How does a breakthrough benefit us?

Hello dear friends!
Today I want to talk to you about how a breakthrough benefits us.
Let us take a story from the Bible for a base.

«One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer – at three in the afternoon. Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. When all the people saw him walking and praising God, they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him…» (Acts 3:1-10)

So, how does a breakthrough benefit us?

  • A breakthrough moves us from weakness to strength. This crippled man’s feet and ankles were weak, therefore he could not walk. When God gave him a breakthrough, his feet and ankles immediately became strong. «…7Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. » (Acts 3:7).

Weaknesses in your life will become strong points starting this day in the Name of Jesus Christ. After a breakthrough, the weak can truly say, «I am strong!»

  • A breakthrough allows you to move from crawling over to jumping. When a person crawls, they are limited in life. They cannot walk long distances, but if they can, they are very slow and suffering a lot of pain. Starting the moment of the breakthrough, this crippled man moved from crawling over to jumping and walking. God made his steps faster. «8He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.» (Acts 3:8)

God will give wings to your destiny and will make your steps faster in the Name of Jesus Christ.

  • A breakthrough will transform you from a grieving and murmuring person into a happy and singing person. «All the people saw him walking and praising God…» (Acts 3:9)

This man suddenly received joy in the Lord instead of mourning. This is what God want to do through a breakthrough. God wants to give the oil of gladness instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. (Isaiah 61:3).

  • A breakthrough will help us change from a broken beggar into a happy and joyful person.

God wants to make your life more beautiful. He wants to give you a new song in the early morning, He wants to provide for those who grieve in Zion – He will bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes. (Isaiah 61:3а). This will happen due to the breakthrough given by God.
God wants you to become living testimonies of His love and power.

  • A breakthrough will lead you out of a hard work and take you into celebration. You might be working hard with no outstanding success, but when you experience a breakthrough, your work will bring you an actual profit.

 

If this is what you want in life, do not miss what we will talk about in the next two days. Tomorrow we will talk about what our breakthrough depends on.

 

You will succeed in the Name of Jesus Christ!

 

With God!

  • Where to get joy?

    «The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple; the statutes of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes» (Psalm 19:8-9).This passage of Scriptures tells us that one of the sources of joy is God’s Word, meditation on the Word and the perception of the (our) world through the prism of the Word. That is why it is so important for us to realize that if we want to remain in joy and learn to draw joy, we must grow in love with God’s Word.

    Other people might be responsible for where you are in life, but nobody is responsible for your continuing to stay where you are. Until you stop finding fault and shifting blame, you will not rise up and take responsibility for your advancement in life. Here is what God want you to do from today on:Don’t blame the devil, resist him (James 4: 7); Don’t blame God, obey Him (Genesis 3: 12-13); Don’t blame your challenges and predicaments; fight your way through them by faith (Number chapter 12-14).

    1. Fear of rejection. Many people are afraid of others rejecting or despising them when they find out all the truth. Biblical accountability is fulfilment of the law of Christ which tells us to express our care for the others in the spirit of humility: «Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ» (Galatians, 6:1-2).

  • How can we experience God in our life?

    Studying the Bible we see God doing great feats through many people. He was able to realise His intentions using those people just due to their revelation and understanding of God´s key principles. While living in the different times, educated on a different level, belonged to the different cultures all Bible heroes basically have something in common. The secret of the success and feats they had is obvious – they knew God and interacted with Him. They experienced God´s power and His mercy in their lives. How did they succeeded? It became possible because they dedicated themselves to God. That´s exactly what God is inviting us to do.

    When we look at the life of Jesus Christ we see that He did not live an independent life. Jesus was accountable to His Father in everything – in words and deeds: «Then Jesus said to them, „When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things» (John, 8:28).
