'When Nothing is Working' by Sherane Heron



So you finally start to "dream big" but when attempting to pursue it-absolutely NOTHING you do is working. You attempt so many marketing campaigns, designs, events and/or relationships but the only thing you hear are *crickets*. We are simply ineffective and find ourselves going crazy! You begin second-guessing yourself, your vision and even God.

Big dreams require so much more than church every Sunday and a 5-minute prayer every morning. The level of our assignments reflect the level of our spirits. Struggle occurs when we attempt to operate in purpose and fulfill our assignments on a lower [spiritual] level than required. Mark 9:14 shares the story about the disciples attempting to cast out a demon without the necessary power. As a result, there was plenty chaos and confusion until Jesus showed up. After Jesus successfully delivered the demon-possessed boy the disciples asked him "Why couldn't we drive it out?" and Jesus replied "This kind can come out only through prayer and fasting" Mark 9: 29.

In today's society people need to feel love and inspiration more than ever. People are losing hope, committing suicide and becoming professional criminals just to feed their families. Regardless of your gift- your purpose is to HEAL people with love and inspiration [Rd Isaiah 61]. In order for us to fulfill this purpose- we must be completely filled with the power of God. Due to so many personal issues, your followers, supporters, clients, partners, customers, employees, sponsors are in dire need of healing, love, hope and freedom. There is an urgent search to FEEL healing, love, hope and freedom at your place of business, on your website or through your book. People simply want to feel Love and God is Love [1 John 4:8]. 

Today's society is getting worse and we are currently experiencing Matthew 24, so therefore our purpose requires more power. We cannot fulfill today's purpose on yesterdays spiritual regimen. In order for God to increase our territory and elevate our platform- our spiritual-man must elevate. This only occurs when we starve our flesh and feed our spirit. Our flesh is filled with so many issues from the past- we don't even have the capability to carry the power that God wants to fill us with [Rd Mark 2:22]. For this reason, we must FAST & PRAY in order to elevate spiritually and handle our God-sent assignments.

Being ineffective also causes a lack of respect from those witnessing our journey. When we say one thing, but people are witnessing the exact opposite- we lose credibility. In Mark 9:14, the people argued with the disciples because of the lack of respect. It says, "When they came to the other disciples, they saw a large crowd around them and the teachers of the law arguing with them. As soon as all the people saw Jesus, they were overwhelmed with wonder and ran to greet Him." The people respected Jesus and He didn't even have to speak. God gives us the opportunity to be filled with Holy Spirit so the people we encounter don't see us but rather the God within us. That's how we receive real honor and respect.

If this article has spoken to you in anyway, you may want to consider fasting for spiritual elevation and I guarantee this spiritual elevation will overflow into natural elevation. While there are many fasts to consider, here is a link to all information in regards to the Daniel Fast- which is a great to include in your lifestyle- Daniel Fast
