21 Day Fast Towards Divine Nature

Day 6 Fasting that monkey on your back Luke 19:1-10

To have a monkey on ones back means that you are carrying a burden or a problem that you find difficult to get rid of, and this is the story of a man who certainly had a monkey. 

If you have been saved more than one year you have heard the story about this short crooked tax-gatherer. Jesus looks up in the tree and tells him to come down they need to have a meal together. 

Zaccheus finds salvation, and proclaims he is going to give half his possessions to the poor, and pay back four times anyone he had defrauded. Now that is a real encounter with God ! The monkey on Zaccheus’s back was greed, and after his encounter with Jesus, the monkey was gone. What monkey are you carrying around with you today? It will amaze you how light your back becomes when you offload that pesky primate. Unfortunately many get so used to him being there, they think that it is their true self, that is a lie from the enemy of your souls. Get rid of him today !
