How does a breakthrough benefit us?

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes

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!

    «As Jesus passed on from there, He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. And He said to him, „Follow Me.” So he arose and followed Him. Now it happened as Jesus sat at the table in the house, that behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Him and His disciples. And when the Pharisees saw it, they said to His disciples, „Why does your Teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?” When Jesus heard that, He said to them, „Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. But go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners, to repentance» (Mathew, 9:9-13).

    As a base we will use a passage from Mark chapter 4, where Jesus Himself was speaking in parables. In this chapter there are three parables, through which Jesus explains the power and the potential hidden in a small seed. First I would like to simply recount these parables, but later we will look at each of them in more detail. The first parable that Jesus talked about is the parable of the sower. This parable shows that there is a whole list of obstacles that make it difficult for seeds to grow and bear fruit. In this parable, Jesus went ahead to show us three types of obstacles which can impede the growth of the seeds that we sow. (Mark 4:3-20)

  • Why do people choose to be irresponsible? IV

    «Poverty and shame will come to him who disdains correction, but he who regards a rebuke will be honoured» (Proverbs, 13:18).When an individual does not accept correction and advice, then it makes it difficult to help him to become more responsible. As we have mentioned before, an irresponsible person always considers himself to be right; in his opinion he never errs and because of it he has a hard time accepting reprimand and correction. If a person has come to a point when nobody can speak into his life, then downfall of such a person is practically inevitable.

  • God is the only one who knows the true meaning of human life

    We are saved by Jesus Christ not by our deeds, to be followed by good deeds God has determined for us. Once we realise that He created us, we understand that our life on this Earth is absolutely meaningless without Him, without relationship and collaboration with God. Without Him we would resemble those who lack brain, wandering in the desert, having no certain way to go. Therefore, such people walk in the dark without light, staggering like a drunken man.«He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, And causes them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way. They grope in the dark without light. He makes them stagger like a drunken man.» (Job 12:24-25).
