Is it sacrifice\u2026 or obedience? In this message, I share the personal story of how a 21-day fast led my wife and me to adopt our daughter\u2014and how obedience to God brought both blessing and unexpected opposition. Drawing from 1 Kings 18 and the story of Elijah, we explore what it means to fast for something you cannot yet see\u2026 and how God prepares you before He uses you. In this video: \u2022 Why we fast \u2022 Obedience vs. comfort \u2022 When breakthrough doesn\u2019t look like you expected \u2022 The battle that often follows blessing \u2022 How God changes hearts over time Sometimes fasting isn\u2019t about getting something from God. It\u2019s about allowing God to reshape you for something greater. If you\u2019re seeking clarity, direction, or breakthrough, this message will challenge and encourage you. \u2014 Dr. Nick Circolone ","author_name":"Health Chatt","author_url":"http:\/\/drnick.libsyn.com\/website","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/40232105\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/198976890"}
