a comment- I pray that your fast would help you draw nearer to God and for breakthrough!
This is so inspiring! I started fasting this year for the first time, & the hardest fast I’ve done so far has been a 3 day dry fast. The Lord is so good!!! I’m going to do a 7 day water fast like this. May our Lord continue to bless & keep you! 💗
That’s amazing, 3 days is quite challenging too. God sees your sacrifice and I pray he gives you the strength.
@@sheebachats Thank you so much!
haha the part about how you ate for 1 hour after breaking your first fast 😂 I did somewhat the same thing and had a sore stomach after. My recent 7 day fast I broke with soup as you did, so good. God bless you, this was delightful to watch
yes, I was so excited to eat and just binged the first time. Thanks for watching!
On day 2🙌, thank you for your honesty . It's hard but I'm going strong In Jesus name🙏
yes it is very hard but so worth it, keep pressing forward! You'll be drawn closer to Jesus.
On day 2 today am pressing on❤
I am on a 6-6 fast, this is day 3 of 7.
Thank you sister in Christ for these encouraging words. 💜 Your video came up on my feed for the first time. It’s purely the Lord. I’ve been on this fasting journey since the beginning of the year now and the first 10 minutes of your video have been motivating me to stay on it. Confirmation by God. His timing is perfect. May the Lord continue to use you as encouragement for the saints! Romans 12:8, 2 Cor 12:5. I’ve shared these two passages these past two days on my social media and again, God is reassuring me to press forward. All for His Kingdom 👑 🕊💪
Thank you for the encouragement!
This was encouraging I’m on Day 3 I’m going to make it
Thank you for sharing your experience, I mostly don't finish my fast because I feel hungry and I give up, and I mostly don't feel the presence of God...
Your words are super encouraging, thank you for this video 🥲
thank you :)
Just got this video in my recommendation. And during a weak moment during my fast. Look at God! He’s amazing
Amazing, I love how the Holy Spirit leads us to what we need! Thanks for sharing :)
So encouraging. I am right now doing Daniel's fasting.
Day 1 of my fast, I started last night and can’t wait for what it will bring. About a year ago I did the 21 Daniel fast and I had such breakthrough from the fears I had been feeling all my life. It first got worst (100x worst) before it got better. I felt such fear everywhere I went but I kept going with my fast and kept reading and praying and god spoke to me. I can’t wait to see what this one will bring.
Keep making videos you really made some good points and I’m so happy you decided to share this experience Hallelujah 🌞
Glory to God I am so proud of you and the strength He gave you to continue..GOd is faithful💕🙏
thank you for watching and for the encouragement :)
This is so helpful and encouraging. Thank you for sharing 💕🙏🏽

Fasting gives a good shape too just eat once a day you will see amazing change spiritually and physically 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

This was very encouraging sis! So glad I found your channel
Thank you so much for watching & leaving a comment, Im glad you're encouraged watching it & thanks for encouraging me with your comment :)
May God continue to Bless you. This is my first 7 day water fast. I’ve always fast but for a set amount of time. I’ve done 6 to 12 hours dedicated to God in fasting but felt the lord pressing me for more. And just am going dry turkey. 😅 God is Good!
Thank you! Fasting is very hard but also very challenging
@@sheebachats just finished the 7 days and gave it to Jesus this morning. Wow! Difficult but amazing. I know God has been the one to give strength. God is good!!!
@@maricelalaines-crus7929 doesn't it feel so amazing to complete a fast! It's hard during, but afterwards you feel so accomplished!
This was so encouraging. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you so much!
Thank you my sister. Holy spirit send you cause I was feeling that God is not answering me
Thanks for the encouragement. I know I need to fast and this is very encouraging.
Thank you for watching & leaving a comment!
Thank you for making this beautiful video and Keep on believing GOD.
Thank you so much :)
So happy to hear this ,God bless you .It will motivate many of them
Thank you :)
Amen sis! Thank you for the video
Thanks for watching! Hope it encouraged you :)
Thank you for this video. 🙏🏽 It was very informative and felt sincere.
Thank you 😊
Very encouraging video! I am on day 3 of 7 just water fast. And as a mom and wife that still cooks for my family it is not easy but God is my strength! Can you share the Butternut squash soup recipe plz ❤
wow that is challenging to fast while cooking for everyone else, very inspiring! I made it so long ago that I do not remember the recipe.
All glory be to God sheeba... God bless you
Thank you!
I’m on my 7th day and the last 3days I have hardly prayed 😭
I am on day 3 and Yesterday my principal told me we were going to have a staff lunch today and I was thinking of what to eat to break it before the lunch. And just like that bam God was like not so fast you made a promise, after work she told me that it was canceled😂😂😂😂😂 until in the new year.
Haha that is awesome, I have been in those situations before as well. Its ok to tell someone you're fasting if you need to-- or say you're doing an intermittent fast to avoid a lot of questions
Thank you... Veryinsightful
thanks for watching!
Thank you for sharing your experience it really encouraged me ❤
thank you for watching!
