I thought of the verses about not paying the sacrifice of fools when I sat down. and then it is like I thought I heard God tell me to surrender food to me when we went up to the front to have an encounter with God, and I said yes Lord, I surrender food to you, Your will be done, not mine, in...

Ecclesiastes 5:1-3 Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. To draw near to listen is better than to offer the sacrifice of fools, for they do not know that they are doing evil. 2 Be not rash with your mouth, nor let your heart be hasty to utter a word before God, for God is in heaven...

there is more hope for a fool than someone who does not bridle his tongue, something like that

I think he was talking to me.

yeah, be slow to speak, that is one that I have had trouble with too. I would have an experience with God, praising Him, and then say that I will do something for Him, and then realize that I spoke out again, I am not supposed to try to impress God, but be impressed by Him. submit to Him, serve...

ok, I guess it was also because I realized that I had appetites. I would pray, and in the middle of the prayer I would start thinking about eating food, especially if food was waiting, and I kept thinking that I was putting food above God. I would bite into food, and take another little bit in...

so I would be scared that I was going to be disobeying God if I ate meat that had been shot, and might have been bled into. or chicken that had the blood vessels in it. because I was trying to abstain from every part of blood.

I am thinking that as a start, it is more important to abstain from things that would cause me to stumble till my faith grows enough to go up to the higher calling of being able to eat all things, but that will only come as Christ gives me a revelation. is this correct? and to reject the extra...

thank you for your feedback on the fasting. it confirms what I have heard from others, but was not certain about.

I guess I was wondering who to listen to. If I abstained, I would be convicted for not being loving and receiving things with thanksgiving, and if I ate, I would be convicted about eating something I thought was unclean.

Thank you for your post. it is definitely encouraging. I sent that in reference to what Stranger said about vows. I am confused about the last two posts.

I want to be willing. I really want to be willing. I had previously, before the fast thing began, had my conscience convicting me whenever I ate food in doubt. I was told to ignore my conscience, and trust God to move my conscience in alignment with His word, and that it was an attack from the...

lately I have been decensitized to it. the sin is that I thought God called me to do a fast that was above me. I said, Yes Lord, and told Him that His will be done, not mine. I added some words to make what I said make certain I would do it. then I thought of my life, and how I could die if I...

thisisnotmyname hey, I was wondering what it meant by direct access denied, or whatever it said in a forum under some people's posts. does it mean it does not want me to try to contact the individual? or that I can not reply to them directly? like I can't reply directly to their post? can I...
