Every year when the challenge comes around (220 summer challenge) it always amazes me to see what God does and says while going on a media fast. In our challenge we cut off all media streams and seek the Lord. More time to pray, read, seek God, get closer to love ones. It’s truly incredible how much time we spend inundating ourselves with the latest news or just simply wasting hours bugged out not realizing that we are wasting valuable time. As we are now a week into this year’s challenge I am once again reminded of how good it feels to be cut off from the foolishness of the world and the bad news of today. My spirit is saturated with the Good News and my mind clear to hear the voice of the HS. I pray that in this challenge God will speak to me about things concerning our nation, church, and youth ministry. With the responsibilities on my shoulders it is imperitave that I hear from God consistently. I encourage you to do a complete media fast for a season and see how different your life becomes overnight! Get down a good book and stimulate your brain. Dig into the Word and build your faith. Seek God with your extra time and see Him move like never before.

Rom 12:1,2– I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world (media, magazines, movies, TV), but be transformed by the renewing of your mind (Word, prayer, church, and cell), that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Notice: once your mind is transformed and renewed you will become supersensitive to the will of God in your life. Many want to know His will but don’t want to shut of the tv to seek it out! Decontaminate your spirit! This is the word for today.