Thank God for your life sister ❤
Thanks for the motivation ..
thank you for watching :)
Well done girl, God bless ❤
Thank you! I need to make fasting a regular part of my life but it so hard haha
I just interrupted a 3 day water fast because i thought i was going to collapse. Ive done 24h before.. but at 26h it was too much.. watching you talking with a smile on your face... wheww i definately did not have that energy.. i think i need to give this another try
Proud of you for having the desire to fast, you can start slow and build your way up to 7 days. There were times I felt like fainting, you should include electorlytes or salt water to stabilize your potassium levels
@@sheebachats awww such a sweet message 💕 i did again and it was a success.. sea salt definately helped.. it worked so well that i decided to extend it a little longer =) thanks for your advices!!
Thank you for this
Thanks for sharing Sheeba!
Amen 😊
thank you!
🙏🏽🔥 Amen!!
My 7 days fasting starts today from 6:00am, so help me God 🙏😇
So surprising how this video popped up at the right time and let my time with God begin 😇
Same here. I started today. God bless you
Love it❤️❤️
Thank you :)
Thank u for sharing.
My pleasure! thank you for watching
I’m on day 3 extremely emotional exhausted hungry and I don’t feel connected, can hardly pray today . It’s so hard
Fasting is probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever done- there are many times I’ve consecrated a fast but was unable to complete it because of the difficulty. On my first 7 day fast I was totally healed of anxiety. I had to constantly read books on fasting (fasting by jentzen Franklin) and watch sermons about it in order to encourage myself to keep going. I pray the Lord gives you strength to continue!
If u feel like not praying it is becoz yo breakthrough is at hand so the devil will fight and try to discourage you..he will put negative thoughts in your mind .SO keep a note book and right some prayer points so that u can read them aloud repeatedly...u will breakthru in Jesus name...WE ARE MIGHTY CONQUEROR'S IN JESUS..... AMEN..SHALOM
@@prayerandfastingtestimonies Amen
Thanks for watching this video! If you have any questions regarding fasting or my experience let me know!
Did you only ha water for the 7 days?
How did you handle being around others when you felt agitated ?
@@triannaanderson hi thank you for visiting my channel :) I had to remind myself that I didn't want my attitude to cancel out the purpose of the fast. You feel very agitated for the first 2 days but afterwards you feel too weak to even be agitated. Hope this helps
Thank you for thjs video on fasting. i am now on my 2nd day of a 7 day fast from 6am to 6pm. is it ok to drink a fruit smothie or just drink the water only? I just subscribed to your channel. May God bmess you abundantly.
Hello, I think ultimately that is between you and God. There are times I've done a fast where I would drink a smoothie or soup. The Lord honors your sacrifice! Thank you :)
Hi, did you get your breakthrough from this fast?
What electrolytes did you use?
Beautiful video, sis. God bless you. ❤
Thank you 😊 honestly I would use something like Gatorade and dilute it with water so it wasn’t super sweet. It helped so much!
I would like to know do you not eat for 7 days or do you break your fast every night and start a new 1 in the morning....thank
there are many different kids of fasts and for this one I did not eat for 7 days- every once in a while I would drink chicken broth or something with electrolytes because my salt balance was way off & I would feel dizzy.
Hi sheeba, this I truly powerful, I am currently on my 2nd day and I can admit that it is extremely hard, but like you said whenever I feel like giving up I should remind myself of the rewards and the purpose of establishing a deeper personal relationship with God, there is one thing I’m a bit confused about as this is my first time fasting and I just wanna know if I break my fast on the 7th day or 8th day? Your response will be greatly appreciated God bless 🙏🏼xx
I hope you were able to complete the fast, whether the 7th or 8th day is up to you and what you've decided with the Lord
What time did u break by drinking water
How u go about the fasting..at what time period u drink the water
hi, I drink water often throughout the day and sometimes mix electrolytes into my water for sustained energy
When did u break
Your routine fasting also keeps you very beautiful
thank you!
❤❤❤
thanks for watching :)
Nice video did u eat after six during your seven days or was it water alone straight
Hello, I did not eat for this fast. I drank water and also used some electrolytes in my water. I have done a partial day fast before as well.
You're very beautiful woman
Did you break your fast exactly on day 7 or did you wait till 12am?
For this one I broke it on the 7th day in the evening around dinner. I don’t have a hard and fast rule on this.
@@sheebachats thank you for your response
I got a diahrea on my 4th day i broke the fast. Can i just start over to day 5 or do i start back from day 1. Trying to do 14 or 21 days. Helpppp
Hello, that is ok. You don’t have to be so hard on yourself. God sees the effort you’ve made. Just pick up where you left off!
But we are told not to tell anyone that we are fasting.
good point, I kept it a secret while I was fasting and made the video much later. Scripture talks about Jesus fasting and it inspires us to follow his example. I made this video to encourage people not to boast in myself.
What happened to you after the 7 days fast. Did you flget a breakthrough?
Yes! After the first 7 day fast God healed me of anxiety. The 2nd time I did a 7 day fast I was praying for marriage and 2 years later I got married 😊 God is faithful!!!
