SERIES: THE GOD WE SERVE
TEXT: 2nd SAMUEL 5:17-20
Breakthroughs are divine interventions that disrupt stagnation and usher in forward movement.
Breakthroughs come when barriers give way, when impossibilities bow, when divine power overrides natural limitations.
The God we serve is not limited by circumstances. He is the God of the breakthroughs.
Many people face spiritual, financial, emotional or physical walls that seem impenetrable. But there is no situation too strong for God to break through.
God has all power to burst through demonic resistance, ancestral limitations and every form of delay or denial.
Throughout the Bible, we see God breaking through for His people in marvelous ways. Our God parts the seas, collapses walls, opens closed wombs, releases captives. This our God is the same yesterday, and today and forever. He still does it today. When we trust and yield to Him, He shows up as the Lord of the Breakthrough.
