Are You Ready for the Journey?

Mar 53 min read

John 13:36-38 (NLT)"Simon Peter asked, 'Lord, where are you going?' And Jesus replied, 'You can’t go with me now, but you will follow me later.' 'But why can’t I come now, Lord?' he asked. 'I’m ready to die for you.' Jesus answered, 'Die for me? I tell you the truth, Peter—before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me.'”🔗 Read More

The End of the Fast, The Start of the Journey

You’ve reached Day 21 of The Gentlemen’s Fast.

You Did It!!!

Studies show that it takes 21 days to create a new habit, and you’ve made it this far. My hope is that spending time with God has now become a daily habit in your life—one that you’ll continue beyond this fast.

Although the official fast is done, if you feel empowered, let’s keep going. I’ll be posting 20 more days of fasting material to help you strengthen your connection with God, solidify this habit, and continue transforming your life.

So, the real question: Are you ready for the journey ahead?

Peter thought he was ready to follow Jesus—even to death. But Jesus knew Peter’s heart better than Peter did. Just like Peter, we may believe we’re ready to walk this path, but what happens after the fast?

Will you go right back to the things that pulled you away from God before? Or will you use this fast as a foundation to go deeper, seeking more of Him and less of you?

Will You Stay Connected or Disconnect?

Fasting should make you hungry for God, not just for answers.

After my first fast, I realized I didn’t want to go back to how things were—I wanted more of God. When you experience His presence, His guidance, and His provision, you begin to understand:

The world can’t fix what it broke.

God is the only true source of restoration.

Fasting isn’t just about what you give up—it’s about what you gain.

But here’s the challenge—the enemy knows you too.

Just like God studies you to bless you, the enemy studies you to break you. That’s why it’s important to remain connected to God and not treat Him like a temporary fix.

Matthew 12:26 reminds us, “So if Satan fights against himself, how can his kingdom last?” The enemy wants to keep you bound, but when you truly follow God, no enemy can touch you.

Prepare for the Next Step

If you want to walk in God’s promises, you must die—not physically, but spiritually to the flesh.

Cut out the things that allowed the enemy access to your life.
Create new habits that align with God’s will.
Confuse the enemy by refusing to fall back into old patterns.

When you switch up your walk, the enemy doesn’t know what’s coming next. Instead of calling your struggles “attacks,” you’ll start recognizing them as tests—opportunities for God to elevate you.

The Journey Continues

This isn’t the end—it’s just the beginning. If you’re hungry for more, stay connected. We’re not stopping at Day 21.

We’re going to Day 40 with more fasting material.

Then, we'll be stepping into our Gentlemen’s A.C.T.S. to sustain us through the rest of the year.

Follow the site, stay engaged on social media, and let’s continue this journey together.
