Scripture Reading:

“But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.”

— Isaiah 40:31

��️ MEDITATION

Breakthrough is not always instantaneous; it often requires sustained spiritual momentum. Many believers experience fleeting victories because they lack consistency in fasting and prayer.

Fasting disciplines the flesh, prayer strengthens the spirit, and together they maintain divine momentum. Momentum allows breakthroughs, favor, and provision to compound over time, creating unstoppable spiritual acceleration.

The mystery is that persistence in fasting and prayer keeps the believer in alignment with God, ensuring continuous victories, protection, and favor.
