Small and Significant

Fasting. Fasting is not my favorite thing to do. I don’t enjoy it at all. At least I don’t enjoy the temporal discomfort that you experience when fasting. But I realize that what small gesture I’m making, makes room for the heavens to move. What I do here effects the heavens and takes back what Satan is trying to steal. Most of the time we don’t see the results from our physical fasting but we know that in heaven, mountains are moving! We know that deep empty wells of pain are being filled again with clean, pure restoration. So for this reason I give up a basic need. If my minuet sacrifice gives way to the freedom of my loved one, then so be it! I will do whatever it is I need to do to make space. God has called me to be the gap girl. I stand in the gap for those who cannot stand alone. I am the conduit. I am the bridge. I am to wire which God’s grace and life can flow through. Use me Abba Father. Use me! Take my tiny sacrifice and use it! This is for your son. This is for your beloved son who looks out at the dry land in desperation. You are his water of life. You are his cool drink that quenches. You are what his sights shall find when he seeks for refuge. A beacon of hope, Abba. Only you have what he needs. I ask that you go to him. Make him aware of your love for him. Show him that you have been with him all this time. Show him that it is not too late to have the life you promised him. I have faith in you Father. I know that you have him in your hands. You hold him more delicately than his own mother could. You created him for so much more than this. FREEDOM!! Abba Father. Freedom. I declare freedom for this one. For your child. He has been covered by your blood and will not be stolen by the evil ways of the ultimate deceiver. You have staked your claim on this one. I stand and say NO! in the face of evil. Enough is enough! Now is the time for the chains to be broken. Now is the time for the cycle to end! Abba Father, in the name of your precious son, Jesus, I ask that you rescue this one from the snare of the evil one. HE has been bought and paid for. You have redeemed him. You have made him clean and pure. There is no shame in you.

Thank you for all that you have given that we may know your love. Thank you for never giving up on your son and daughter. We are your reward. You are my good father and friend.
