The Ultimate Daniel Fast 2017

Day 19 for me.... staying strong, and feeling strong!!

Praying for all of you who are fasting, and for all of you are thinking about fasting to persevere. The side effects = growing closer to God, and having awesome quiet times with the Lord.

Day 16 for me... having good time with the Lord in the morning, and feeling more energetic.

Lyn, you can stuff it but just with freggies!!

I am on Day 15... I just had lentil meatballs with spaghetti. Yum!

Lyn, God is so faithful to us.

Day 14 for me... still going strong and got my hubby on board doing the fast with me! We are fasting for him to get a good job that he will like, where he will be respected and that we can finish helping our daughter out with tuition.

Day 15....
Am still going strong...
It is amazing how when I think..."Stuff it" God gives me a scripture or something comes up in the book and I think...Oh just another day....lol

Day 13 and still fasting!!

Day 14 and still strong....woohoo

Day 12 and going strong!!

Great advise Pam.....

Moonstream, thank you for the prayers. God may be prompting you to go in another direction with your work, but it may not be during your fast but afterwards. I would be wise to have another job lined up, and God will give you direction with that, too. I eat lots of leftovers... I made a pot of lentil soup which will last all week. Also, you can have leftovers for lunch. You can, also, make a double recipe and freeze leftovers. Then, thaw them and eat later. Go to the health food store and look for cereals without sugar, then add fruit and you have a quick breakfast. Or make fruit smoothies with protein powder with no sweetener or whey for extra protein.

Go Moonstream....
If God moves you he will already have something else in place and will not fail to provide....

Praying for you both Pamapple. Day 4? So far so good. I don't usually cook so planning/prepping 3 meals day x 7 days is a real change for me. This time hubby doing too so its been so nice to start and end our day in Bible readings. Really prompting me to want to step away from my job which involves lots of travel. My fear is loss of my income but I'm trying to trust God to provide. I'm sure we'll save $ on eating out and alcohol consumption during this fast. Hmmm.

Day 9 and all is well with eating and finding time to spend with God. Praying for all of you to stay motivated to continue on the fast and prayer.

I totally agree with you.....
My husbands company restructured over a year ago and while I totally agreed with why they were doing it and it wasn't about the money they lost staff they didn't want to lose......really wasn't handled well at all.....

We had to restructure at the cafe in october otherwise we wouldn't still have a business however that wasn'rt about more money...just about staying in business....once we got rid of the said satff person the business instantly picked up....

Thank you, Lyn. It just isn't right what these businesses do to hard-working productive people. It's all about the money.

Praying Pam.....

We have a lot of that going in our country as well....They call it restructuring.....well they have a new fancy name for it now but thats what i call it....it kills people

Way to go, Lyn! My husband lost his job due to corporate cuts.. please pray for him to get a job that he will enjoy, where he will be respected, and that will be closer to home as his last job had him driving an hour away.

God is totally working Pam...I am loving seeing whats happening...

I have also written a sermon for church for the end of the month....woohoo

Day 3 and still going strong... When we put the time into prayer and fasting, God will draw close to us.

Lyn, God is working!

Go Jennifer.....Praying....

Moonstream....woohoo...

I am doing really well....day 5 almost over.....Loving the videos Kristen sends out each day and also this years theme...

Moonstream, You have learned and carried out this healthy lifestyle! It should be no problem for you to slip right into the Daniel Fast this time.

Jennifer, I strongly suggest for you to sign up on www.ultimatedanielfast.com to watch daily motivational videos, get inspiration and healthy recipes. The support there has kept me going on this spiritual journey.

Praying.
I did it last year and I really enjoyed learning to shop the produce isles and make new things. This year I plan to carry these new recipes and ideas into the new year.

I am starting Jan 8th and need prayer. Not sure my heart is where my brain is. It's like I want this (64lbs to lose) but it's scary and it's work. I truly want to find out why I have been holding on to this layer of fat. Discipline is my downfall and I want to beat this demon attached to me.

Sounds awesome Pam....

go Lyn!

I am just starting the fast today. So far I have eaten flaxseed, flaxseed oil and lemon with an apple. For lunch, I had a salad with carrots, celery, avocado, tomatoes and mixed greens.

Yep...I am going to do both this year....it just means the one I started yesterday will be extended for a bit longer...
Am loving what God is doing and it is only day 2,....

I will be starting tomorrow but adding in meat and fish as I have a limited diet due to food allergies.

Hi - is anyone starting on Jan 8 (-28?)

woohoo...yay Pam.....
I only started today but I guess that may line me up with you guys seeing I am a day ahead....lol
Am already amazied at what God has shown me today in my time with Him....
Looking forward to the next 20 days....
