Suffering is where transformation begins! What does that have to do with Lent? Many of us approach Lent thinking about what we have to give up. But what if Lent isn't mainly about loss… but about what God wants to build within us? In this episode, we explore the deeper meaning of penance, suffering, and the desert season of Lent. Why does the Church begin with ashes and words about death? How does penance actually train the heart? And why does every sacrifice ultimately point toward resurrection? Journal Questions: Where in my life right now feels like a desert, and how might God be inviting me to encounter Him there rather than escape it? What comfort, habit, or attachment might God be asking me to surrender so He can build something deeper in me? If resurrection always follows the cross, what “new life” might God be preparing in me through this season?

How shall we fast and pray? Let's talk.
Send us a textFasting is often treated as an optional discipline—or an extreme one. But in Scripture, fasting is a quiet act of humility that creates space for God to move in ways we cannot force.In this episode, Karl Gessler shares a brief but powerful testimony about how his friend Joe Roraff returned to Jesus after his father completed a 21-day fast. This is not a story about earning miracles or manipulating outcomes—it's about surrender, intercession, and the unseen spiritual effects of obedience.Sometimes fasting doesn't change our circumstances immediately. Sometimes it changes people. Sometimes, it saves a life.If you've ever wondered whether fasting really matters—or if it can make a difference for someone you love—this episode will encourage you to see effectual power of fasting to conform our world to Jesus.❤️ SHOW YOUR SUPPORT - LINKS BELOW...➡️ Email me: https://www.karlgessler.com/deliverance➡️ DONATE ➡️ Join our team!https://www.givesendgo.com/karlgesslerfamilybandhttps://www.patreon.com/karlgesslerhttps://cash.app/$KarlgesslerSocial Media➡️Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100089357625739➡️Telegram - https://t.me/FaithoftheFathers➡️Truth Social - https://truthsocial.com/@UCLOvq6O4aIXLrkKxwXkq3uASupport the show

836 Worshiping with Fasting and Prayer Night and Day, A Guided Christian Meditation on Luke 2:36-38 with the Recenter With Christ app The purpose of this podcast is to help you find more peace in and connect with the true source of peace, Jesus Christ. Outline: Relaxation, Reading, Meditation, Prayer, Contemplation and Visualization. You can sit comfortably and uninterrupted for about 20 minutes.You should hopefully not be driving or anything tense or unrelaxing. If you feel comfortable to do so, I invite you to close your eyes. Guided Relaxation / Guided Meditation: Breathe and direct your thoughts to connecting with God. Let your stomach be a balloon inflate, deflate. Scripture for Meditation RSV 36 And there was a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phan′u-el, of the tribe of Asher; she was of a great age, having lived with her husband seven years from her virginity, 37 and as a widow till she was eighty-four. She did not depart from the temple, worshiping with fasting and prayer night and day. 38 And coming up at that very hour she gave thanks to God, and spoke of him to all who were looking for the redemption of Jerusalem. NAB 36 There was also a prophetess, Anna, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was advanced in years, having lived seven years with her husband after her marriage, 37 and then as a widow until she was eighty-four. She never left the temple, but worshiped night and day with fasting and prayer. 38 And coming forward at that very time, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were awaiting the redemption of Jerusalem. Reflection on Scripture: The prophetess, Anna, dedicated her life to God. This scripture outlines her frequency in the temple as well as prayer and fasting. She was where God's presence was represented to be. As a result she was able to see the redemption of God and was able to share it. Catholics and Orthodox Christians hold Anna in reverence as a Saint. It is such an interesting micro story that is shared here. The woman is called a prophetess and it references her father as though we are supposed to know who he is. Or perhaps symbolically because his name means "Face of God" One fact that is hard to deny is that if we spend our time where godly things happen, we are more likely to encounter godly things. If we want to encounter God more in our life we should ponder on going to the places where His presence is represented for example church and making our home a sanctuary to the Lord. I sometimes reflect on the nature of this dedication. Obviously us as fallen and sinful humans don't get to decide where God goes based on what we dedicate to Him. God can choose to go anywhere God wants to go. With that said, when we dedicate places to God and set it apart, such as the Temple, we put ourselves in the kind of mind where we look for and see God more. Perhaps it is because he chooses to bless us with His presence to encourage us to do more of the things that He wants. So the invitation stands for us to dedicate our homes as sanctuaries to God and treat them as such, not making habits of sins that would challenge that dedication. Also spending time with Godly music, and also spending time in community with others in church attendance and worship. Also making prayer and fasting a part of our process of building a relationship with the Lord. Meditation of Prayer: Pray as directed by the Spirit. Dedicate these moments to the patient waiting, when you feel ready ask God for understanding you desire from Him. Meditation of God and His Glory / Hesychasm: I invite you to sit in silence feeling patient for your own faults and trials. Summarize what insights you have gained during this meditation and meditate and visualize positive change in your life: This is a listener funded podcast at patreon.com/christianmeditationpodcast Final Question: If you consider the invitation and command to persevere in the faith, what change in your life does that bring to your mind?

