Today is January 4th, 2021. 12:48 am
I just deleted my social media applications from my phone and I will be fasting from social media over the next 21 days. I came to this decision after watching Transformation church’s latest sermon, The Big Three - Giving, Prayer, and Fasting.
I know that this will be a great opportunity to connect and get closer to God and those around me in preparation for this next year.

Yo, I had this crazy vivid dream about water. I was taking a nap at a park that had an active lake or water outlet. At one point I got into a blanket like boat and continued to nap on the water. You know how dreams be making impossible things possible bro. Anyway - When I did that, the current took me out deeper and the waters began to get choppy. I had an assumption that it was more like a ride simulation that would take me back to shore so I didn’t initially panic, but the waves began to strengthen.
My sleep turned into a coward, and I braced for submersion. Eyes closed, I anticipated an impact that never came. After a few seconds of nothing, I opened my eyes to see the waves standing still in the air.
Perfect curves that served as doorways all throughout a deep blue sea. Suddenly these waters became a museum that exhibited wonder and the impossible that had to be explored.
Lowkey, I was walking on water bro. Don't ask me why. By no means am I making any comparisons lol.
Not a bad way to start a fast right? I'm excited about these upcoming weeks.
I'll be doing this reading plan over the next 21 days.
Today’s Topic of Prayer and Fasting: Vision
What is God speaking to you today about Vision?
How will your growth in this area affect those around you?
What commitment will you make today to grow in your ability to seek God’s vision for your life?
“Then the Lord said to me, “Write my answer plainly on tablets so that a runner can carry the correct message to others.”
Habakkuk 2:2
There are unique ways to share my message. I pray that the Lord guide my steps and turn my impulses into wisdom throughout this day and forward during this fast. I pray that my clarity leads others to where we all need to be and that our next steps are our most beneficial - spiritually, emotionally & financially. All the -lys.
“When people do not accept divine guidance, they run wild. But whoever obeys the law is joyful.”
Proverbs 29:18
I’ll commit to starting my day with the Lord at 6:30, every morning, and sharing what the Lord tells me too. My hope is that in sharing my journey, you're inspired to celebrate yours and share with others.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, You have promised that if I draw near to You, You will draw near to me. I need more of Your presence today, and I am drawing near to You through prayer, worship, and reading Your Word. I open my heart to you over the next 21 days and ask you to be near to me and change me to be more like you. Today, I am asking that you increase my awareness of your vision for my life and show me the way that I should go.
Peace & Amen.
Have a dope day!
