    Monthly Young Adult "Power Fast"

    A message from Mario Cassase, Breached Young Adult Ministry

    Hi all,

    I hope and pray that you allow the Lord to teach and show you His way, for HIS glory and your good and your joy.

    Fasting can be a powerful an effective part of each of our walk with God. I say CAN BE because it can just simply be starving your body without spiritual growth at all.

    To get the most out of our times of fasting-prayer, we need to push our bodies to yield to the Lord. We need to cry out and spend time with God in prayer about HIS will and wisdom about our own situation, life or the lives of those we love. 

    I have personally experienced the Lord's freedom, seen the Lord deliver others from spiritual bondage and have recieved wisdom and direction. But I've also had nothing happen IF I just went through the motions of skipping meals.

    Spiritual fasting is something the we LEARN by experience and seeking understanding from those who have done it before.  Jesus speaks about "WHEN" you fast. He modeled it for us. Out current habit of a monthly 3-day fast was inspired by Pastor Vlad and it changed the entire young adult ministry. (See also Pastor Vlad "Hungry Gen" Youtube channel<<<<<<<)

    • [Hos 6:3 NASB20] 3 "So let's learn, let's press on to know the LORD. His appearance is as sure as the dawn; And He will come to us like the rain, As the spring rain waters the earth."
    • [Psa 1:1-3 NASB20] 1 Blessed is the person who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, Nor stand in the path of sinners, Nor sit in the seat of scoffers! 2 But his delight is in the Law of the LORD, And on His Law he meditates day and night. 3 He will be like a tree planted by streams of water, Which yields its fruit in its season, And its leaf does not wither; And in whatever he does, he prospers.
    • [Mat 25:41-45 NASB20] 41 "Then He will also say to those on His left, 'Depart from Me, you accursed people, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43 I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.' 44 "Then they themselves also will answer, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or [as] a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not take care of You?' 45 "Then He will answer them, 'Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do [it] for one of the least of these, you did not do [it] for Me, either.'
    • [Jer 9:23-24 NASB20] 23 This is what the LORD says: "Let no wise man boast of his wisdom, nor let the mighty man boast of his might, nor a rich man boast of his riches; 24 but let the one who boasts boast of this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD who exercises mercy, justice, and righteousness on the earth; for I delight in these things," declares the LORD.


      DAY 3

      1. Worship: 

      2. Scriptures: 

      [Isa 61:1 NASB95] 1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me, Because the LORD has anointed me To bring good news to the afflicted; He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to captives And freedom to prisoners;

      [Gal 5:1 NASB95] 1 It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.

      [Heb 12:11 NASB95] 11 All discipline for the moment seems not to be joyful, but sorrowful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness.

      [Act 2:38 NASB95] 38 Peter [said] to them, "Repent, and each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.

      [Act 3:6 NASB95] 6 But Peter said, "I do not possess silver and gold, but what I do have I give to you: In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene--walk!"

      [Act 16:18 NASB95] 18 She continued doing this for many days. But Paul was greatly annoyed, and turned and said to the spirit, "I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her!" And it came out at that very moment.

      [1Co 6:11 NASB95] 11 Such were some of you; but you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ and in the Spirit of our God.

      [Mar 5:8 NASB95] 8 For He had been saying to him, "Come out of the man, you unclean spirit!"

      [Mar 9:25 NASB95] 25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was rapidly gathering, He rebuked the unclean spirit, saying to it, "You deaf and mute spirit, I command you, come out of him and do not enter him again."

      [Luk 4:35-36 NASB95] 35 But Jesus rebuked him, saying, "Be quiet and come out of him!" And when the demon had thrown him down in the midst [of the people,] he came out of him without doing him any harm. 36 And amazement came upon them all, and they [began] talking with one another saying, "What is this message? For with authority and power He commands the unclean spirits and they come out."

      [Mat 17:21 NASB95] 21 ["But this kind does not go out except by prayer and fasting."]
