DAY 20: How to Host the Holy Ghost
I believe with all my heart the Holy Spirit is looking for people in whom he can deposit major revelation concerning the future. But before this can happen, we’ve got to understand all revelation comes from the Holy Spirit. That’s why the Bible said, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him” (1 Corinthians 2:9 NKJV).
If you climb up high enough in the realm of God, He will open the windows and show you things not visible from where you are now. The Bible describes Noah’s ark as having three levels. I believe it is symbolic and can be compared to this fast. When you fast, you are taking your relationship with God to another level. He will speak to you things He would not reveal in a casual relationship.
God wants to give you a revelation of who you are and who you can be when His Spirit is upon you! This fast has been a journey up that mountain to a place of revelation and deeper understanding. Press in. Ask your questions. Take time to listen to His voice and meditate on His Word.
Read Revelation 3 and 1 Corinthians 2. Is God speaking to you through these verses today?
YOUR TURN
Take a moment and think about the ways you feel you have grown over the last 20 days.
What are some of the most important things you have heard the Lord say to you?
FINAL THOUGHTS
You are now just steps away from the finish line, and joy comes in the morning! Are you hearing the Lord’s voice more clearly? Are you sensing His presence?
FASTING TIP OF THE DAY
Start making plans today for your daily walk when the fast is over. Carve out time and space for prayer, God’s Word, worship, church participation, and finding community with other believers. Don’t let this strong flame burn out when the fast is over.
