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.

  • Reclaiming lost or stolen digital assets can be a complex and frustrating process, but with the right expertise and diligence, it is possible to recover what was once thought to be irretrievable. That’s the experience I had when I enlisted the help of Wizard Hilton Cyber Tech, a specialized firm that uses cutting-edge investigative techniques and blockchain forensics to track down and retrieve misappropriated cryptocurrencies and other virtual holdings. After falling victim to an online scam that swindled me out of a sizable Bitcoin investment, I was left feeling helpless and resigned to the fact that my funds were gone forever. However, a colleague referred me to Wizard Hilton, and I was pleasantly surprised by their professionalism and commitment to leaving no stone unturned. Through a meticulous investigation that involved meticulously tracing the flow of my stolen Bitcoin across numerous wallet addresses and exchange platforms, the Wizard Hilton team was able to identify the perpetrators and initiate the legal process to have my assets returned. It was a lengthy and at times painstaking ordeal, but their dogged determination and deep technical expertise in the world of cryptocurrency paid off, and I ultimately had the immense satisfaction of seeing my Bitcoin balance restored. This experience underscores the importance of partnering with seasoned, reputable specialists when dealing with complex digital asset recovery – they possess the specialized knowledge and investigative resources to give victims of crypto-related crimes a fighting chance at reclaiming what is rightfully theirs.

  • LOST MONEY TO FAKE BROKERS? CONTACT→(FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY) FOR ASSIST.

    I’m a fairly tech-savvy guy: I check links for doubles, verify sources, and I never download anything shady. But when a fake wallet update stole $220,000 from me, well-let me tell you-if it happens to you, you’ll realize how easy this is to fall for. It all began with my regular check of my Bitcoin wallet: a notification popped up, requesting me to install an “important security update.” It was absolutely legitimate in appearance-same branding, same language, even the same interface. Wanting to stay ahead with security, I clicked install without a second thought. The very moment the update finished, my wallet locked me out. I tried my usual credentials—nothing. Reset password? The link wouldn’t send. My heart pounded as, on another device, I refreshed my balance: zero. Panic set in. My mind raced, wondering: Did I just lose everything? My $220,000-years of careful investments-gone because of one click? I felt sick. I tried reaching out to the wallet’s official support, but they confirmed my worst fear: I had installed malware that stole my keys. They couldn’t do anything. In desperation, I went to r/Crypto Advice on Reddit. The post was raw, frantic, practically begging for help. Amidst the tsunami of condolences and warnings from folks saying my funds were definitely gone, one reply stood out: “Try FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY. They’ve helped people in your situation before.” Skeptical but desperate, I called, and they called back instantly-reassuring. No impossible promises were made, but they said they would do everything in their power. In hours, they traced where my funds had been rerouted; they were not lost yet. The waiting was torture, but the updates they were giving me kept me sane. Then came that email: “We’ve recovered your funds.” I couldn’t believe it. The feeling of logging into my wallet and having the full balance was just unreal. My financial future had been hanging by a thread, and FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY pulled me back from the edge. Beyond just recovery, they took the time to walk me through security best practices, teaching me how to identify fake updates and secure my investments against future attacks. Lesson learned: even the best investors get duped. But thanks to FOLKWIN EXPERT RECOVERY, this wasn’t a wipeout.

  • Finding a trustworthy and reliable recovery company is difficult because scammers are very clever and will hide their tracks.I say trustworthy and reliable because there are many scammers out there posing as recovery agents who will only take your money without returning it.I was a victim of one of these scams myself after losing all of my money to an investment scam.I sought assistance from a few recovery agents but was conned by one of them again. Fortunately for me,I was directed to CYBERETRIEVE.They returned my pilfered bitcoin without requiring any payment up ahead.
