Cassandra Mack’s Soul Fast 40-Day Challenge
Day 36
Fasting From Negative People
Today’s Fast: Today We Are Fasting from people who are …Gossipers
and Slanderers
My grandmother used to say, “a dog that
carries a bone will surely bring one back.” This was her way of telling me to
be cautions around people who gossip and spread rumors about other people.
Gossip is hurtful in two ways. It hurts the person being gossiped about because
it assassinates their character, stirs up strife, causes confusion and
misunderstandings and spreads private information that may or may not be true.
Gossip also hurts the one who is doing the gossiping because when you gossip
you hurt your own integrity and credibility.
Today,
take a step back and assess your relationships with people who gossip and
slander others, so that you can evaluate whether or not you should come out
from among them. *****And if you are in a position where you are not yet able to
come out from among them physically, then come out from among them spiritually
and psychologically by creating some emotional distance and making sure you put
on the whole armor of God before dealing with them.
If
you are find that you have a tendency to gossip and slander others, ask God to
search your heart and renew a right spirit in you.
Today Is A New Day
It’s new because the sun has risen this morning.
It’s new because you have arisen to meet it.
And the risen version of you has
the power and capacity to rise to the occasion and handle your business for
today.
Remind Yourself: … “Fire goes out
without wood, and quarrels disappear when gossip stops.” (Proverbs 26: 20)
PRAYER: You can pray the
scripture from today’s message or you can pray about anything that’s on your
heart.
