READ: GENESIS
22:15-18
You can
have an outstanding breakthrough. You may have received some miracles already.
However, I want you to know that, in spite of what God has already done for
you, you can still move into the realm of outstanding breakthroughs. To
understand what it means to experience an outstanding breakthrough, it is
important to take a look at scriptural illustrations and teachings on the
subject. Therefore, let us examine some Bible characters who had great
breakthroughs. The God of breakthroughs introduced Himself in Exodus 3:15 as
the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. He called Himself the God of Abraham,
Isaac and Jacob because they all had breakthroughs. Abraham was 95 years old
before he had his major breakthroughs. He met with the God of breakthroughs and
the promises of God were fulfilled in his life. Genesis 22:18 gives us the
kernel of Abraham’s breakthrough: “In your seed all the nations of the earth
shall be blessed, because you have obeyed My voice.” Isaac also had a
great breakthrough. There was a great famine in the land but, while others were
suffering, Isaac was prospering. He prospered so much that a whole nation
envied him. Isaac had a breakthrough because he was linked with Abraham who had
a breakthrough. Those who have great breakthroughs are always linked with
people who had great breakthroughs. If you are linked with a man of God or a
believer who has breakthrough, you too will have a breakthrough. God said He
would bless Abraham whereas he promised to multiply Isaac until he would become
like stars of the heavens and the sand by the seashore. He said Isaac, being
one of the seeds of Abraham, would possess the gates of his enemies and through
him the nations of the earth would be blessed. Genesis 26:13-14 tells us more
about Isaac: “The man began to prosper, and continued prospering until he became very
prosperous; for he had possessions of flocks and possessions of herds and a
great number of servants. So the Philistines envied him.” Do you know that
your own breakthrough can surpass that of your leader?
MEMORIZE:
PSALM 126:1 –When the LORD brought back the captivity of Zion, we were like
those who dream.
