A breakthrough is a sudden burst of God’s favor. It’s a flood of His goodness that thrusts you ahead. For where God is taking you, the dreams He’s put in your heart, the giants that will be in your path, it’s not going to all be gradual, little by little, a process that you can see. He has some of these breakthrough moments that you can’t explain, that will catapult you into your destiny.
God has unlimited favor, unlimited power. God being good to you doesn’t stop Him from being good to someone else. The Scripture says, “It is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” He’s just waiting for you to ask.
Proverbs says, “Don’t say I’ll get even for the wrong; wait for the Lord to handle the matter.” If you’ll wait, God will vindicate you better than you can vindicate yourself. His solution is better than your solution. Hold your peace. Remain at rest. You may not see anything happening, but God is up to something.
God is counting on you to tap into His favor, to see the surpassing greatness of His power. That takes bold prayers; that takes people who will take the limits off of God, people who won’t be moved by how impossible their dream looks.
Dear Lord,
Today, don’t let me become everybody’s favorite yes-man just to keep the peace. If choosing You means losing people, let them go. I’d rather have my whole circle turn on me than have You look at me like I folded. Popularity is temporary, conviction is permanent. I don’t need a standing ovation from people who wouldn’t even take a bullet for me. In Jesus’ name. Amen🙏🏽
Dear Lord,
Today, correct me where I’m wrong, but also expose every fake friend who smiled in my face while celebrating my setbacks and eating off my energy. I’m done calling it spiritual warfare when it’s really just people I should’ve cut off years ago. Sharpen my vision and never let me confuse kindness for loyalty ever again. In Jesus name🙏🏽
Get a new perspective. You’re not limited by who raised you. You’re not at a disadvantage. You are about to see the greatness in you come out. Get ready, you’re about to defy the odds.
Dear Lord,
Today, my prayer is for wisdom and discernment. May opportunities come and new ideas begin to flow. Give peace that overwhelms my spirit and joy that covers wherever I go. Continue to work in me, both to will and to work for Your good pleasure. In Jesus name. Amen🙏🏽
It takes faith to leave it alone. When you take your hands off and you let God take care of it, that’s not a lack of faith; that’s great faith. When you can say, “God, I trust You with my weeds. I trust You with things I don’t understand. I’m not going to get in a hurry and try to fix things that will damage my harvest. I’m going to leave it alone.” That’s a powerful position.
On the way to your purpose, there will be divine delays, divine detours. The route may not be what you expected, but you’re still going to get to the destination He has for you. Maybe people do you wrong. Setbacks that weren’t your fault. It’s not catching God off guard. He knows everything. It’s positioning you for greater things.
Jesus says about His words, “The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life” (John 6:63). Solomon says our words have “the power of life and death” (Proverbs 18:21). And James wrote that our words can be a source of “blessing and cursing” (James 3:10). Our words can direct the course of our life for victory or defeat.
It’s not up to you to control outcomes, strive and strain. There’s a much better way to live. Understand that what God has purposed, He’s going to make happen. He’s going to open doors. He’s going to cause you to shine, to stand out. You can stay in peace.

God’s hand is outstretched toward you. It’s a hand of healing, a hand of provision, a hand of favor. You didn’t miss it. Mistakes didn’t cancel it. Bad breaks didn’t override it. Trouble didn’t stop it. The trouble positioned you. God is ordering your steps. His calling on your life has not changed.
