BREAKTHROUGHS

1 Corinthians 16:9 AMPC

For a wide door of opportunity for effectual [service] has opened to me [there, a great and promising one], and [there are] many adversaries.


Breakthrough is the sudden, dramatic, and important discovery or development, and the sudden change in circumstances. It is an open door into greater opportunities and places.

Breakthroughs are a process; they do not just happen, nor can they be manipulated to happen. For a breakthrough to occur, there must first be a need and an opportunity. The process for a breakthrough is not always obvious and can be exceedingly difficult to go through. Breakthroughs do not begin when they are manifested; they begin at the point where we set ourselves to seek the Lord through extended, intensive prayer.

A great effectual door is opened—A great and energetic door of opportunities is opened to us all; that is, God has made a grand opening for us in many places. However, there will be many adversaries to oppose us. The breakthrough process implies labour. The door often signifies occasion or opportunity.

Jeremiah 33:3 says to call upon God to receive a breakthrough. He promises that when we call unto Him, not only will He answer us, but He will show us things that we wouldn’t otherwise have known had we not called on Him. God alone can bring a breakthrough and reveal what the future holds.

Just like in the natural world, so it is in the spiritual realm. The darkest time is right before the dawn as stated in Psalm 30:5b. The battle usually rages at its highest right before the victorious breakthrough.

So, if you are in a battle this morning—fighting and believing for your breakthrough—expect your breakthrough to come at dawn. Sometimes we may find ourselves in situations that make us think there’s no hope (I have been in so many), and we feel like our prayer is getting nowhere. What do we do when we have prayed about it and the situation stays the same? We wait for the Lord to turn things around. 

God says He’s doing a new thing in Isaiah 43:19 and as instructed in Proverbs 3:5-6, He needs us to trust Him to do that new thing that will usher in our breakthroughs. Even when we get tired, we must wait on Him and He promises to renew our Strength in preparation for our breakthroughs. 

The first breakthrough the Lord gives us is found in Colossians 1:13—God delivered us from the power of darkness. The apostle intimates here that nothing less than the power of God can redeem a man from this darkness, or prince of darkness, who, through sin and unbelief, keeps men in ignorance, vice, and misery.

The Lord is always delivering us and drawing us out of the control and dominion of darkness and transferring us into the kingdom of the Son.

We all desire a breakthrough in one area of our lives or another—it could be health, financial, marital, or spiritual—but the first step to breakthrough is to seek and ask the Lord, as stipulated in James 4:2. How much enjoyment of God’s presence and experience of His power for breakthroughs are we missing out on because we do not ask God for what we desire and for breakthroughs?

Breakthrough is certain for us because we are of God and are under the influence of the Divine Spirit of breakthrough to overcome every hopeless situation. Greater is the Holy Spirit, which is in us, than the spirit of afflictions which is in the world in 1 John 4:4.

Whatever breakthrough you are seeking and waiting for, do not allow adversities, afflictions, and distractions to stop you from going through the open door of breakthrough. Breakthrough is on the way.

PRAYER: Dear Lord, I fervently ask for divine breakthroughs and opportunities. Thank you for the open doors of provision, success, and divine encounters. Let Your hand of favour be upon me always in Jesus’s name, amen.

IT IS NEVER TOO LATE TO START AGAIN!

Job 17:10-11 GW   "But now, all of you, come and try again! I won’t find one wise man among you.  My days are passing by. My plans are broken. My dreams are shattered."[10]   Life may require us to start again—and it’s never too late to start over. One of life’s certainties is that everyone will experience failure at something at some point. Life is never an unbroken series of victories. Setbacks, losses, and sometimes defeat will happen and may overwhelm us. Defeat may be thrust upon us by circumstance or by others, or we may defeat ourselves by our own thoughts and actions. When this happens, some give up, some persist until they succeed, and others are willing to start over again. Luke 7:11-15 gives the account of the widow of Nain, on her way to bury her only son, crying, distraught after losing another close family member. On the way, Jesus saw her, had compassion, and acted.  The woman must have thought, "Is He kidding? Does He know what I've been t...

DIVINE VISION!

Jeremiah 1:1-11 NASB The words of Jeremiah the son of Hilkiah, of the priests who were in Anathoth in the land of Benjamin, [2] to whom the word of the Lord came in the days of Josiah the son of Amon, king of Judah, in the thirteenth year of his reign. [3] It came also in the days of Jehoiakim the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the end of the eleventh year of Zedekiah the son of Josiah, king of Judah, until the exile of Jerusalem in the fifth month. [4] Now the word of the Lord came to me, saying, [5] “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” [6] Then I said, “Oh, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, Because I am a youth.” [7] But the Lord said to me, “Do not say, ‘I am a youth,’ Because everywhere I send you, you shall go, And all that I command you, you shall speak. [8] “Do not be afraid of them, For I am with you to save you,” declares the Lord. [9] Then the Lord stretch...

RESISTANCE FROM STEPPING INTO PURPOSE!

John 16:33 AMPC I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]   Stepping into your God-given purpose is one of the most powerful decisions you will ever make. But it is also one of the most resisted. The Bible makes it clear that whenever God calls a person, opposition rises—externally, internally, and spiritually. Jesus Himself tells us that trials will come, but His victory gives us courage and peace. Every believer must understand this: resistance is not a sign that you’re in the wrong place; it is often proof that you’re stepping into the right one. Everyone called by God faces resistance! Throughout Scripture, the moment people stepped into divine purpose, they faced pushback. ...
