WHAT FASTING OFFERS (8): ESTABLISHMENT IN RIGHTEOUSNESS
… and thy righteousness shall go before thee; …
Isaiah 58:8 (KJV)
Amplified puts it this way: your righteousness (your rightness, your justice, and your right relationship with God) shall go before you [conducting you to peace and prosperity]. Fasting establishes you in righteousness because you cannot approach Yahweh in sin. And righteousness is not just who we are but what we do. I John 3:7 says, ‘Little children, let no man deceive you: he that doeth righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.’ Fasting helps you establish the culture of doing righteousness. When one does not live a life of consecrational fasting, his/her life will be filled with uncleanness and filth of all manner. Though he/she may have genuinely at one time confessed the lordship of HaMashiach over his/her life but because he/she has refused to work out his/her salvation with fear and trembling (see Philippians 2:12), he/she cannot exercise dominion over sin and unrighteousness. Yahushua saw this when He said in Matthew 6:16 “Moreover when ye fast”. Fasting offers you establishment in righteousness.
When you are established in righteousness, it provokes a lot of chain reactions in your life. Isaiah 54:14 says, ‘In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.’ Being established in righteousness removes you far from oppression. Whether it is oppression by Satan and the gates of hell or by wicked and unreasonable men, you are removed far from oppression. Being established in righteousness disables fear in your spirit. You begin to live as though the devil doesn’t exist any more. The strength of the devil is a lifestyle of sin and unrighteousness. Fear brings bondage. Fear magnets death (see Hebrews 2:15). But as you are established in righteousness you are far removed from terror. Terror is barred from your life. Instead, you become the terroriser.
Being established in righteousness brings you to the peace that surpasses all understanding. Your life is established in the rest of Yahweh. Then you enjoy supernatural prosperity. The power to make wealth is released upon you. All these are what a life of righteousness affords you and it takes a life of consistent consecrational fasting to come to that point where you are established in righteousness. That is why it is almost impossible to make a mark in the sands of time without a lifestyle of consistent consecrational fasting adventure. As you observe this kind of fasting lifestyle, your flesh is constantly mortified empowering your spirit-man to be in full control. You shall not fail!
REMEMBER: Fasting establishes you in righteousness.
PRAYER: Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for Your Word to me today. I ask for the grace to be on key with the revelations You are giving me on fasting in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
PROPHETIC RELEASE: You shall not be a hearer only but a doer of the work in the name of Yahushua HaMashiach Amen!
