TOPIC: BREAKING FORTH

‎PREACHER: BRO. Femi SHITTU

‎TEXT: ISAIAH 54:3

"For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited." — Isaiah 54:3

Breaking forth is the divine transition from limitation to expansion. It is the spiritual and physical momentum required to move beyond stagnation, barrenness, and the shadows of obscurity into God's light and abundance.

The Necessity of the Struggle

Solutions exist because there are problems; success is defined by the challenges it overcomes. Victory is not the absence of a fight, but the triumph over it. As believers, our breakthrough is guaranteed not by our own strength, but by our lineage.

• The Assurance: "For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith." — 1 John 5:4-5

• The Refinement: Raw gold is rarely appreciated in its natural state; its value is revealed only after it survives the fire.

• The Process: "Take away the dross from the silver, and there shall come forth a vessel for the finer." — Proverbs 25:4

We must remember that with God on our side, we don't just "survive" the storm—we sail through it to dominate as the kings and priests He has called us to be (Revelation 5:10).

Biblical Giants of Breakthrough

• Joseph: He rose above betrayal, false accusation, and imprisonment to become the Prime Minister of Egypt. He didn't just survive a strange land; he ruled it (Genesis 41:39-41).

• Jesus Christ: He endured the cross and despised the shame, focusing solely on the joy and glory set before Him (Hebrews 12:2).

• Elisha: Despite being mocked by the sons of the prophets and told his master would be taken away, he remained persistent. His tenacity earned him the double portion of Elijah’s anointing (2 Kings 2).

• Jabez: Born in sorrow and limited by his name, he prayed for an enlargement of his coast, and God granted his request (1 Chronicles 4:10).

Dimensions of How to Break Forth

1. Know Your Identity: When purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. Joseph held onto his dream even in a pit. You must see yourself as God sees you—a royal priesthood and a holy nation (1 Peter 2:9).

2. Exercise Unwavering Faith: Faith is the currency of the Kingdom. Without it, it is not impossible to please Him or manifest His power (Hebrews 11:1, 6).

3. The Law of Diligence: Skill and hard work are the vehicles for divine favor. "Seestthou a man diligent in his business? he shall stand before kings" (Proverbs 22:29).

4. Capacity Building: You cannot house a "mansion" blessing with a "shack" mentality.

Expand your mind, your skills, and your spirit to contain what God is releasing.

5. A Lifestyle of Prayer: Prayer is the engine room of breakthrough. It shifts things in the spirit before they manifest in the physical.

6. Consecration (Holy Living): Sin is a weight that slows down momentum. Living a life of purity ensures that your "pipe" to the heavens remains unclogged. 

Holiness preserves destiny. Gehazi lost the opportunity for greater spiritual elevation because of his actions. A life of integrity and obedience to God is essential for lasting breakthrough.

7. Prophetic Utterance: Don't just wait for it—speak it. Declare your expansion daily.

Conclusion

Many times, the difficulties people experience are not the result of sin but an indication that something greater is about to happen. The Word of God in Gospel of Mark 4:25 reminds believers that those who remain faithful will receive even more. Therefore, no matter the circumstances, believers must not give up. Persistence and faith lead to victory and eventual breakthrough.

Breaking forth is God’s desire for His children. While challenges and trials may arise, this should not discourage believers. Instead, they should serve as reminders that God is working behind the scenes. By knowing our identity in Christ, maintaining faith, practicing diligence, living prayerfully, and walking in holiness, believers can confidently move from stagnation to breakthrough and ultimately fulfill God’s purpose for their lives.
