Breakthroughs Are Such Hard Work!?


“and may you have the power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ,

and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—

that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.”

Ephesians 3:18-19 





It seems too simple to be true –

How is it that a fresh revelation of the love of God for me can bring breakthrough in my life?

Well, in many ways, the answer is simple too!

That fresh revelation of His love builds faith in your life.

Increased faith to believe God for the needs or circumstances you are facing.

I know, I know – but it really is that simple.

We are, more often than not, expecting some huge puzzle or maze we must walk through for breakthrough.

After all, God needs my help!

But that is a trap the enemy tries to catch us with.

Works for love – love for works.

But God calls us to a place of ‘knowing’ and not of ‘doing’.

Don’t get me wrong – there is a time for action and we certainly know that faith without works is dead.

But works are the fruit of a believer who is in love with God and knows God loves him!

Works never have and never will earn the love of God or bring the breakthrough you are seeking.

It is by His love and the revelation of that love.
