Fast for Financial Wealth (The Daily Experience)

Do Daily
Make the time to start your day with Prayer. Prayer is the food that WILL sustain you through the fast

• Keep your financial goals in range, printed if necessary & pictures help if you are visual. Reach for them as often as you can, to keep you focused on the reasons for the fast. Feed yourself on them even before you get hungry.
• Pray and discuss financial goals with accountable shifter
• Substitute meal times with prayer
• Stay hydrated; substitute meals with water
• Keep busy, idle time makes time go slower & food temptations are lingering, looking for an opportunity.
• Do your best to remain positive & focus on God, for no temptation will come to you that he hasn't allowed. He has allowed it for a reason, so seek God for the answers & not focus on the enemy.
See, How to make it through a fast

Day 1
Today, seek God to reveal why he has called you to this fast & pray for his grace so you can endure.
"Keep on asking and it will be given. Keep on seeking and you will find. Keep on knocking and the door will be opened (Mat 7:7)

The day usually goes by quickly, especially if you are keeping busy, as you are still motivated & excited & not yet too hungry.  Light hunger pangs might kick in the late afternoon.
Please, don't get to busy to pray to start your day & during meal times. That's your food and it will sustain you through the day.

Day 2
Today, dedicate to seeking God to transform your financial mindset, according to his will & purpose for your life.
"Do not be copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know Gods will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." (Rom 12:2)

"Lord, please let me not copy the financial behaviors & habits of the world, but transform my finances anew by changing the way i think about money. So i can know how & what way to use my money for your will and for what is pleasing & perfect to you." NicaKan, Fast for Wealth Shifter, 2012

"Fasting can bring lows where one finds a negative to feel discouraged. Ignore those negative voices and focus on the big picture: God's will for your life and through your life." Eric Gondwe, author of All Fasting Secrets (download free copy of book here).
