The Fast that God has Chosen

Father is this not the fast that you have chosen?
 
I believe that my soul will be satisfied in drought. I believe that God will make me again like a well-watered garden. I will not perish. I will not be set aside or discarded. My days will again be days of joy. Is this not the fast that you have chosen Oh, God? My father My father, the chariots of Israel and the horsemen thereof. All my bones are out of joint. My tongue cleaves to the roof of my mouth. My heart cries out to you and my soul looks to you – you made me and I will not say “why have you made me thus.” You did not ordain me to destruction. You did not put me in the earth to be a man of sorrow. I reject and I refuse the bitter dregs of yesterday’s calamity. My tomorrows will not be denied me. I will live, I will live and I will not die and I will have something worth living for in Jesus’ name.
 
I believe that my light shall break forth as the morning. My God will not leave me where I am. He will cause His glory to be my rear guard. My past will not dictate my future. My present is no indicator of my tomorrow. I call to my God and He will answer. I cry – I cry and His answer is “here am I.” Because I delight myself in Him He will make me ride prosperously in the high places of the earth. I am a prophet and I will not perish from the earth. #IAmAProphet
 
[Isa 58:6-14 KJV] 6 [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? 7 [Is it] not to deal thy bread to the hungry, and that thou bring the poor that are cast out to thy house? when thou seest the naked, that thou cover him; and that thou hide not thyself from thine own flesh? 8 Then shall thy light break forth as the morning, and thine health shall spring forth speedily: and thy righteousness shall go before thee; the glory of the LORD shall be thy rereward. 9 Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I [am]. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity; 10 And [if] thou draw out thy soul to the hungry, and satisfy the afflicted soul; then shall thy light rise in obscurity, and thy darkness [be] as the noonday: 11 And the LORD shall guide thee continually, and satisfy thy soul in drought, and make fat thy bones: and thou shalt be like a watered garden, and like a spring of water, whose waters fail not. 12 And [they that shall be] of thee shall build the old waste places: thou shalt raise up the foundations of many generations; and thou shalt be called, The repairer of the breach, The restorer of paths to dwell in. 13 If thou turn away thy foot from the sabbath, [from] doing thy pleasure on my holy day; and call the sabbath a delight, the holy of the LORD, honourable; and shalt honour him, not doing thine own ways, nor finding thine own pleasure, nor speaking [thine own] words: 14 Then shalt thou delight thyself in the LORD; and I will cause thee to ride upon the high places of the earth, and feed thee with the heritage of Jacob thy father: for the mouth of the LORD hath spoken [it].
