Questions, Answers & Prayer:

What’s a Mordecai-type fast? & what’s it got to do with urgent, deadly, crises in US & in Israel?

God’s sheep return in crisis.

Today is Pearl Harbor Day. On Dec 7, 1941, we had such a crisis in the US, just as we did on Sept 11, 2001: The US was totally unprepared. God’s sheep were lost & opening the door to the devil’s plan to use evil human instruments. Japanese planes killed 2,400, innocent US servicemen in 90 minutes. God uses the devil’s moves to call His sheep back under the Shepherd’s protection by the prayer & fasting of Mordecai.

Mordecai’s in the story of Esther. God’s lost sheep were in captivity & running from God into: darkness, the devil’s plan to destroy & into God’s wrath. God’s sheep were all going to be killed by evil men led by Haman.

God called Mordecai & Esther, the few, to lead the many to pray & fast so: mercy could triumph over judgment & God’s sheep return to the Shepherd.

In crisis God calls the few, Esther & Mordecai, to lead many lost sheep to come back under the Shepherd, through fasting.

God calls me to be a Mordecai?

Yes! Mordecai is like Jesus. If you would be a disciple of Jesus, ask to be a Mordecai.

Can you define a partial fast?

Fasting decreases food intake & increases intake of God’s love, power, goodness & wisdom.

In a water fast you eat nothing & drink only water. In a Spirit led partial fast you decide how much food to decrease (20 to 50% or more up to a water fast).

You & the Spirit decide. A partial fast includes the option to fast on something other than food to help with Biblical priorities: Fasting from social media, entertainment, tv, scrolling etc.

“Father, release Your power, wisdom & goodness upon me. Lead me to fast & pray to bring Your sheep to repentance, revival & to following the light of the Shepherd’s leading. Amen.”
