ARE YOU PICKING UP AN ATTITUDE?

ARE YOU PICKING UP AN ATTITUDE?

If you are fasting and praying and becoming intimate with Me you are. You are developing and ATTITUDE OF ANGER. Angry at what sin is doing to the innocent. Angry at people  being abused in My name and in My house. Angry at children being molested. Take your anger out on the enemy intercede all the more with fervor. "Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your wrath:" Ephesians 4:26 (KJV)

Your are developing an ATTITUDE OF BROKENNESS over the pain and suffering of the poor. Broken over your own failures, that have wounded others. Broken over the neglected child, the starving widow, and the isolation of the shut in.    Brokenness leads to true humility. When you are in an attitude of humility spiritual gifts are imparted. "Humble yourselves in (My) sight ... and (I) shall lift you up."  James 4:10 (KJV)

You are developing an ATTITUDE OF DOING. A mindset that pulls pastors down from their ivory tower pulpits into the streets, weeping as they cloth the naked and feed the hungry.  Leading from a kneeling position washing the feet of the saints is a must in My kingdom. An intimacy with Me sends you forth in tears and returns you singing. "They who sow in tears shall reap in joy and singing. [6] He who goes forth bearing seed and weeping at needing his precious supply of grain for sowing shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him."  Psalm 126:5-6 (AMP)

 The routine of serving can make one callous, doing the same thing as usual day after day makes the ground hard. Taking the same path over and over packs the ground hard so nothing can grow. When you add fasting to the equation it breaks up the fallow ground by breaking the routine of same. "Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap in mercy; break up your fallow ground: for it is time to seek the Lord , till he come and rain righteousness upon you."Hosea 10:12 (KJV) 

When the soil of your heart is soft, I am able to sow new fresh seed, renewed vision, love and zeal into it. The reason fasting is so easily dismissed as unnecessary  is that a routine becomes easier to accomplish on your own, without seeking Me. The enemy knows that if he can keep you on the treadmill long enough, you will be unaware you are exercising with no results. The enemy knows, that unless ... " (I) build the house, they labour in vain that build it: except the (I) keep the city, the watchman waketh but in vain." Psalm 127:1 (KJV)

Today I am urging you to pick up an attitude, My attitude, meet me in our secret place.
