Denying my Flesh!

Fasting

When I fast what I am doing is denying my flesh from being fulfilled

Being that there is a war and my spirit has to win

My flesh has got to be killed.

Listen, God honors us when we deny our flesh

He not only sits high but also looks low

And does reward those who diligently seek Him

Read Hebrews 11:6 that this too you may know

Fasting is a key to take you into higher dimensions of freedom

Yes, it’s a key that’ll indeed help you die to your flesh and live spiritually.

See when I fast I’m able to focus and hear

I’m able to hear the Holy Spirit correct me, love me, guide me, etc.

My spiritual senses are heightened

And my spiritual eyes, ears and heart are enlightened

Now does my flesh ever want to fast, Oh No!

This is why; I can’t ever wait on my flesh to tell me when to do so,

Because it never will

However, my spirit on the other hand yearns for me to

Because it knows it’s a needed component

For my growth through and through

Fasting enables us to do a self check and this is a must for us to do

Because the only Jesus folks may see, the only Bible they may read,

And/or the only church they may ever have could only be you and me

So yes, it is imperative that we take this thing seriously

Now, I truly see why fasting to my flesh and the devil is such an enemy

For the reason being satan knows if I get in the presence of the Lord

Without hindrance I become more empowered

Not only in the natural but also in the spirit. Yes! Indeed

Though no, the desire to die to your flesh may not happen overnight

I’m here to tell you as long as you have the heart to do so

God will help you along the way

To stand up against your flesh and fight

The word of God tells us that man does not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord. Deuteronomy 8:3

 2 Corinthians 4:11 

For we who live are always delivered to death for Jesus’ sake, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh.
