The Helper - Levels of Breakthrough (notes)

The Helper - Levels of Breakthrough

Acts 15:3

After they were sent off and on their way, they told everyone they met as they traveled through Phoenicia and Samaria about the breakthrough to the non-Jewish outsiders. Everyone who heard the news cheered it was terrific news.

A Breakthrough is a sudden, dramatic and important discovery or development. A significant and dramatic overcoming of a perceived obstacle, allowing the completion of a process.

In Acts we find a sudden, dramatic and important discovery of God’s power, love and presence. What is the process that breakthrough talks about? The church being the Body (extension) of Jesus Christ, becoming the extension of the kingdom of God on earth. When heaven invades earth.

There Are obstacles in the spiritual realm over geographical areas that need a breakthrough so God can come and move with great power and see heaven invade earth.

Dreams Are The Language of The Holy Spirit

Some of you (us) have had dreams over the years that have a prophetic significance. I do not take dreams lightly. Write them down and bring them to me and lets see what the Holy Spirit is saying to us.

I Believe There Are Three Levels of Breakthrough That Speak To Us:

  1. Signs and wonders and miracles.
  2. Intercession and spiritual warfare.
  3. Economic or financial.

There Are Some Places on earth where the church has broken through and the heavens are open and God’s presence is very tangible.

Signs & Wonders

In order to see signs and wonders we must talk about the fact that it is God’s will to heal and perform miracles today. Every believer has the right to see miracles today. A period of great need is coming to the world and it will take people full of God to see miracles touch the needs of people.

Intercession & Warfare

To see a breakthrough in the area of demonic strongholds here, we must engage in intense prayer. We can all get involved in strategic level spiritual warfare. A period of great oppression will happen before Jesus returns so we must take our authority and drive out evil in this place.

Economic

  • To preach the Gospel to the poor we must overcome the spirit of poverty.
  • God is the source of all provision and has the power to give us ability to create wealth to minister to the hurting.
  • What God says about economic breakthrough. Mal. 3:10-12
  • The storehouse of heaven will open for anyone who puts God first in their finances. Deut. 28:1-14

A Breakthrough

  • Is a significant and dramatic overcoming of a perceived obstacle, allowing the completion of a process.
  • There are obstacles in this area that we must overcome in order to see revival.
  • Heaven is invading the planet through the church in places all over the earth right now.

What Can We Apply From What God is Saying To The Church?

  1. We can be assured that God is on His throne and has everything under control.
  2. We can partner with Him by breaking through in the spirit realm to see His dominion invade the planet.
  • Jesus spoke, something happened, because the Word of God constantly flowed from Him. This is evident in the temptation.
  • Jesus responds to satan He said. It is written. Matthew 4:4-10
