Week 4 of our Walls of Jericho fast … breakthroughs …
By Les’a Cole
In the first two weeks of our Walls of Jericho fast, the battle raged. But this week, we began to see breakthroughs. Many people told me about miracles: some huge and some smaller: each was orchestrated by our Heavenly Father.
We only have two and a half more weeks. Let’s continue to press in!
Repeatedly throughout Scripture, we are encouraged to be strong – of courage – to not be faint-hearted. Isaiah 35:4b-6a wonderfully encourages that God will come with vengeance and will save us … and miracles will happen.
“Be strong and unafraid! … He will come and save you.” Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped; then the lame man will leap like a deer, and the mute person’s tongue will sing. For in the desert, springs will burst forth…” Is 35:4b-6a CJB
Last week, we saw the beginnings of healing miracles; financial miracles; emotional miracles. Yes, our YHVH is moving.
Next week, let us add our country to the other situations for which we are praying. In spite of all the negativity we see around us or hear on the news, let us remember that He promises “if My people, who bear My name, will humble themselves, pray, seek My face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear from heaven, forgive their sin and heal their land,” 2 Chron 7:14.
I am thankful He doesn’t say all the citizens of our country must pray – He states that IF HIS people will humble themselves HE will heal their land. As you and I, turn from our ways that are displeasing to YHVH, and pray, and seek Him, HE will heal our land.” Let’s continually bring our country before the Lord this week during our fast … along with the other situations. There are cracks in those walls that the enemy has errected – YHVH is breaking through. “Thanks be to God, who gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ,” 1Cor 15:57 ESV.
Prayer:
“Precious Father! Thank You for allowing us to see Your hand intervening in the situations for which we are praying. Help us to not be faint-hearted but to continue pressing in. We continue praying for those deperate situations in our families and friends. We also pray for You to heal our land. Bring peace to our country. Raise up righteous leaders – expose those with evil intent. Bring You peace to Israel. In the holy Name of our Messiah, b’shem Yeshua. Amen.”
