Power for Breakthrough

Written by Mike Bickle

Meditation:

But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." Acts 1:8

Reflection:

As we call a nation of young people to pray for God to break in, we need to be clear in our own hearts what exactly it is we’re asking for. Rather than just settle for a series of good meetings that leave us tired out but unchanged, let’s join together to ask Him for an outbreak of His spirit that changes us on all levels.

Power for a breakthough of the heart.
When God does a work in our heart, we find ourselves enjoying a fresh intimacy with Him. We become students of His way of thinking and start to cultivate meekness and purity in our day to day lives. We seek to hear Him clearly and obey Him promptly.

Power for a breakthrough of the mind.
A fresh encounter with God will also manifest itself in a new understanding of God’s personality. We will have a spirit of revelation on our lives that will open up keys to His will for us, His emotions for people, and His End-time purposes.

Power for a breakthrough in ministry.
The Asuza Street revival leaders knew they had a significant move of God on their hands when missionaries began to be sent out around the world. The beauty of a God-movement is that it moves! It cannot be confined, and it is confirmed with power for miracles and authority on our words.

Prayer:

Jesus, You said we would receive Your power to become a witness to Your life. I ask that You would cause my heart and my mind to receive a breakthrough in power so that everything in me that hinders my life from witnessing to Your Divine Life would be removed. We ask for you manifest glory to be released in this hour.
