Mine was no matter what, KEEP GOING! God isn't looking at my perfection but my genuine effort and sacrifice. I'm still learning that I AM already made PERFECT through his son Jesus. Any fast or level of whatever sacrifice made is only worthy and acceptable bc of Jesus ultimate sacrifice given at Calvary. That's it. God Bless you Sister Tracy and every last 1 of these beautiful ladies who were vulnerable and gave this fast their BEST EFFORTS! All of you rock and I was so blessed by everyone's uplifting messages! Love you ALL and let's go walk through our open doors toward our God-given destinies with new found Godfidence!

Hi Lola, I'm so sorry for responding late, but there's a scripture somewhere in Proverbs, perhaps you can google it," A RIGHTEOUS PERSON falls down 7 times and 7 times GETS BACK UP"! Remember, the Bible isn't literally saying that this person only falls down 7 times and that's it, but it's a figure of speech and because our God loves expressing facets of his characters through numbers or numerology(in a HOLY WAY, not the way the world uses numbers) 7 seems to be his special number. 7 represents completeness, perfection and finality. So I said all that to say, Don't focus on how dirty you think you are or worthless bc that's a trick of the enemy playing off your human emotions and trying to keep you stuck in sinful cycles. Get your emotions in line with what God's Word really says about WHO you are, which is the RIGHTEOUSNESS of God in Jesus Christ according to 2 Corinthians 5:21. Jesus took all that dirtiness and shame of yours, so don't you dare take it back! Don't keep allowing your human emotions to whisper its LIES OVER YOU in your thoughts! The enemy loves that. STOP whatever your doing that you know is wrong and ask the Father to help give you the strength to overcome through the tangible power of the Holy Spirit! Find scriptures in wherever you struggle and both MEDITATE and PRAY those over yourself in your quiet time with God. Before this gets too long, last thing I want you to know is I will be touching/agreeing with you for God to HONOR all of your godly requests for hairgrowth, more tangible power to overcome any bad devices(myself included bc your not alone --- we all struggle with something) and overall for you to see more tangible breakthrough in EVERY AREA OF YOUR LIFE! God Bless you and just start from somewhere bc he knows your REAL HEART and he will reward all your real efforts with moving forward!

@Samy You are so welcome gurl! Anytime!

Don't feel bad Sammy, I accidentally forgot I was fasting and ate something outside of the Daniel Fast today during the designated time. I was tempted to feel condemnation ALL day but I decided NOT to allow that feeling into my spirit! I made a mistake bc I'm human and God knows my true, sincere heart and he knows yours as well! Don't be nervous gurl, you got this and you will finish your fast strong and prayed up! You will NOT cheat on this fast and you will accomplish everything this fast was designed for AND become that better version of YOU in the process. God bless you in every way this week and beyond in EVERY WAY!

Tracy that's OK! Ladies on here, keep praying, fasting, and in the midst of those 2 things continue trusting God! Keep your faith unshakable and unmovable! 1 last thing, don't forget to RELAX and rest up the remainder of this weekend! I know circumstances around us look CRE right now, but PLEASE let's NOT forget to keep those affected my the government shutdown the MOST and in general the Body of Christ, esp those who are currently being persecuted for their faith. I FIRMLY believe prayer changes things and makes miracles! God Bless everyone 1 of you in EVERY WAY your needing your breakthroughs for!

Tracy and everyone, I appreciate everyone's transparency during this fast. Keeping consistent with coupling prayer with fasting has been my biggest issue, but I'm still pressing through to gain a better prayer life. Some days are harder than others bc I have so much on my plate, but I do my best to carve out that time for God even if it's NOT always consistent. Everyone, just keep going and strive NOT to focus on everything you think you're doing wrong but if you know your giving God your best, I know he's satisfied! Life isn't perfect and we're def NOT perfect! Therefore, we should always remind ourselves that only the sacrifice of Jesus alone makes anything we do worthy.

Hey I'm late with this but I'm chiming in with all my sisters in sync! Be honest with yourself and really examine/evaluate the choices your making to facilitate the chaos you DON'T WANT and make faith choices to just plain STOP cold turkey as you pray for God's strength and direction. Next, replace those poor habits with wholesome ones such as mediating more on God's word in the areas you know your struggling with. change your thinking, change your life! This won't be a quick fix dear, but gradually as you keep praying and feasting on God's Word you will start to desire new and better things and think differently. Maybe start with your concordance which is normally the back of one's Bible to look up subject matters. Lastly, be patient with hearing God's voice bc this takes time! God isn't a genie in a bottle and you have to build your intimacy with him 1st like any relationship. The closer we get to him, the clearer and more we'll hear from him. I'm right there with you gurl! God speaks in many ways so STAY OPEN! For me, it's been sometimes tho dreams or if I'm on you-tube through that where it's been direct confirmation tho a message heard or through another person. I'm still waiting on even more ways for God to speak to me but I used to get frustrated and now I've had to train myself to be patient and strive to filter out all unnecessary distractions. All that being said, keep praying and just know I'm touching/agreeing with you in faith.

I know I'm all late with this, but hang in there gurl! We've all had those days and it gets better. Fasting can be an emotional rollacoster ride sometimes so don't get discouraged. Keep your focus on God and other goals that need prioritizing in your life right now, whether spiritual or natural. Hopefully today was much better and days after that even MORE better in Jesus name.

Hey Alexus, hope your fasting journey is going strong! I always seem to get really hungry that last hour. I just checked my phone and I don't have Google photos but that's OK. I will figure out how to post my photo soon. I don't give up that easily! Thank you for sharing that info.

Sorry guys I'm not that tech savy, but everytime I go to upload the saved pic from my phone to my One-Drive and post my pic, it keeps showing no record of being saved. I will try to upload again later. By the way, Alexus, you look beautiful! And Tracy, I see your lovely face all the time on you-tube and you guys are both twinses with being fashionistas. I like your style!

That's OK gurl! You right on time, just jump right in! Your made a GREAT START JUST STARTING! We're in this together so keep going with your fast and you can always catch up on the specifics later on whenever your time allots.

THANK YOU ALL for the wonderful encouragement and it's awesome to be covered in prayer! I will be covering you guys in mine as well during these next 21 days. God Bless you all and stay focused on Christ.
