Sometimes in life you have difficult times and are looking around for any way to get them behind you.
The only way to get over something is to go through it. Some wonder why God would not rescue them from such horrible things.
There isn’t a way to avoid some things. Those who are Christ followers around you may encourage you by telling you to pray and read the Bible so you will build your faith—all of this will give you direction.
Praying and reading your Bible certainly will make a difference in your life as it truly does in mine. But sometimes you do those things and you still aren’t feeling that God is there.
I assure you He’s always there. He wants the best for you and has a purpose in the pain and hard times.
Numerous times people prayed in the Bible for direction and answers and sometimes they brought fasting into the mix. I have to say sometimes this is necessary for the situation at hand.
If you are just going through it right now and are questioning God and wanting answers, I encourage you to pray, read your Bible to get to know His will, and fast.
Some do a full fast for a day or even a week. Sometimes my husband and I pick a meal to fast each day for a period of time. During the time we would eat, we pray and seek God in the Scriptures.
What are you currently experiencing and seeking direction for? Pray, fast, and seek God. I assure you that He will direct your path.
