Day 3

Day 3: Getting Past Your Quitting Point
Are you ready for a breakthrough unlike anything you've ever experienced before? Remember to continually pray because only God can provide you with the strength, both physically and emotionally, that you will need during these 21 days.

On your third day of fasting, remember:
1. Drink lots of water
2. Chew on some sugar free breath mints or gum
3. Pray for encouragement
4. Avoid smells and other temptations
5. This will be the toughest day of the Fast

Physical Effects:
1. Tongue is coated over fully
2. Hunger pangs increase
3. Cravings are intense at times
4. Ketosis is in full process
5. Noticeable weight loss begins
6. Headaches might still be apparent

Today's Quote:"I have seen people who have never fasted before experience marvelous breakthroughs in their lives. If you are ready to bring supernatural blessings into your life and release the power of God to overcome any situation, begin today making the discipline of fasting a part of your life. God is no respecter of persons what He has done in our church, in the lives of our members, He will do for you when you set your heart to seek Him through fasting."

Thoughts for your Journal:
1. What is that dream inside you that only He can make possible? - My dream is to have my marriage fully healed and restored. Before my husbands unfaithfulness, I never thought that my marriage was on the rocks or had any issues. But evidentialy, my husband was unhappy. He never expressed it to me and so that is where the healing needs to begin. We need to first agree to both work on our marriage and then work on opening up to each other feeling comfortable to tell each other what is truly bothering us. My dream and my promise is a fully restored marriage even better than it was before all of this.
2. What are other people's goals in your accountability group? - My sister is also fasting with me (pop, only), but she is standing in agreement with me of a fully restored marriage. I know she really misses him and is a great person to have standing next to me in this battle.
3. How can you obtain these goals with God's help? - Trust and pray! That is all I can do. I have to trust that he has plans for me and my husband and our marriage. I have taken that step where the line is clearly drawn from not trusting to trusting and that is all I can do. Prayer is also about the only thing I can do. If I didn't pray, then where would I be? Completely lost and hopeless.
