If we fast together now We'll feast together in the age to come...

Hey gang,

This week we'll be fasting and praying as usual, but we'll be putting a little swing on things. A friend suggested to me that doing a negative-fast would be a fun idea. So we said that we would try and cut all negative talk out of our daily conversations and that every time we said something negative we would have to Hallel.
Hallel is a form of Jewish worship that basically means; to act foolishly before God. It is a form of praise and when in context of being adressed to people in regards to worshiping God it was a command and something the people had to do.
So i'd encourage you to take this week and engage in our negative-fast with us! Its a great way to feel the joy of the Lord, especially when add in a Hallel every here and then when you slip up.
Also i just want to remind and encourage you all with a little fun bit of revelation God gave me on this group. Back when we 1st started this fasting team i was in a prep room engaging in tounges and focusing on God and he brought up something i had said at one of our first meetings:
"If we fast together now We'll be feasting together in the age to come."
He reminded me of what i had said and put a level of seriousness to it. I truely believe that if we continue to fast together throughout our lives we will truely be sitting with eachother at the Bridgroom Feast (Marriage supper of the Lamb) in the millenial kingdom.
So be encouraged and God Bless!!!!
