I'm Looking For A Breakthrough

Dr Dharius Daniels·Change Church

Sunday, March 10, 2024

Summary

In this message, Dr. Dharius Daniels explores what it truly means to experience a spiritual breakthrough by aligning our expectations with the God of the Bible rather than the god in our head. Looking at 1 Chronicles 14:11, he highlights God as 'Baal Perazim,' the Lord of the Breakthrough, who brings sudden, dramatic advancement and development to our lives. By combining high-quality faith with biblical principles like prayer and fasting, believers are invited to step into new levels of clarity, liberty, ability, and opportunity.

Sermon Moments

“Frustration is the evidence of a failed expectation when we judge God by the god in our head instead of the God of the Bible.”

“God takes not enough and turns not enough into more than enough because He is a provider.”

“You are getting ready to win where you thought you were going to lose.”

“Baal Perazim means Lord of the Breakthrough.”

“A breakthrough is a sudden, dramatic advancement or development.”

“God told me: Change the bottle, not the perfume. Do not dilute the power.”

“God's promises are possessed when we work principles. Principles are the path to the promises.”

“God is going to anoint your 'try'—some of your problem is your try is too fragile, but God is resurrecting your try.”

This Week

Filter your expectations of God through the text of Scripture rather than your personal assumptions.
Identify any areas in your life where you feel stalled or stuck and present them to 'Baal Perazim,' the Lord of the Breakthrough.
Praise God in advance for victory in battles where you previously felt defeated.
Engage in a season of prayer and fasting, abstaining from short-term gratification to seek long-term spiritual growth.
Take initiative in your faith by asking deeper questions and seeking spiritual mentorship in private.
Resurrect your 'try' by persevering through obstacles with high-quality faith, even if it is as small as a mustard seed.
Trust God for reversals of past negative decisions, expecting Him to turn 'no' into 'yes' according to His will.

Remember This

God is 'Baal Perazim'—the Lord of the Breakthrough—who brings sudden, dramatic advancement when we align our faith with His principles.

A Challenge for You

Commit your heart and your faith to prayer and fasting during this season, believing that God will release breakthroughs in your clarity, liberty, ability, and opportunity.
