CONDITIONS FOR BREAKTHROUGH MEMORISE: ‘But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased.’ (Ps 115:3) READ: 1 Timothy 6:11-12 ‘But our God is in the heavens: he hath done whatsoever he hath pleased’ (Ps 1115:3). Breakthroughs do not just come on their own: They are provoked. If you sit there without doing anything about that siege, it will continue. It will not change automatically, as some people think. That curse in the family will not just go away on its own. This is because certain forces of darkness – demons and agents of darkness, who may have been used to bring about the siege, have the responsibility of ensuring that the situation never improves, but rather worsen. There are certain steps you can take to obtain your breakthrough. The first is to be chosen by God. If you are born again, you are chosen by God. Before Naaman, the leprous captain of the Syrian Army, had his breakthrough, he had to be cleansed. His sins were forgiven and then he reveived his healing. Sin is the root cause of sickness and some of the other afflictions we suffer today. Before Jesus could heal people, he had to forgive their sins first, then warn them never to return to those sins or else something worse would befall them. Be genuinely saved today. The second step is to obey whatever instruction God gives you, whether it appears rational or not. A leper came to a prophet, who said to go to a small pool and dip in seven times and the leprosy would go. That does not sound scienctific. Peter was told to throw his nets for a catch in the daytime. That was not the right time to fish. But if the God of breakthroughs tells you to do so, then you can be sure that whatever the fishes have gone to, they will be pulled by a force greater than themselves into the region of the net. Obedience is the key to breakthrough. At the marriage in Cana, when the wine was exhausted, Mary came to Jesus’ disciples, pre-empting the move of the God to turn back into abundance. She told them, ‘Whatsoever he says to you please do it.’ It sounded foolish to fill up with gallons of water and then fetch some for the chairman of the feast. Imagine the fear of the servant who held the cup. But if that instruction comes from the God of breakthroughs, you had better carry it out. Are you born again? Have you received an instruction from the Lord? Have you obeyed it?
