God's breakthrough

View descriptionShare

The Bible says: 'The Philistines went and made a raid on the Valley of Rephaim. And David inquired of God, saying, "Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will you deliver them into my hand?" The Lord said to him, "Go up, for I will deliver them into your hand." So they went up to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there. Then David said, "God has broken through my enemies by my hand like a breakthrough of water"' (1 Chronicles 14:9-11 NKJV). Notice how David likened God's power to the 'breakthrough of water'. He is saying that when God shows up and releases his power, it will be like a flood of his goodness, power, favour, healing, wisdom, resources, and whatever else you need.

Think about how powerful water is: only a few feet of water can lift a huge vehicle and push it all around. On the news we've seen entire houses and buildings carried downstream in torrents of water. Nothing can stop it. Nothing is allowed to stand in its way. That's what happens when God gives you a breakthrough and releases a flood of his power on your behalf.

And God has not changed. His power has not diminished. 'Ah, Lord God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. There is nothing too hard for you' (Jeremiah 32:17 NKJV). God is able to move on your behalf. And he is willing - so ask him for a breakthrough.
