Breakthrough Fast 2011 – Day 21 “The Fast is Broken”

The fast is broken. It’s Sunday morning, January 23rd. 21 Days of fasting is complete. How do you feel? I don’t know about you but I feel great. Physically, mentally and spiritually I feel refreshed and revived. I started this fast with 2 simple goals in mind. I wanted to fast for the discipline to walk in the vision that God has given me. And I wanted to honor God for the New Year. I don’t know about you...but I feel the hand of God working in my life and I claim the authority, the blessings, the favor, the strength and the cross that comes by being a child of the King.

Let me also say, thank you. Thank you for the many of you who have joined me and The Breakthrough Project on the Daniel Fast. I pray that everyone has been renewed and revived as a result of this experience.

Now the time comes to break the fast. Breaking the fast is the most difficult period after the fast; it requires discipline and self-control. I encourage you, to ease back into a normal eating pattern. We have cleansed our body of a lot of toxins the past 21 days. Be easy on the grease, the caffeine and the sugar. Your body will thank you later for it. Also, remember that a single fast is not a spiritual cure-all. Just as we need fresh in fillings of the Holy Spirit daily, we also need new times of fasting before God. Therefore, breaking this fast is not the end; it is only the beginning to a season of fasting that I am challenging you and me to continue in 2011.

Here are my tips for breaking the fast:

1. Take the 2nd Step of Faith
The fast was only the first step. Now, it is time to take the second step. Whatever you were praying for --- expect God to do the supernatural in that situation (Hebrews 11:1).

2. Make Time with the Lord a Priority
- Don’t fall back into old habits and allow the busyness of life to thwart the benefits and the blessings that you have experienced the past 21 days.
- Make a commitment to daily periods of pray, study and mediation.

3. Make a Commitment to a Healthy Lifestyle
- Do not overeat! Listen to your body. Discover the amount of food that your body needs to live a vibrant, healthy lifestyle.

I hope you have enjoyed my blogging these past 21 days. Stay tuned for future posts. Pray for me. I am praying for you.

All the best,
