Ps 52 - 54
Topic:
Divine Breakthrough
Text: Psalm 1:1-6
What
is the implication of what we learnt last week Tuesday? What Elisha,
the man of God, said prophetically he is still saying to all believers.
Let me say it again: within twenty-four hours, there will be a
breakthrough. What do we mean by a breakthrough. When a man is
digging a well in a dry land and suddenly comes across water after
several days of hard work, we would say he has made a breakthrough.
This
is because, from that day onwards, he will never thirst or lack
water again. Breakthrough means entering into a blessing that
is more than enough. You keep on sweating until you get a breakthrough.
Unless you get a breakthrough, your efforts will be fruitless.
When you get a breakthrough, it comes with joy and happiness.
Today, we shall take a brief look at one man in the Bible who
had a breakthrough: Abraham, in Genesis 12:1-3 “Now the
LORD had said unto Abraham, get thee out of thy country, and from
thy kindred, and from thy father’s house, unto a land that
I will shew thee and I will make of thee a great nation, and I
will bless thee, and make thy name great: and thou shalt be a
blessing: and I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him
that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth
be blessed.” Abraham woke up one morning to God’s
promises of blessing: that He would make him great and make a
great nation out of him.
God
also said that through him He would bless the whole world. One
thing that is common with those who have breakthrough is that
God singles them out. Abraham became great afterwards. God singled
him out for supernatural blessings. We have a description of his
blessings in Genesis 24:34-35; “And he said, I am Abraham’s
servant. And the LORD hath blessed my master greatly; and he hath
become great; He has given him flocks and herds and silver, and
gold, and menservants, and maidservants, and camels, and asses.”
Abraham could no longer escape being great. Do you know that what
God did for Abraham he can do for you today? Challenge God through
prayer by asking Him to grant you a supernatural breakthrough.
Invest so much of your prayer efforts in this request and your
life will no longer remain the same.
Memory verse: Psalms 1:3 - “And he shall be like a tree
planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit
in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he
doeth shall prosper.”
