Day 12

Prov 29
Where there is no vision, the people are unrestrained,But happy is he who keeps the law.

There have been some great praise reports coming in about what has happened over these days of prayer and fasting. Healings, financial blessing, jobs, children coming to Christ even a wedding dress that had been lost for a year at a dry cleaners was found on the second day of the fast. We are so thankful to God for all that's happened but to be truthful I would still be thankful to God even if no prayers had been answered. Its good to remind ourselves that fasting doesn't bring about the answers it simply positions us in our relationship with Christ where He is central.
But its amazing what will happen when we do it.

Acts 10:30
30 So Cornelius said, “Four days ago I was fasting until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing, 31 and said, ‘Cornelius, your prayer has been heard, and your alms are remembered in the sight of God.

Vision gets birthed in the heart of people who will dedicate themselves to a lifestyle of prayer and fasting. So if you feel like your life is floundering then apply the discipline of fasting.
