To help you prepare the Lord for His final gathering, the prophet then asked the youth to do 5 things that would help change them and change the world.
- Hold a seven-day fast from social media. Take a break from the fake!
- For three weeks, make a weekly sacrifice of time to the Lord.
- Keep on the covenant path. If you have wandered off, immediately get on the road of repentance.
- Daily pray that the doors of all nations will be opened for the preaching of the gospel.
- Be a light. Set the standard. Give away one copy of For the Strength of Youth.
So about that 1st one SOCIAL MEDIA FAST… it’s been amazing to feel & recognize how the Spirit has been prompting me to do this too!
I've tried to find a way to disqualify myself through the many thoughts I’ve had, “he wasn’t talking to me,” or “I’m not a youth,” “I don’t even have 12-18yr olds,” “I’m not a youth leader anymore,” “I’m not even on social media THAT much” so “it doesn’t apply to me” have all gone through my head and more.
Truth is as a woman, as a friend, as a parent, as a sister, as a daughter, as a granddaughter, as a wife, as a leader, as a businesswoman, as a social media marketer, as an employee, as an entrepreneur, as a spiritual being, as a human being, as an imperfect disciple of Christ, as a daughter of God, I NEED & DESIRE to obey, to set the example of following the Lord’s Prophet! He knows something I don’t know, and I desire to obey and to know that truth for myself too.
So...I might be almost 3 months late at “following the Prophet,” but here we go!
“I will go and do the things the Lord commands!”
