Saved Not Soft · Spiritual Oppression, Battling Anxiety and Obedience w Clarissa Rojas · 5 Mar 2025 podcast

It's literal gluttony. I think people think gluttony is being obese. Gluttony is making food and consumption an idol. That's what gluttony is. So if you're in church and you're thinking about what I'm going to eat after the service, you're gluttonous. Because...

You want a big back for a Big Mac, and it's like God just wants you to sit down and read Proverbs for a moment, and then you could have your number four later. I'm being so serious, dog.

I'm being so serious. No, for real, though. No, seriously. Bro, big back for a Big Mac is crazy.

no but it's facts no it's facts though bro well well actually when i met you that's when i fasted for the first time you remember that oh yeah yeah so i remember the first time i fasted it changed my entire life because i was reading my scriptures and like i knew the bible uh i've always been you know super into like god's word and just really receptive off of everything that god was saying and

you know, being obedient in my walk and all this stuff for like the stage that I was at. But one place where I was really weak in the beginning of my faith was fasting. I remember the first fast I did was a three week fast, a three week intermediate fast. So I wasn't eating from 6 a.m. to 6 p.m. for three weeks straight. It was like 21 days.

And when I tell you the amount of blessings I got out of that fast, absolutely changed my life. And I did it through my other best friend, Amoya's church. And

well they just they just come with a fire i mean whenever she'd be staying over she'd be playing their services out loud and it just sound like they going to work in the spirit no but uh yeah shout out uh kingdom full tabernacle they're great but uh yeah so i did uh their fast and it was their marriage and destiny fast and i did that for three years straight that's how i know it's been three years because i would have done it this past year would have been three years um but

Yeah, it completely changed my life. It showed me areas in my life where God was there and I didn't even know. Like how you said earlier, places where you didn't know you needed him. It humbled me a lot. It showed me really how weak I was, how I couldn't do everything on my own, how God and Christ is magnified of how Jesus truly is and needs to be the center of it all for my whole entire life.

And then he showed me

me areas in my life where I was down bad like really down bad emotionally physically psychologically he showed me even even things I hated about those around me that I even picked up for myself like a lot of hypocrisy he was like Emmy like you get so mad that people around you are doing this but you're doing the same exact thing like even when it came to my family I'd be like oh hey my mom's doing this or hey that my brother's doing this or my dad and

And he was like, you're doing the same exact things that they're doing. And let me show you why in the spirit, because they're caught up in all this fear. They've been oppressed. They've gone through tragedies and whatever it may be. And it's poured onto you. So child, what are you going to do about this? Are you going to come into agreement with the same stuff they've been doing?

Are you going to like push forward and create something new with me? Because I'm also a first generational Christian. So that was like a different fire. But fasting, every time I fast, I always get massively humbled. And fasting is always Holy Spirit led to. I just feel the Lord just being like, you have to fast. And I fast, I try once a month. Like at least once a month I fast.

Even if it's just for a day or two or three. For a while, I did the first three days of the month and it completely changed my life. Because you're needy for God. And even Mark chapter five, whenever he's talking about the spirit of legion and the disciples going to cast that day and demon out and they're like, why can't we do this?

And Jesus said, there's only certain spirits that can be casted out through prayer and fasting. And you know how much stuff is probably in the aroma in the room with us. It's like, we got the blood of Christ. Yes. But it's like, there's other things we're still needing to die to.

And it's like, if we're failing to pray and fast, it's like, how do we expect God's going to give us that provision to partner with him?

Yeah. No, a thousand percent.

Because he could do it on his own, but it's like God is... Faith without works is dead. So it's like God will grace us so we can have the faith. So then work through that faith to do the dang thing that he has called us to do.

Yeah. No, and going off of that verse too, that was one of the scriptures that set me free from my anxiety and depression, fear, all that stuff. Because... mind you, I was learning about the importance of fasting because I had come across that verse. And I was like, because like I said, I had knew the word. So the word was like, the word's important. Don't get me wrong.

Like, but it's like, I only like knew it to just have head knowledge, not to have intimacy with God. So, the Lord really highlighted to me through that scripture. And that's how I think the Lord got me with intimacy through prayer and fasting. Because he's like, if I can't get you with this, Clarissa, because you're misusing it for the wrong reasons, then I'm gonna get you right here.

So my prayer life changed completely because I was just like, oh, thank you, God, for this. And thank you, God, for that. Like, when I started, like, learning the power of prayer and, like, praying things off of me and, like, demons and literally, like, darkness, evil thoughts, laying those at the feet of Jesus, casting every thought to him and, like, holding it captive at the feet of Jesus.
