How much fasting is enough to receive blessings?

We humans have been on a wild ride recently. With the virus in many countries and the implications which follow, there have been feelings of uncertainty and worry. While we may not know the end from the beginning, the Lord does. He tells us that if we are prepared, we shall not fear. Even if we are prepared, I think there is a little bit of worry only because we don’t know what to expect. These events could result in lost employment, late bills, lack of food or childcare and a host of other issues. All these things would be very good reasons to plead with the Lord for help in a fast.

President Nelson invited us to fast as a global community of believers on March 29th and then in General Conference, he asked us to join together again on Good Friday, to fast as a world for this situation to be remedied, people to be blessed and economies to be strengthened. I cannot imagine in the least what kind of power this call to action can bring.

Any amount of fasting will bring blessings; to they who go without food and water, a greater increase of the Holy Ghost and then with the offerings paid, those who stand in need of temporal help. Both receive blessings. When we have a deep struggle that tears at our soul, I do not believe we should expect to fast once and have everything be righted. Some struggles of a lifetime might need fasting over a lifetime. There are numerous afflictions that will require patience and dedication to a solution that with fasting over a period of time, can strengthen the petitioners until deliverance.

The Lord said, “Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?” (Isa. 58:6) He gives us the solution to overcoming our challenges whether immediately or over time.

Every fast, however large or small the sacrifice, merits blessings of increased power or strength and closeness to the Savior. Elder Robert K. Dellenbach said, “Obeying the law of the fast is another form of sacrifice. The Lord asks us to set aside one Sunday a month to fast for two meals. We are invited to contribute the money saved on the cost of those two meals to the Church so it can assist those in need. Fasting and contributing a generous offering have a refining effect upon the soul. President Spencer W. Kimball stated, “Upon practicing the law of the fast, one finds a personal well-spring of power to overcome self-indulgence and selfishness.”1

I was impressed by the many declarations of faith and hope as we united with our brothers and sisters of all faiths in the worldwide fasts which President Nelson called for. I look forward to seeing even more miracles occur as we continue to unite in prayer and fasting.

  • Reviews and comments can be helpful most times. permit me to share that, in the first week of March 2024, I was convinced to invest in a fake Altcoin cryptocurrency platform through someone I connected with on Telegram , which I did but unfortunately after investing my money I discovered I could not withdraw or access my account on the fake platform. Lucky for me, I came across a review on funds recovery and I contacted Coinsrecoveryworldwide Service, and through their help and support I was able to recover my money. Losing money trading crypto can be frustrating but I am happy today that my funds are recovered and I wish to share with you their contacts as i know i am not alone on this boat, nobody deserves to be in such situation.

  • My name is Rachel Frye and I want to give this testimony in respect of Dr. Odunga who made me win $2 Million Dollars in the Lottery by matching the 5 numbers for me. I am happy to be out of financial debt and be able to help my family in this seasonal period of fun and cheer. I contacted Dr. Odunga through Whats-App (+2348167159012) when I told him to help me win the Mega Millions and He told me that it would be spiritually checked if I will win the Lottery. When he informed me that I will not be able to win the Jackpot but I will win a huge amount in the lottery I was not completely sad but had great faith in him. I live in Freeland, Saginaw County, Michigan and I would say it was pretty hard to send him the money for the spell before he gave me the winning numbers to play. He sent me the numbers and I played. The next morning after the drawing, I matched the five white balls in the Aug. 4 drawing to win $1 million: 11-30-45-52-56. Thanks to the Megaplier X2, my prize was multiplied to $2 million. Thank You Dr Odunga for this wonderful experience with you. You too can contact Dr. Odunga at his Whats-App +2348167159012 or Email: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com

  • A few weeks ago, I had noticed my wife acting increasingly suspicious and secretive, and it was as if she knew my every move. I realized that my laptop had become annoyingly slow and would randomly redirect me to unfamiliar websites on its own. My phone would sometimes light up with notifications that I hadn’t received. I’m not the most tech-savvy person, but even I knew that something was off. That’s when I stumbled upon the term ‘spyware’ and the horrifying reality of how it could be used to invade someone’s privacy.
    Desperate to know the truth, I found myself in a dark corner of the internet, searching for a way to get to the bottom of my suspicions. That’s when I came across a review for GrayHat Hacks Contractor, a team of ethical hackers well versed in hacking and spywares. I sent them an email detailing my situation and the signs that had led me to suspect my wife. To my surprise, they responded within minutes, offering a free consultation and assuring me of their confidentiality.
    They explained their process and the tools they would use to scan my devices for any signs of intrusion. They were incredibly thorough, explaining the different types of spyware that could be planted and the ways they could be hidden. The actual process of detection and removal was done remotely. They provided clear, step-by-step instructions on how to give them secure access to my iPhone and laptop.
    The results were shocking. Within a few hours, they had found and removed not one, but multiple instances of spyware on both my phone and computer. The extent of the violation was staggering. My wife had been tracking my location, reading my messages, and even listening in on my calls. I was devastated, not just because of the betrayal, but because I had been living under constant surveillance in what I had thought was a sanctuary of privacy.
    Armed with the evidence, I approached my wife with a heavy heart. Through tears and anger, she admitted to installing the spyware, driven by her own insecurities and suspicions. She confessed to an affair that had been going on while I was away on business, a classic case of projection. Turns out that she was the one that was cheating. GrayHat Hacks Contractor not only removed the spywares but also taught me how to protect my devices and privacy in the future.
    Our relationship is now a work in progress, filled with healing and rebuilding trust. The pain of her infidelity still lingers, but with the truth out in the open, we can begin to move forward. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you suspect your privacy is being invaded, I urge you to consider contacting GrayHat Hacks Contractor.
    You can contact them for a consultation through email at grayhathacks@contractor.net or reach out via WhatsApp at +1 (843) 368-3015.

  • CATCHING A SERIAL CHEATER AIDED BY GRAYHATHACKS CONTRACTOR

    I’d been suspecting my husband of cheating on me for quite some time, and the signs were becoming too obvious to ignore. The late nights, the secretive phone calls, the sudden need for ‘space’ – it all added up. But I needed proof, something concrete to confront him with. That’s when I stumbled upon GrayHat Hacks Contractor. I’d read about them online, a group of ethical vigilante hackers who specialize in spying on unfaithful spouses. To be honest, I was skeptical at first, but the positive reviews and testimonials from other men and women who had been in my shoes convinced me to give them a shot.
    I reached out to them, and from the get-go, they were incredibly professional and empathetic. They understood the sensitive nature of my situation and assured me that they would handle everything with the utmost discretion. The process was surprisingly straightforward. They asked for some basic information about my husband’s digital footprint, his emails, social media accounts, and phone number. I provided what I could without feeling like I was crossing any lines.
    It took them a couple of hours while I tried to keep my anxiety in check as I waited for the results. And then, finally, the shocking details of his escapades were uncovered. My husband, it seemed, had not one, but multiple affairs. The details were meticulously presented in a report, complete with timestamps and screenshots of his chats and emails.
    But what really shook me to the core was the date of one of these encounters. It was the day of my mother’s funeral. The day I had buried my best friend, the woman who had given me life and unconditional love. While I was grieving, he was out there, sleeping with some random woman. The guts this mad had made me sick to my stomach. The betrayal was unimaginable. And what was even more painful was discovering that one of the women he was seeing was a close friend of mine. Someone I had confided in, someone I had trusted.
    When I confronted him with the evidence, he had the audacity to deny it at first. But when I showed him the report from GrayHat Hacks Contractor, the look on his face said it all. He couldn’t lie his way out of it anymore. The chat logs, the locations, the dates – it was all there in black and white. He had been leading a double life, right under my nose, and it was all out in the open now.
    I won’t lie; it was one of the hardest moments of my life. But at the same time, I felt a strange sense of relief. I knew I had made the right decision to seek the truth.
    If ever in need of their services you can reach them via email grayhathacks@contractor.net or WhatsApp +1 (843) 368-3015