In this week's sermon, Pastor Brian speaks from the passages of Matthew 6:16–18, Joel 2:12–18, Isaiah 58 Matthew 4:1–11, and Acts 13:1–4.
Many believers aren't spiritually weak because they aren't working hard enough, but because they've grown dull. In this sermon from Matthew 6:16–18 and Isaiah 58, we discover God's purpose for biblical fasting and why Jesus assumed His followers would fast, not if, but when.Using Scripture from the Old Testament, the life of Jesus, and the early church, this message explains what fasting truly is, what it is not, and how God uses it to bring freedom, healing, strength, discernment, and breakthrough. Isaiah 58 reveals that fasting is not about outward performance but inward transformation, aligning our hearts with God so He can act on our behalf.This sermon calls the church to a 21-day fast, not as a religious ritual, but as a way to sharpen our spiritual edge, humble ourselves before God, and seek renewal for our church, our families, and the salvation of souls.If your spiritual life feels exhausting, this message may show you why and how God wants to restore clarity, power, and intimacy with Him.Key Topics: Biblical Fasting, Matthew 6, Isaiah 58, Spiritual Renewal, Prayer and Fasting, Christian Disciplines, Hearing God's Voice, Breakthrough Faith, Strength Against Temptation, Churchwide Fast

“We are a culture addicted to our ‘Christian crack,'” says Shane Idleman, the lead pastor of Westside Christian Fellowship. As the author of I Almost Quit: My Journey of Leading Through the Landmines of Ministry, Shane has been through the highs and lows of Christian ministry. He discusses the positive impact that prayer and fasting have had on his life and advocates for the routine use of fasting in our Christian walk to seek a closer relationship with the Lord. Shane also talks about the relationship between a healthy lifestyle and how it honors the Lord, as well as how we tend to, as Christians, still cling to worldly and comfortable addictions - whether it's caffeine, fried food, or a bad habit. “Fasting doesn't kill you,” he says. “Overconsumption does.”TAKEAWAYSFasting allows Christians to focus on CHRIST rather than their desiresCaffeine overstimulates the central nervous systemThe more you're filled with the Holy Spirit, the easier it will be to push discouragement out of your lifeWe can't be disobedient in stewarding our health and expect physical miracles at the same time

Longview Campus | Pastor Jonathan teaches on how prayer and fasting can be worship unto the Lord.
Genesis 3:1-7 New International Version 3 Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden'?” 2 The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, 3 but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.'” 4 “You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. 5 “For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.” 6 When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. 7 Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.
Romans 12:9-12 New International Version 9 Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. 10 Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. 11 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. 12 Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Fasting and Prayer for Revival Subtitle: Thoughts On Present Revival Speaker: Jonathan Edwards Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 9/22/2025 Length: 16 min.
I am sensible that somewhat considerable has been done in duties of this nature in some places, but I do not think so much as God in the present dispensations of his providence calls for. I should think the people of God in this land, at such a time as this is, would be in the way of their duty while doing three times as much at fasting and prayer as they do; not only, not principally, for the pouring out of the Spirit on those places to which they belong; but that God would appear for his church, and, in mercy to miserable men, carry on his work in the land, and in the world.
It's been a minute since the Perrys dedicated an episode to the topic of prayer, and they realize they pray differently today than they did back then. Just as sanctification changes who you are, it also changes your prayer life, so what do their prayers look like now?Jackie and Preston also take a look at several examples of prayer in the Bible. Scripture shows us how we can approach God when we think He is disciplining us or when we doubt He is for us. Prayer grounds us as Christians, reminding us that we can't lean on our own understanding. Through both prayer and fasting, God wants us to quiet our souls so we become more dependent on Him. You can also go back and watch the Perrys' conversation on prayer from 2022: Prayer: The Discipline We All Suck AtScripture references:John 15:2Romans 8:312 Corinthians 1:92 Kings 19:141 Samuel 2Acts 4:23-29Daniel 3:17-18Luke 22:42-43Isaiah 58:5-8 This Episode of With The Perrys is Sponsored By:https://weekendtoremember.com — Get $100 off when you use code PERRY at checkout!https://www.covenanteyes.com — Get Victory by Covenant Eyes FREE for 30 days with promo code PERRYS Subscribe to the Perrys' newsletter.To support the work of the Perrys, donate via PayPal.www.withtheperrys.comboldapparel.shopwww.jackiehillperry.comwww.preston-perry.com
