Breaking the Barrier January 21, 2010

Micah 12: 13  “The breaker goes up before them  They break out, pass through the gate and go out by it.

Today was about pressing in for a breakthrough!

All day I felt like I was hitting a barrier…what was the barrier?  I couldn’t tell.  I wasn’t sure exactly what it was that was in front of me, but I sure felt it.  I was in a battle for understanding, for revelation, for vision.  God let me see!  I told someone, I feel like I’m getting ready for another breaking.

“Break”, in the Greek simply means to burst through!   When you’re pressing in seeking a breakthrough in an area of your life, it can feel like your battling in a fog.  Like you’re in a wrestling match in which your throwing punches at the wind!  But 1 Cor. 9:26:  Says, ”Therefore I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way as not beating the air.” So with the Truth of the Word of God in front of me, I wasn’t confused,  but was compelled to run to God and call upon His name!  He is the “Breaker.”  He is the God of the breakthrough!  Nothing is aimless with God. So that tells me that I don’t have to stop at the barrier…when I know there’s a gate!

So if you’re feeling a bit of a barrier any time during today, don’t be dismayed, don’t try to battle it out on your own, but call upon the God of the breakthrough.  Seek His face and in His perfect timing  the clarity will come.  You will break out and pass through the gate to freedom.
