Breakthrough –by Karen Rowe

Are you heart broken; and can’t seem to break through your problem no matter how you pray?  Do you wonder why is God allowing hurt? Are you suffering; just asking to move forward, but just can’t seem to break free?  To God be the glory, I hope this helps you to understand.

Sometimes faith is for moving forward; and sometimes faith is to endure, BUT always God IS good! First, we have to KNOW God’s will for us, according to the purpose that He has set in us and called us to … before we make that move in faith.

There are essentials in the Kingdom of God:

Jesus Christ.

Believing on Him that Jesus is God’s Son who Is the Christ, who come and died for your sins and rose again and lives at the right hand of the Father.

Then, we are filled with the Holy Spirit of discernment (as we seek understanding in the Word of God) to know God’s will for us in the way we pray, but we must seek God in prayer at the feet of Jesus to find our way His way, which is the only blessed way.

Trust God and trust also in Jesus.

Jude 1:20 commands us to “Build yourself (your character) up in your most holy faith and pray in the Holy Spirit.”

The 1st thing [we all] have to do before we pray is ask God if there is anything in our heart that we need to change personally -to make our personal heart more pleasing to Him [God].

I smile, because this is a beautiful thing to experience … Freedom in Christ by God’s Grace to be set free from the burdens that come to us to hold us down where we are not meant to be!

The Holy Spirit will bring anew to our mind anything that we are harboring in our heart of “bitter envy or selfish ambition” against someone or something;

He will bring to our mind of any one we need to still truly forgive and “let go” of the bitterness we can silently and blindly harbor in our heart that impedes God’s grace in our life.

Forgiveness will not change other people or situations…

Rather,

Forgiveness invites grace and freedom from God to our soul! “Abide in Jesus and He will abide in you…God is LOVE…Remain in God’s agape  Love and you are remaining in Jesus … [see the end of this message]!

To God be the glory -these are the words the Holy Spirit spoke to me and I apply daily to a attend to the new and changed me!

That old saying ‘forgive and forget’ … We do NOT forget, but Godly forgiveness is letting go of the control that anger and bitter emotion has over our prayer life that when we do remember, it has no control over our mind or spiritual life!

Seek Jesus and you shall find God’s Will for you and He will be with you in what He calls you to do (Step by Step).

Our job is: 

Since we live in the Spirit, let us stay in step with the Spirit.

 

Now to answer your question why  … ?

There are those people who have a lack of knowledge [ignorance] of God’s Love … [Ignorance is a lack of knowledge to know to do better].

AND, in this world it is a battle [that, although the battle has been ultimately won] in this world it is still a battle of “GOOD against evil” to overcome in Christ…

WE NEED our knowledge from God’s Word with Holy Spirit understanding to overcome;

AND  each of us need “Wisdom -that is from above” to KNOW God’s will and purpose in which HE has set in “us.”

Because, there are Two Kinds of Wisdom in this world:

• “The wisdom from below”
• and “The Wisdom that comes down to us from Heaven”.
  

  Therefore, the Bible commands us to love with patience and kindness (not necessarily close…love is a matter of our heart and can be from a distance);

AND PRAY for others to come to know God’s Love for them, so that they can change to become more like Jesus.

* So pray for discernment according to the purpose God has set in you -to KNOW God’s will and purpose for you in your life!

* Read God’s Word with HIM for understanding

*AND, Romans 12:18 “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.

Peace IS remaining in Jesus!  Jesus IS Wisdom and Peace!

The JOY of the LORD is your strength and Greater is HE who lives in you, than he that is in the world!

This is why we first must believe “JESUS CRUCIFIED” The Christ, the Son of the Living God.

Challenges come to us to test and build OUR Character!

With every challenge, the temptation comes to us to take the easy way OUT.

BUT Challenges also come with the opportunity to have the gifts of the Spirit (LIFE) stirred up inside of us!

One final thing:

Please believe (do not doubt) God loves you and that you are wonderfully and fearfully made; and that God knows the plans He has made for you – Jeremiah 29:11  “declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”!

 

We are made to be blessed by this way:

Fear [Believe, trust, respect] THE LORD THY GOD with your respect in Whom God Is; and PLACE your trust and hope IN HIM … and also HIS Son!

WE are not commanded to fear man or situations, but we are commanded to TRUST GOD and FOLLOW JESUS! …….

 

… fear is a form of torment in the world, …

BUT, To God be the glory: Fear in the Lord our God is Protection and discernment against all evil that does come up against us … He leads and guides us, if we will simply trust and hope in Him!

Matthew 22:37  “Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’

 

My personal motto:  I don’t have it all figured out, BUT God does, Trust God and Follow Jesus!

And when you pray, pray to the Living God; Believing that He cares, because God loves you!

Dear Heavenly Father, in the name of Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit, I pray for this person reading this right now and all their needs.  Lord Jesus, through God’s Holy Spirit, pour down your love upon all in need; and into their soul to know you and your will for them.  Your will that is good and full of power and authority to overcome all things in Christ Jesus. 

I pray for a hedge of protection to be around all of us in the name of Jesus through the blood of Christ! 

To God be the glory in all we do, Thank you Father; and I pray this will be a blessing and a prayer received to all who read.  Amen.

 

Daily I strive to pray The Lord’s Prayer; and I encourage you to daily pray and listen in every step you take to do all you do for the glory of the Lord:

***Pray:  The Lord’s Prayer.

***Seek to love like God [1 Corinthians 13:4-8]

***Evaluate your fruit [to be active and living or inactive and rotten] in every move you make with the fruit of the Spirit [Galatians 5:22-28]

***AND, Always remember to test your heart in all things for the Wisdom from Heaven [James 3:13-18].

I pray many Blessings to you! …and a blessing … is a gift from God that is received with Praise and Thanksgiving – Hallelujah to the Lamb of God!

I pray this was a blessing to you and To God be the glory.   Amen.

This is the beginning of learning HOW to cast your cares on the LORD through the power of the Holy Spirit:  In Jesus:  Matthew 11:30 “For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
