Breakthroughs From Heaven

MEMORIZE: “He that hath a bountiful eye shall be blessed;
for he giveth of his bread to the poor” (Prov. 22:9)


READ: 1 Kings 17:8-16

There are various levels of breakthrough. There is a type of breakthrough that ushers in a period of limited pleasure, provision or joy and thereafter diminishes. A brother received a breakthrough which came by a word of knowledge. As the word came to pass, he got connected with an uncommon medical facility which came from a distant land. For a period of time, he blossomed and raked in money.

But at some point, the business attracted high level of competition that eventually knocked him out of business. That breakthrough was quite limited. But on the other hand, there is the breakthrough of breakthroughs which is capable of swallowing other breakthroughs. This can be called the ultimate breakthrough - the type which completely banishes poverty from the life and situation of the recipient. That shall be your experience this season in Jesus’ Name.

Through the monthly Divine Encounter Program of this church, the Lord has caused several brethren to enter this realm of breakthrough financially to the extent of becoming multi - millionaires. This is why you must not fail to attend the Divine Encounter if you are trusting God to touch your finances. However, as we study the widow of Zarephath, we see God turning her from nothingness to someone of importance. She moved from a point where all she had to her name was a meal to a point when she never lacked again. I see God repeating His miraculous intervention in your life and situation. But the change did not just come.

Usually, changes do not just come until provoked. There are seven tried and tasted principles that you can learn from in this story through which you can move to the next level in your finances. First, the most appropriate time to sow is when it is most difficult or practically impossible. When you sow at such a time, you are most probably in for a spiritual jack pot. It is difficult to sow out of very little. It is difficult to give out your last. It is tough to collect our salary or total profit from a business and turn everything into a kingdom project on God’s instruction. As difficult as these may be, they are the means by which you can change your financial history. But are you daring and God-trusting enough? Take a step today!

ACTION POINT:


Father, thank You for all Your blessings. Give me my super breakthrough that will terminate lack and poverty in my life.
