“Our lives will begin to speak “Jesus”, and He will move as only He can.”

Fasting should put a demand on your life.
These stories are not only for us to celebrate what God has done, but to provide an atmosphere of expectation that says, “Come, do it again!” (Rev.19:10)
Faith works by obedience, and when you obey the ridiculous, you engage in the miraculous.

It's time to get up! Just as Deborah in the Book of Judges commanded the captain of the army when they were surrounded by the enemy. It is time for the Church to rise into the position of partnering with God, being an extension of Him on the earth. It's time to represent Him fully, in demonstration and power. We must know who we are. We cannot do this in our own strength, but as an extension of God, we can be confident as we obey Him and make Him known on the earth.
