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 FOUND OUT ABOUT MY WIFE’S INFIDELITY USING GRAYHATHACKS CONTRACTOR

    I was in a situation that I never thought I’d find myself in. My wife and I had been together for five years, and I had noticed some changes in her behavior lately. She was distant, secretive, and always had her phone glued to her hand. I tried talking to her, but she’d just brush me off, saying it was work stress. I knew deep down it was more than that. I couldn’t just ignore the gut feeling that something was off.

    So, I did what any desperate, confused, and heartbroken person would do – I started looking for answers. That’s when I stumbled upon the world of hackers and investigators. I first came across the Beviant Group of Hackers. They promised me the moon and stars, but all they delivered was a bunch of empty promises and a lighter wallet. I was about to give up hope when my cousin, who had been a silent witness to my pain, suggested I try Grayhathacks Contractor.

    It’s no exaggeration that it was the best decision I ever made. I was skeptical at first, I’ll admit. I mean, I had just been burned by another group, so how could I trust them? But something about their approach was different. They were professional, empathetic, and above all, discreet. They assured me that they’d help me find the truth without invading my wife’s privacy any more than necessary.

    They set up a plan to track her movements, intercept her calls, and read her messages and emails. The first few days were nerve-wracking, but then the information started to trickle in. It was like they had a map of her life laid out in front of them. They were so precise with their work, it was unbelievable. They pinpointed her location down to the minute, showed me the calls she was making, and even provided me with transcripts of her chats.

    What they uncovered was like a punch in the gut. My wife had been fooling around with a coworker, someone she claimed was just a friend. They had planned vacation trips together, all under the guise of work. The nerve of her. But here’s the kicker – she had been using our joint account to fund these little escapades. The betrayal was unreal.

    The confrontation was hard, but with the solid proof in my hand, I couldn’t deny the truth anymore. It was a mix of anger, sadness, and relief, really. I finally had the answers I needed to move forward. And even though it’s been a tough road, I’m starting to pick up the pieces of my life, thanks to Grayhathacks Contractor.

    If you’re in a similar situation, I can’t recommend them enough. If ever in need you can reach them via email at grayhathacks@contractor.net
