Breakthrough is always available, no matter the situation. Most of the time, it’s just not in the timing we expect or want. Our culture has tried to rob us of breakthrough and convince us that once something has happened to you, you must then play the victim mentality and live with it for the rest of your life. Furthermore, our society has created a now mentality when the reality is, things take time and God has perfect timing.
It can be easy when you have went through a valley for so long, to just set up camp there but God has called us to never camp out in our desert. I am guilty of throwing myself plenty of pity parties for all the valley’s and circumstances that I have found myself in. The thing is, I wasted my time and energy giving into what the devil wanted while God was calling me to the mountain the entire time.
I don’t know what giant you are facing or even how long you may have been in what feels like the wilderness but I do know that God isn’t finished with you yet!
He hasn’t brought you this far to leave you. He has promised to never leave you nor forsake you and while your surroundings may be less than desirable, we are called to fix our eyes on Him. Satan loves to distract us from our destiny by using our current situations to blindside us. We must be vigilant to stay on the course. Even when you don’t see breakthrough, it is still there! Sometimes, you just have to speak it into existence.
That’s what the Scripture means when it says: “I have made you the father of many nations.” He is our example and father, for in God’s presence he believed that God can raise the dead and call into being things that don’t even exist yet. Against all odds, when it looked hopeless, Abraham believed the promise and expected God to fulfill it. He took God at his word, and as a result he became the father of many nations. God’s declaration over him came to pass: “Your descendants will be so many that they will be impossible to count! Romans 4:17-18 TPT
Find a promise from God and a verse that resonates with you and speak it over yourself daily. Say it until it becomes a part of who you are; a part of your heart. And learn not to give up so easily. God has already declared us overcomers through Him but we still have to fight for things! Know that the battle has already been won but you still must walk in victory to get there.
Remember: God created you with a purpose and a destiny and He isn’t finished with you yet! He has not given up on you so that means you must not give up either! He has given you everything you will ever need for battle. It’s up to you to learn how to use His word to move closer into your destiny!
Blessings, Joanna
