Fasting like Daniel – Day 2

Surrender

Fast: Lunch

“Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” Matthew 6:10 (NKJV)

Fasting is not about our will, but God’s will. Total surrender to Him in all aspects of your life. It is impossible to divide your life in little boxes and deciding which box to surrender to God and which box you are still forcing your own will one.

Guaranteed, the areas where you struggle in life are the little box to which you cling too. God lovingly created you and accepted You as a package deal. Good boxes and bad. He wants it all because only He knows the divine way to either repack the box or discard the contents. I am sure by the end of your fast you will find empty boxes in the areas you’ve surrendered to Him.

Scripture: Matthew Chapters 4-5 and Daniel 9:5

Prayer: Father, please highlight the areas in my life in which I have not completely surrendered and help me to surrender to You. It’s all about Your will Father and not my own. Amen.

(Tomorrow we will be fasting breakfast.)
