Sanctified by Truth
Us humans are so dependent on the things of this world that a lot of the time, we don't even realize how blessed we are to even live another day. To be breathing. To have a healthy life.
We become so consumed with materialistic items and distracted by things we idolize.
In John 17:16 it says, " They are not of this world, just as I am not of this world."
God has equipped us to do powerful things on this earth but we get so side tracked that we forget what our actual purpose in and of this world is. We are His chosen people. He has sanctified us by His truth, by His word.
The most important thing about a fast is the fact that we are being consecrated. We are being made full, to fulfill a calling, and to be set apart for a holy purpose.
In Exodus 6:7, He called all of the Jews to separate themselves from others in the world and to focus their lives on Him.
We can be sanctified. We can be made holy, we can become pure by the truth that is in the Word of the Lord.
If we separate ourselves from this world, we can fully accomplish what the Lord has planned for us to do.
Submit yourself to the Lord and walk in His ways.
