How much fasting is enough to receive blessings?

We humans have been on a wild ride recently. With the virus in many countries and the implications which follow, there have been feelings of uncertainty and worry. While we may not know the end from the beginning, the Lord does. He tells us that if we are prepared, we shall not fear. Even if we are prepared, I think there is a little bit of worry only because we don’t know what to expect. These events could result in lost employment, late bills, lack of food or childcare and a host of other issues. All these things would be very good reasons to plead with the Lord for help in a fast.

President Nelson invited us to fast as a global community of believers on March 29th and then in General Conference, he asked us to join together again on Good Friday, to fast as a world for this situation to be remedied, people to be blessed and economies to be strengthened. I cannot imagine in the least what kind of power this call to action can bring.

Any amount of fasting will bring blessings; to they who go without food and water, a greater increase of the Holy Ghost and then with the offerings paid, those who stand in need of temporal help. Both receive blessings. When we have a deep struggle that tears at our soul, I do not believe we should expect to fast once and have everything be righted. Some struggles of a lifetime might need fasting over a lifetime. There are numerous afflictions that will require patience and dedication to a solution that with fasting over a period of time, can strengthen the petitioners until deliverance.

The Lord said, “Is not this the fast that I have chosen? to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go free, and that ye break every yoke?” (Isa. 58:6) He gives us the solution to overcoming our challenges whether immediately or over time.

Every fast, however large or small the sacrifice, merits blessings of increased power or strength and closeness to the Savior. Elder Robert K. Dellenbach said, “Obeying the law of the fast is another form of sacrifice. The Lord asks us to set aside one Sunday a month to fast for two meals. We are invited to contribute the money saved on the cost of those two meals to the Church so it can assist those in need. Fasting and contributing a generous offering have a refining effect upon the soul. President Spencer W. Kimball stated, “Upon practicing the law of the fast, one finds a personal well-spring of power to overcome self-indulgence and selfishness.”1

I was impressed by the many declarations of faith and hope as we united with our brothers and sisters of all faiths in the worldwide fasts which President Nelson called for. I look forward to seeing even more miracles occur as we continue to unite in prayer and fasting.

  • Individuals should exercise extreme caution in the investment landscape, as numerous fraudulent investment companies and deceptive recovery firms operate globally. The difficulty in withdrawing funds from trading accounts, or the experience of complete financial loss, is unfortunately a common occurrence. These situations often involve sophisticated schemes designed to exploit unsuspecting investors. For example, Ponzi schemes promise exceptionally high returns with minimal risk, attracting investors who subsequently lose their principal investments when the scheme collapses. Another common tactic involves fraudulent brokers who manipulate trading platforms or provide false information to induce losses. Furthermore, many victims fall prey to scam recovery firms that promise to retrieve stolen funds but instead demand upfront fees without delivering on their promises. These firms often operate anonymously and lack any legitimate regulatory oversight. MARS TECH RECOVERY GURUs offers guidance and assistance to individuals who have experienced such financial losses. Our services encompass a comprehensive assessment of the situation, identification of the perpetrators, and the pursuit of legal avenues for fund recovery. This process may involve collaborating with law enforcement agencies, regulatory bodies, and legal professionals to build a robust case for restitution. It is crucial to remember that recovering stolen funds requires patience, diligence, and a thorough understanding of the legal processes involved. While MARS TECH RECOVERY GURUs strives to provide effective solutions, the success of any recovery effort is dependent on various factors, including the nature of the fraud, the availability of evidence, and the cooperation of relevant authorities. Therefore, prospective clients should approach the process with realistic expectations and a commitment to full transparency and cooperation.

  • SMART CONTRACT EXPLOIT RECOVERY HIRE DUNAMIS CYBER SOLUTION

    Our well-established mining corporation in New Zealand suffered a devastating loss of NZD 10,000,000 due to a fake gold mine investment. The situation began when we were approached by a group presenting a promising gold mining venture in the South Island. They provided impressive reports, detailed business plans, and forged documents that seemed legitimate. Confident in the opportunity, we decided to invest a significant amount of capital.At first, everything appeared legitimate. We had meetings with the so-called project leaders, and their presentations were convincing. The location, projected returns, and even the legal paperwork seemed sound. We were assured that the project would yield high returns, making it a perfect opportunity to expand our business. However, doubts started to arise when we sent a team to visit the mining site.What they found was shocking. There was no gold mine, and the site bore no resemblance to what had been described. The people we had been dealing with were unreachable, and communication abruptly stopped. It became clear we had fallen victim to a well-organized scam, leaving us with a substantial financial loss.Realizing the gravity of the situation, I knew we had to act fast.

  • CRYPTOCURRENCY RECOVERY FIRM \ FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY.

    I, Dr. Katherine Ingram, had always been committed to giving my best to my patients in Melbourne, Australia. But everything changed when I was suddenly hit with a medical malpractice lawsuit. The stress and anxiety that came with the legal battle left me feeling overwhelmed, and I was desperate for a solution. In my search for help, I found “MedLegal Solutions,” a firm that promised a quick and easy resolution for just $27,000 AUD. They assured me they would handle everything swiftly, easing my burden. Desperate to resolve the situation, I handed over the money, trusting them to take care of the rest. However, as the weeks turned into months, I heard nothing. Calls went unanswered, emails went ignored, and I began to feel more and more helpless. It became clear that something was wrong, and I realized I had been deceived. The more I tried to contact them, the more I found myself being ignored. I soon understood that I was much deeper than I had initially feared. That’s when I turned to Folkwin Expert Recovery for help. From the moment I contacted them, they sprang into action. They immediately began investigating MedLegal Solutions and quickly uncovered a massive web of deceit. It turned out that MedLegal Solutions wasn’t just an incompetent firm; it was part of an elaborate scam. They were operating under multiple false identities across Sydney, Brisbane, and regional Victoria, targeting vulnerable individuals like myself. Folkwin Expert Recovery didn’t just uncover the fraud, they took it one step further. They worked tirelessly with authorities in Melbourne to track down and dismantle the fraudulent operation. They didn’t rest until MedLegal Solutions was shut down for good, ensuring that no one else would fall victim to their schemes. Thanks to their expert recovery efforts, I was able to recover every single cent of my $27,000.This entire ordeal was a wake-up call for me.
