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.

  • I lost $103,450 with a fake crypto investor. I am Richardson and here is my story. Of course, they advise us to do a good background check before deciding where and when to invest. But they entirely forget that the scammers have a “clean” background record. So you will find all the good reviews and ads about them when you research. Mine was no different. They looked legit and I made my deposits plus other more deposits when chasing my withdrawals. I reached my limits and knew I had to get my money back no matter what. I did some deep searching and finally decided to try out The Exner Hacker at TheexnerhackerATprotonmailDOTcom. Guess who had their total investment in approximately 20 hours. Good thing about this hacker is that they only require the transaction information and hackers address and everything else is on them until the money is fully back. Reach them on their email or Telegram number : (PLUS)1 (917) 384‑3379 to get the help you need with finances and crypto.

  • My name is Nancy Nova, a seasoned Midwife nurse hailing from the bustling streets of New York. With 32 years of dedicated service to the noble profession of nursing and the proud mother of three children—two daughters and a son who has recently turned 18—I have weathered many storms, both in my personal and professional life. However, none tested my resolve quite like the financial challenges that befell me during the tumultuous year of 2023. As the world grappled with the unprecedented chaos wrought by the pandemic, I found myself navigating uncharted waters, struggling to keep afloat amidst the economic turmoil. It was during this time of uncertainty that I was lured by the siren song of online Forex trading platforms, promising lucrative returns that seemed too good to pass up. Blinded by the quick profits, I entrusted my hard-earned savings to a purportedly reputable broker, hoping to secure a brighter financial future for myself and my family. Little did I know that this decision would lead me down a path of deception and despair. The harsh reality of my situation dawned on me on the fateful day of October 11th, 2022, when I discovered that all my invested funds had fallen victim to a sophisticated scam. In a desperate bid to reclaim what was mine, I made several ill-fated attempts that only served to exacerbate my predicament, leaving me wounded and disheartened. However, amidst the loss in the jungle of cryptocurrency, a path emerged in the form of an article from CNN News, detailing the remarkable recovery of Mary Manois’ scammed funds by Cyberpunk Programmers. Intrigued and desperate for a lifeline, I decided to cast my lot once more, placing my trust in the capable hands of these cyber experts.
