It's good to hear that the fast is going so well. :) I was especially glad to hear that you will not be forcing dry days. I expect you will come out of this a changed man as the Lord does His work in your life through this fasting with prayer experience.
I enjoyed the testimony of deliverance and am happy to hear that you now have another new friend. Praying with someone else is always more powerful especially when the other person is also on fire for the Lord.
"Do you anticipate joining in the fast at any point? : )."
Ha, ha. Timing is really bad for me right now. I am getting ready for a major company experience to celebrate the holidays, but mostly to enjoy being with family for a time. I doubt that I will be spending much time on CZ from now until it is over. I'm pretty sure that I will not be spending much time fasting unless it is a day here and there. I will be thinking about you and hope you will give updates on this forum. I am especially praying that the Lord will magnify your discernment as a result of this fast. :)
