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.

  • I’m a 37-year-old marketing consultant from Berlin, and in 2024, I invested 4.8 BTC (about €300,600) into what I believed was a legitimate opportunity through HyperVerse. It looked promising at first daily returns, active communication but within months, the platform collapsed. My Bitcoin was gone, and I realized too late it was a Ponzi scheme.

    Refusing to accept the loss, I contacted Morphohack Cyber Service. Their team of crypto recovery experts carefully analyzed my case, tracked the stolen funds using blockchain forensics, and communicated with me every step of the way. After nearly four months, they recovered 3.9 BTC, around €366,200 (at the time of recovery) into a secure wallet.

    While I didn’t recover everything, I got back more than I expected. If you’ve been scammed in crypto, I highly recommend Morphohack. Their professionalism and results gave me a second chance.

  • Due to a fraudulent cryptocurrency investing platform, my spouse and I lost $2.3 million worth of Bitcoin. We noticed a chance to invest in cryptocurrencies a few months ago with the potential to generate enormous returns. Without realizing it was all a fraud to steal our money, we placed a significant portion of our business and retirement funds on this platform after contacting a broker online who was posing as an account manager for a forex trading company. We tried to withdraw money for weeks, but this broker kept asking for more, until we were so indebted and broke that it felt like we were going to die. Luckily for us, we came across an article about Wizard James Recovery. We weren’t in a rush to get in touch with them, but we did some research on their offerings and discovered that they could help us get our money back from these crooks. We got in touch with Wizard James, and within 72 hours, James was able to retrieve everything. This company thoroughly investigated the information we gave them and made sure that every penny was returned to us. It felt unbelievable that they were able to retrieve everything we had lost. We are extremely thankful of Wizard James Recovery’s assistance and are sharing this with anyone who might benefit from their services.

  • Just wanted to share my experience here in case anyone else is going through the same nightmare I did. I was scammed out of over $700K by a fake trading platform called BFXCOIN.NET (also tied to EVWSchool of Business). I started with just $10K, saw fake profits, and then they kept pulling me in deeper with promises of higher returns. When I tried to withdraw, everything went dark.

    The authorities couldn’t help me trace anything—even though I had every wallet address and transaction hash. I almost gave up… until I came across BitReclaim on Quora. They are certified cryptocurrency recovery experts with legit blockchain forensics tools. Within a week, they traced everything to outsourced wallets. If you’re dealing with a crypto scam, these are the people you want to contact.
