Fasting Secrets Revealed | Secret # 2

Image
Fasting Secrets Revealed | Secret # 2 is from chapter two of my book by the same name. I hope you are inspired by the following excerpt from chapter two. It is about the misteaching of the mustard seed. Jesus did not refer to the size of the seed but he said if you have faith "as" a mustard seed. The word "as" refers to the character of the seed.  If you need a miracle, do not depend on a small amount of faith to get the job done. Push back the plate as Jesus said and go into prayer. Nothing shall be impossible unto you. With extreme situations, we must take extreme measures to see it turn around. " Matthew 17: 20 And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. 21 Howbeit this kind goeth not out but by prayer and fasting.   Mark 9:25­27 When Jesus saw that ...

Fasting Secret Number One | You Must Overcome Yourself

  Fasting Secret Number One | You Must Overcome Yourself Learn how to fast for breakthrough, healing, and salvation for those you love. Below is an excerpt from chapter one of my book, Fasting Secrets Revealed | Breakthrough Fasting. I want you to have that strong miracle faith. Jesus wants you to have that strong miracle faith. The way we get it is by pushing back the plate and seeking his face. We are not seeking power but direction, boldness, faith, and humility. Praying and fasting are more about the relationship than anything. When our old man is dead, we can hear from God. Our flesh is that veil, like the veil of the temple in Matthew chapter 27 that separated the holy place from the most holy place. As Jesus' body was ripped to shreds on the cross, our flesh needs to be ripped to shreds, so to speak by fasting and prayer. If we die with him, we can live with him. If we humble ourselves, he will exalt us in due time. The "easy believeism" and microw...

  Learn How to Pray Matt 6:5-8 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward. 6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet , and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly . 7 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen do: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking. 8 Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him. Thayers Lexicon says that a closet is an inner chamber or secret room.   Re- Matthew 6:6 thy closet / Prayer is the most secret intercourse of the soul with God, and as it were the conversation of one heart with another. The world is too profane and treacherous to be of the secret. We must shut the do...

PREACHING ON PRAYER

  Preaching and Teaching on Prayer Audio Visit: charlesarhodus.com for discounted reading material and more! The following is an excerpt from my book "The Urgent Need of the Hour | Revival Praying" "When a person takes importunity into their closet, mighty things can happen. When Jesus talked about closet praying, He meant what He said. There is an open reward for those that pray secretly. Your ability to stay with God in prayer will affect your faith. Too many never pray in their “closet”. They are too busy. Prayer for them is the spare tire. It is the flare in the trunk in case they break down one day. Prayer should be our compass, our steering wheel. Praying on your way to work is good but it is not a closet. Your closet could be your basement, your attic or for most, it is their bedroom. A place of seclusion and privacy.   Importunity may be the single most important point in prayer. Without it, prayer can be of a lazy value. It may be sleepy and without faith.  You...
