Day One Fasting and prayer
In Genesis it shows us that God clothed Adam.
Bible text: Gen 3:21 (ESV) And the LORD God made for Adam and for his wife garments of skins and clothed them.
Now one question we need to ask ourselves is why did God need to clothe them after they created a garment for themselves in order to cover up.
According to scripture their garment was unable to cover them because their nakedness was too great only Gods garment was able to cover them as itโs more powerful than their nakedness.
This means that as human beings our resources are not enough
scripture of the day:
Zec 3:4 (ESV) And the angel said to those who were standing before him, โRemove the filthy garments from him.โ And to him he said, โBehold, I have taken your iniquity away from you, and I will clothe you with pure vestments.โ
1. For bringing you at the first day of our fasting.

equity (of character or act); specifically (Christian) justification: - righteousness.
4: Pray for the Lord to strengthen you to keep on the garment of righteousness.
2Ti 2:22 (ESV) So flee youthful passions and pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart.
Rom 8:26 (ESV) Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.
* Father give me the ability to overcome my weakness.
* Father give me the ability to live beyond the limitations of my flesh in the name of Jesus.
5: Pray for the Lord to give you strength to show forth your righteous presence in my life in the name of Jesus.
Luk 6:43-44 (ESV) โFor no good tree bears bad fruit, nor again does a bad tree bear good fruit, 44 for each tree is known by its own fruit. For figs are not gathered from thornbushes, nor are grapes picked from a bramble bush.
May the Lord give you more strength ๐
