Fasting and prayer is 100% effective 100% of the time. Let’s have CONFIDENCE!
I have been fasting one day per week for the outcome of this election. The first time I did it was with the intention of Sarah Palin’s debate. To me that seemed a lost cause, yet after prayer and fasting, she absolutely blew him out of the water.
Seeing how well that worked, I continued to do so for the election’s outcome. That is why I am much more optomisitic than most people around me.
As a side note, I was feeling particularly down a couple of days ago about the confidence the Dems and even some “Republicans” were having regarding an Obama win. I got up early and prayed. I asked God to give me a little something in the way of guidance or comfort. I opened up my Bible to a random page and found the following that stood out to me:
“Tell him, ‘It is not for the man who is buckling his armor to boast as though he were taking it off.’”
-1 Kings 20:11
I don’t claim to be any kind of prophet. Nor do I know if it truly was God speaking. I do know it made me feel better.
I can’t remember an election in which there was a more stark reason for God’s intervention. I pray He does.
