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! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye
