God Is Still the God of Breakthrough

In this episode of The Morning Charge, Joshua talks about breakthrough, healing, provision, and the importance of staying in faith when life feels delayed or difficult.

This message focuses on trusting God for what has not fully appeared yet, refusing to let disappointment become unbelief, and learning how faith, prayer, praise, and persistence work together. It also highlights that breakthrough does not begin with feelings. It begins with what God has already said in His Word.

This episode is a reminder that God is still the healer, still the provider, and still the one who makes a way when there seems to be no way.

SPEAKER_01 0:00

Welcome to the Morning Charge. This is your moment to slow down, breathe, and get your spirit aligned before stepping into the day ahead. Life moves fast, responsibilities pile up, voices compete for your attention. But before the noise of the world takes over, this is where we come back to what actually matters. This is a place for honest conversations about faith, life, purpose, and everyday battles we all face. No pretending, no religious performance, just the truth. Because following Jesus was never meant to be complicated, it was meant to be real. So whether you're driving to work, you're getting the kids ready, or simply taking a quiet moment for yourself, you're in the right place. This is Real Talk, Real Jesus, Real Life. This is the morning charge. All right, y'all. There seems to be a uh a little bit of a theme this morning that I'm seeing. And I think uh we I I was gonna go one direction this morning, and then I remember on an evening reset several months ago, uh it was all about breakthrough. And I was like, where did I put those those notes and my my my i notes, whatever you call these things on my pad, they get kind of cluttered sometimes. So I kind of went back and started looking. I searched for keywords, and I found breakthrough. So I think this morning we need we're gonna go through breakthrough, those things that aren't as if they were. He gave us the faith on the inside to begin to walk things out. You might what you see in the mirror, do not go based upon what you see and what you feel. You need to go based upon the word of God and what he says about us. And there's a lot of people, oh Lord, you know, if it if it be your will, let them be healed. God's will is for you to be healed, by the way. God's will is for you to walk in healing, is for you to walk in wholeness. He doesn't want you to be bound by sickness your entire life. That's not his will for your life. It's just a lot of people have grown weary in walking this thing out. No, God wants breakthrough for your life. And if you don't see it today and you don't see it tomorrow, and you don't see it in a week, get up every day and thank him for it. Thank you, Lord, for your healing. Thank you, God, for the blessings you bestow upon my life. Thank you, Father, for allowing me to be able to walk this journey with you. And I know that I'm getting better today than I was yesterday. Tomorrow's going to be better than it was today. And Father, I trust you with it. And the only reason I can stand here and I can tell you these things this morning is because I walked my own road of healing as a young man, as a kid. When I had that medium-sized hole in my heart, I had somebody stand with me and pray with me in faith that God would heal me. And from that moment forward, there was a reversal that took place, and the hole got smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller, and smaller until it was no more. And from the time that lady prayed faith, a faith prayer with me until until it closed up was 14 years. 14 years. I waited 14 years to see the completeness of it. But every year that went by, there was a little more and a little more and a little more and a little more. God's healing you. Don't give up, don't lose heart. I know he's going to move for you. If he moved for me, I know he's going to move for you. And I stand in faith with you. Breakthrough's coming, but you have to stay in faith. You have to maintain a life of faith. Amen. Because this morning when I was looking up, when I was looking up. Hold on. I closed the other one. I was trying to go back and I couldn't remember the title that I gave what we were going to talk about this morning. It was talk about just being busy and producing fruit. A life, a life, and showing the difference between just being busy and producing fruit. And what I was thinking, I was like, man, you know, I talk about this a lot. Well, breakthrough is something that I don't probably don't talk about enough, even though you guys know that I believe in breakthrough and I believe in healing. Anyway, what I was talking about, the fruit thing, I'm like, boy, we've talked about fruit a lot lately. Lord, do I really need to talk about this again this morning? And the Lord said, Don't forget the rule of seven. And I'm like, the rule of seven? I was like, wait a minute. We learned this. We learned this going through business. And I was like, let me go back and find it. So I looked it up. The rule of seven says that a person needs to hear a message about seven times before they take action. So I know sometimes I feel like, oh, well, maybe this sounds kind of like what we talked about yesterday, and I'm always just sort of compounding when we're not going through books of the Bible and deep diving that way. I try to give you practical ways to glean from the word and how to live your life and how to adopt the lifestyles of Jesus. That's what we do here on the morning charge. We want to walk like Jesus, talk like Jesus. That's what he left us. This is the message he left for us to do. And actually said, in greater works than the things that I did, you're going to do. So if we're going to do that, we got to know how he was moving and what he was doing. So we talk about that a lot. Well, if a person has to hear something seven times before they take action, then we have to go through some things a few times before we start actually walking things out. And actually they say in a news study I was looking up in today's digital noisy world, the number is actually higher because you see so much information every single day over and over and over and over and over, which is why I tell you you have to be careful who you're listening to, what you're watching, what you're getting lost in. Okay. I mean, cute little cat videos are they're nice, but not for five hours today. Okay. You need to be careful with what you consume and what you use your time. Yeah, I know. Seven times. You got to hear it and see it, hear it and see it, hear and see it, hear and see it. I mean, seven times is a lot. But just think, we talked about Jericho falling. All right. They marched around it seven times, blew the trumpet, and it fell. Now they had already been working that thing every day. So really it was like 14 times, either 12 or 14 in all. Okay. Because that last day they went around those seven times and then they shouted and the wall fell. Seven times. So we got to go through things seven times before you fully get it. So yeah. So now the Lord had to just remind me hey, I know you sound like you're repeating things, but you just need to keep winning. It's just be in it to win it. And that's what I'm doing. I'm trying to be in it to win it. So let's talk about breakthrough this morning. Amen. Yeah, this is real talk, real Jesus, real life. This is the morning charge. That's it, Octo. Yeah, real talk. And so, hey, speaking of the morning charge, real quick, get up here to the link in my BIO if you want to find out more information about me or Brandy or Fire and Water Ministries. If you want to become a monthly partner with Fire and Modern Ministries, you can see how to do that there. If you want to find the Morning Charge podcast, you can find the link for that there. A new episode drops at nine o'clock today, and it's the recap of Acts. So if you don't want to go through, I mean, I got we got chapters one to 28 all there. All right. But if you want the recap, it drops today, uh, right after this live stream. So uh so go turn that on if you want to recap where we're walking, what we're doing, all right, as far as being the uh the true church of Acts. I got it there for you this morning. Okay. Breakthrough. Breakthrough is the result of staying in faith, staying in a posture of faith when everything around you is telling you you need to give up. Breakthrough for your life is staying in it to win it, even when everything around you looks impossible, when it looks like it's not gonna happen, when voices are saying, you know what, you've always been this way, you're always gonna be this way. That is a lie, and I want to remind you that that's a lie today, and that's not who God said you are. And we're gonna look at some scriptures and things this morning. There's people who are needing financial breakthrough this morning. There's people who need breakthrough in their healing this morning. There's people this morning who need something to shift in their lives. You need something to move, you need something to break open, and you haven't seen it yet. God is still a God of the breakthrough. We sing about it this morning. You are the God of the breakthrough when I can't see my way through, and I don't know what to do. What do we do? I look to you. When you don't know what to do, you can get so lost in the forest till when you look around, everything just looks the same, and it looks like it's never gonna change, and here I am. You forget to look up because that's where your help comes from. We've got to look at him and keep our eyes on him. God has not changed. From the time all of this text was documented to the people of faith, even after this text, have walked with him, and miracles, signs, and wonders had followed all the decades since. God hasn't changed. He's still the same today, yesterday, and forever, through every generation. He's always going to be the same. Amen. Catherine, thanks for those, my friend. Apostle, good morning to you. I I see you in here. I think I see you in here. But God hasn't changed. God hasn't lost his power, and the power on the inside of you is that same power. Amen. God has not stopped healing people, he has not stopped providing for people, he has not stopped making a way where there seems to be no way. That's the kind of God we serve. He will make a way when there seems to be no way. And Brandy and I, as we were praying and pressing in, even yesterday, we could just, you could just feel some things. It was like there's some unsettling in the atmosphere, and a little bit of fear begin to creep in. Even with our own situations and things, because we're people, we're human too. There's things we're praying through, there's things we're pressing into, there's things that we see. But you know what? If we're not careful, we begin to slip back into that. Well, what if this and what if that? And what no? We have to stand up and we have to arise. There's no mistake why we're going through this this morning and why God has shifted things. Because there's a lot of people, and the enemy is trying to get to folks and bring them in fear and bring them in doubt and bring them uh into a place of worry. Because if he can, if he can get you distracted on the problems, then you get your focus off of Jesus who brings the solutions. And there's a lot of people in here this morning, you're just tired. You're tired, you've been running. Amen. Yeah, Brandy said, remember the word. It is written. In other words, this is how it is. So read it and walk it. But there's a lot of people that are tired in here. You're tired of fighting, you're tired of worrying, you're tired of stressing, you're tired of seeing the same old problems in your life, you're tired of stretching that dollar to meet a whole lot of obligations. And it's like every paycheck, you feel like you're stretching and you're stretching and you're stretching again and you're stretching again. But there's people that are dealing with pain in their bodies, and you've been dealing with pain for what seems like weeks and months and maybe even years for some. There's some people who have been praying and they're feeling like nothing is moving. You're feeling like things are stuck and that things are not going to change. But I want you to hear me very clearly this morning on this. Just because it hasn't broken yet does not mean that God is not moving in your life. Just because something hasn't broken yet, that doesn't mean that God.

SPEAKER_00 11:53

That doesn't mean that He has stopped. He's working, He's moving.

SPEAKER_01 12:00

So let's look at some let's look at some things this morning. See, I had my I had everything all nice and marked out. Maybe we'll get to fruit tomorrow. Maybe. In Genesis 22, in Genesis 22 and 14, here's what it says, and Abraham called the name of the of the place, the Lord will provide. And it is said to this day, in the mount of the Lord it shall be provided. In other words, the place that he was at, the place where Abraham went and he took the ram and he offered it up for the burnt offering instead of his son. That's the story we're talking about. He called that place the Lord will provide. He went and God provided what was needed in that moment. If you need healing breakthrough, remember who God is. Exodus 15 and 26. I am the Lord who heals you. And that's why I was mentioning Genesis 22 and 14. The Lord will provide if you need financial breakthrough. You got to remember who He is. God just is He's not just the God of provision. He is He is your provider. He's He's not just He He's not just coming to do just one healing. No, He is the healer, and that is available for all people. All right. Your need does not change who He is. He is your everything. He is everything you need. And that's just two examples. Whether you need financial breakthrough or you need healing breakthrough. All right. Giving you those, the Bible tells us that He shall provide, and He is the God who heals. He is the one who's going to heal you. Just because you see lack this morning, maybe your bank account is not lining up to exactly the way it needs to look. And that doesn't mean that He has stopped being your provider. Just because you're facing some serious illness or you're facing some serious sickness doesn't mean that He has stopped being the healer. Okay? You're walking through this journey with faith with Him. With faith. God's going to do it. God's going to do it. My God is going to do it. When you begin to stir yourself up and you begin to speak rightly about things, things begin to shift on the inside of you. It's like the Lord just comes and He partners with you in the midst of it. Try it. Try it today. Try it today. Stir some things up today. And remind him how good he is and how good he is in your life and that he is bringing you what you need. And I can tell you, and Paul mentioned this earlier. So that's that was right on. John 3 and 30. He must increase, but I must decrease more of him and less of me. All right, so if I got to decrease, that means all my complaining and my worries and my doubts and all those things have got to go. Increasing means, Lord, I'm living this life in faith with you. Now you can come and pour in. Replace all of that junk. I'm laying it all at the altar this morning. You come and bring me what I need today. And Paul mentioned that breakthrough, breakthrough is on the other side of your persistence. You got to be, you're persistent about your breakthrough. Luke in 18 and 1 is where Jesus had taught that men ought always to pray and not to lose heart. Why would Jesus say that? Why would Jesus say men need to pray and not to lose heart? Because he knew people were going to grow weary. I mean, he knew the human nature. I mean, he was God in flesh. He walked among us. He had feelings. He had all the same things that you and I carry around. He knew people were going to get weary. He knew people were going to be discouraged at times. He knew people would be tempted to stop right before something began to shift. The enemy is trying to get you to stop because something is about to shift in your life and you need to press in a little bit more to begin to watch that shift happen. There's a lot of people who are too close to stop praying now. You're way too close to stop praying now. You're too close to stop believing now. You're too close to quit now. And I want to encourage you this morning, do not let delay, what you feel like is delayed in your life, do not let delay talk you out of your breakthrough. Well, it hasn't happened yet. And we've been here quite a few times and we keep going around this old mountain. Well, if you keep going around this old mountain, that means there's cycles in your life that need to be broken. There's cycles in your life. Hill Country Coasty, thanks for your heart meeting. Welcome in, man. Thanks for your populars. Do not let that delay talk you out of your breakthrough. Yeah, delay is not denial, Catherine, 100%. That does not mean that God has denied you something. It means that it means that you got some cycles you need to break in your life and you need to go before the Lord. Where do you need to go before the Lord? I think I heard some of you say the secret place. Doesn't everything boil back to that? Doesn't everything go back to have you been spending time with him in that place where you can hear from him, where you can glean from what he is trying to speak to you and say to you? Corey, good morning, brother. Y'all welcome in Real Talk, Real Jesus, Real Life. I was going one way, we're going this way today. We're talking about breakthrough. There's a lot of people who need breakthrough in their life. Amen? Silence doesn't mean that he has abandoned you. Because there's a lot of people make you feel like he's abandoned you. He hasn't. Get in his presence. The Lord is not slight concerning his promises. No, he's not. And everything has a time and a season under heaven. We see that in Habakkuk 2 and 3. Everything has its time and its season. But have you written things out to where it'll be plain? Did you go back a verse and actually write things out to where it's so plain that anybody who sees it could run with it?

SPEAKER_00 18:21

Is it so written out? Breakthrough requires you to push forth in faith.

SPEAKER_01 18:35

Even though your feelings are out of whack. You ain't feeling it. How am I gonna push forward in faith? I ain't feeling it. You may not feel healed, you may not feel very hopeful, you may not feel like anything is changing and nothing has changed. But faith does not begin with your feelings. Faith begins with what God has said. And if you go to Hebrews, if you go to Hebrews 11, once again, I did not prepare for this today. I should always be prepared for whatever is gonna come our way. One day I will learn to prepare. If you go to Hebrews, and Paul, I'm not talking about coffee, did uh you know what I'm saying? Hebrews. Hey, as a coffee joke for the coffee guy. All right. Hebrews 11. Now faith brings our hopes into reality and becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things that we long for. I'm gonna say that again. Faith brings our hopes into reality. So the things you're hoping for, the things you're believing for and hoping for, faith brings that hope into reality, and it becomes the foundation needed to acquire the things that you long for. That's faith. So that could be acquiring. You know, a lot of times in here we talk about acquiring the things you need to build that business. Acquire the things you need to be a better leader on the job or a better employee or a coworker, the things that you need to lead your household better, the things that you need to step into the ministry role God's called you into, whatever it is. Today, faith brings that hope of reality to become the foundation that's needed to step on that foundation and acquire the things that you're longing for in your healing, in your financial breakthrough, in bringing your marriage back together, and bringing the prodigal children back home, and seeing your neighbor's breakthrough happen, uh, or somebody at church that you know. Standing on faith is what brings this. It is all the evidence required to prove what is still unseen. Oh, I know why. Sorry, y'all. That should fix the freezing issues. I'm sorry if I was freezing up. Faith empowers us to see that the universe was created and beautifully coordinated. Faith. Because you can stand here and really look. I mean, you got a lot of questions about things. Well, faith is what lets you stand there and see the universe that was created and how beautifully coordinated it was by the power of God's words. By the power of God's words. And if some of you are still freezing, swipe out and swipe back in. And that should I'm froze? That's weird. That's very strange. Well, still freezing. Hmm. Well, that's two different internet sources. So I'm not a hundred percent sure what is going on. Sound is good, but the screen is froze. Well, I don't know. Omar says it's good on his end. Well, maybe so. Swipe out and swipe back in. Or and maybe all good here, you're good on my end. Thought it was me freezing. Alright, it should regulate now because I'm on a different internet source. So he spoke all the invisible realm and gave birth to all that is seen. So when the world was void and there was nothing, God spoke, and that gave birth to everything that is seen. We have to believe and we walk forward in that in faith. That's what we do. We're walking forward in faith. But faith did not begin with feelings. Amen. And Hebrews 11 and 1 reminds us of this faith is the substance of things hoped for, for the evidence of things not seen. That means before I see it, I must believe it. So before you see your healing, you have to believe that God wants to heal you. These are biblical principles I'm giving you. Biblical principles. You got to see it in here and believe it. Before you actually hold it in your hands, you have to trust that God is going to bring it. You need the rent money or whatever money you need. Well, as you're praying this morning, say, Lord, I'm going to hold my hands out as a sign to say that I trust you, because open hands mean that I trust you. All right, if somebody's like this, that's usually a sign that they don't, they're really nervous, or maybe they're cold, but but they're really nervous and they may not trust you what is going on. If somebody comes like this, this is a posture with your hands out like this. God, I trust you that you're going to bring into my hands what is needed today. Father, I trust you that you are going to bring into my hands what is needed for today, Lord. I trust you with it now. You have to go in faith. Before you feel it, you have to stand on his word. See, there's lots of things you got to do. You got to believe, you gotta trust him, and you got to stand on his word. And when you're doing those three things, you will see it, you will hold it, and you will feel it. But you got to be willing to do the other first. You can't sit there in that, woe is me, this is the way it's always gonna be, mentality and and expect change to come to you. That's not how that's going to work. You've got to stand up or rise, and you've got to speak different. You've got to walk different, you've got to talk different, you've got to look different, you've got to sound different by what you're saying. That's it, Sean. Step out of the boat onto that water today, but keep your eyes on him or you're gonna sink. Because as soon as you step out of the boat and you start walking, the enemy is gonna start saying, What are you doing? This is crazy. You look nutty. I don't think, you know, you you this is not the way you should do this. You know, this is not gonna work. It's not gonna work. And the enemy will try to take you back to times when, when, when, when doubt and fear came and you made a fail, or things didn't work out, or that, yeah, there's some sort of failure that happened in that moment. No, keep your eyes on Jesus and trust him with it. See, you got to trust him with your healing. You can't heal yourself. I can't heal you, but I can take you to the one who can. He is the one that comes and does the work in your life. We forget that sometimes. So many times we'll run off to a healing service because this big dude, I mean, somebody, a well-known guy. See, the difference between some of us and the well-known guy is the well-known guy is probably walking in faith and he knows what God can do. It's not the guy, it's the faith that he beholds. That faith is able, you're able to take on the faith that that person holds. That faith wasn't just for that guy or the or the lady or whoever. It wasn't just for that person. That faith is available for you to arise on the inside of you to step out of the boat today. Faith speaks before the breakthrough comes. Faith always has to speak. You have to speak in faith before your breakthrough begins to show up. I had to, and many of you know this story, maybe this is the seventh time you've heard it. When we were behind on rent last February, I'm like, Lord, we we didn't bring in enough for this. I got everything else covered. I don't know how this is gonna work. I don't know what we need to do. I'm working every day. And and those of you that are kingdom business builders, you bet you you really just trust God. And you're you're always working and you're always moving. But there's been many times that I've paid my team before I've gotten anything because I want to make sure that I'm stewarding things well. God, you got me. Lord, we got to bless the works of the hands of those that have decided to come alongside of us and do what you have called us to do. So all of this is getting paid, all those things. But I gotta, I need rent. I need rent, I need rent. Oh my gosh, I need rent. So I was on a journey back last year in 2025 to speak differently. And God had really been, He really been on me about speaking different over our situations and and walking things out in faith again. And so I started to pray. God, I thank you for sending more than enough. Lord, that we're moving from a season of just enough to more than enough, God. Father, I that you have break you have brought the rent money, and I thank you for it, Lord, that you have brought it unto us right now. And I thank you in the name of Jesus, Father, that it is paid and it is done, and that all our bills are paying on time every time, right now, in the name of Jesus. I just begin to declare things instead of being in that uh that that that posture of uh, God, we really need the rent and I don't know what we're gonna do, and I just can't. And he didn't bring it in the first couple days. He didn't bring it in the first 10 days, first 15 days. I could have gave up. By day 15, all right, well, this obviously doesn't work. But day 18, I had already come too far at this point. And I was like, if you're teaching me something, Lord, I'm gonna get this, Lord, that we are gonna have the rent paid in the name of Jesus. You bring everything on time every time. And I'm thanking you right now, Father, for your goodness and your mercy that you have. I mean, I mean, hello, change the way that you speak. I wasn't feeling it. Hello, I was not, but I was like, I've come too far and I'm gonna trust you. And on the 18th day of that month, we got a phone call from some friends of ours and said, Hey, we were praying and your faces came before us, you and Brandy. You and the Lord said that you're behind on something. What are you behind on? And I said, Bro, I hope you're sitting down, because it ain't the water bill. And I told him, he said, Okay. He said, give me just a little bit. By that afternoon, he sent me every bit of what was needed to be able to take care of the rent for February. It was a humbling moment for me because I'm a very pull things together with the works of my hands, you know, put my hands to the plow. Well, you know, if you don't work, you don't eat, kind of mentality. We're gonna get out here, we're going to, we're we're going to uh earn our keep, as they say. God didn't bring it that way. I kept praying in more. Lord, just bring in some jobs, bring in side jobs for me. I was pulling and pushing every way that I possibly could, and I had to give up. God said, I am creatively going to do this because I'm teaching you something. He wouldn't bring that on purpose because he wanted to bring it a different way, because he was, he was, he was showing me how to be humble again. He was showing me how to how to just be able to receive again. Because I'm one, I'll just I can just dish out all day, but when somebody wants to bless, it makes me feel awkward, makes me feel weird. Like I don't want to uh God's like, no, no, no, I'm teaching you how to receive again. And then that same year, you know, I had to, I did a little bit of the Lord opened the door for me to help with delivery service of sorts. Actually, that actually that was the year before. That was in December the year before. He had had me do like a part-time thing on it. I know I'm talking about finances now. A part-time delivery service. I be careful. I don't want to, you know, be careful what names I say on here. And the Lord spoke to me one day. I was just like, man, I was like, why? Why are we doing this? And there were some common themes that I was seeing in our lives that were taking place right then where it was out. So what what do you do in a in a in a seasonal delivery service? Well, I would pile boxes in my car and I would take them places and deliver them, scan them and deliver them, you know, because it's that busy time of year. And God said, I'm having you do this. Yes, it was supplementing our income to a degree, but he said, I'm having you do this because I'm teaching you how to serve again. So the season before he was teaching me how to be, how to how to be served and how to receive, he had to teach me first how to serve. You see how important it is to begin to learn the lessons of the seasons you're in? So I'm teaching you how to serve again. You scan the box, you deliver it, you're making people's day, you're bringing in what they ordered, or maybe what a family member sent that time of year for, you know, a gift. So he taught me how to serve, and then he took me through a season where he taught me how to receive. See, we have to learn how to do both. Maybe there's somebody in here that struggles with that this morning. Maybe you struggle with either somebody giving you something, or maybe you've gone through a season where you have been serving and you've been overlooked, or you feel like you didn't get enough recognition or something. Sometimes the Lord will, he will, he will begin to break down those things in your life to ensure that things are good and operating well in here and up here. All right. So I I shouldn't be serving just to be seen and to get recognized. Now, yes, we all love to hear an attaboy every now and again, but you serve because there's things that need to be done and you do all things as unto the Lord. So if you're serving in your church, let's say that you were serving in your church and something happened in your church and now you're church hurt, or or you're working really hard on your job and you're doing all the best that you can and you got laid off. You were one of the ones that got laid off, or you're the ones that got fired. And I don't even understand this. I was doing the best I could. Don't let those seasons wound you and hurt you so much that you don't go serve again. We do all things as unto the Lord. See, I'd been through seasons of hurt in my life, and God had to teach me how to serve again, and then he had to teach me how to receive. We have to stand in faith in all things. And that's what we're learning about this morning. And financial breakthrough, what since we're on something similar to that, what I was just talking about. Financial breakthrough is it's not about the money. It's not just about money, it's about trust. Financial breakthrough is about trust. Yes, healing breakthrough is about trust as well. But Philippians 4 19 says, My God shall supply all your need according to his riches and glory by Christ Jesus. Notice what it says here. It says the word supply. That means that he is the one that brings the supply. God knows how to get to you what you need. He said that he would supply it. And there's some people that want a financial miracle, but God is also working in your life on trust, on how to steward things well, on obedience. He's trying to bring you peace even through the midst of storms. So you could be learning all of those things all at one time because God is trying to teach you how to live according to biblical principles. Could it be that you go through certain seasons in your life when it feels like he's so far away, but yet the teacher is very close. The teacher is very close even in those moments when he feels so far away. Because the Bible tells me here in Philippians that he shall supply what is needed. He knows how to get to me what is needed. He could do it through unexpected provisions, like he did for our rent. He could do it through opening different doors of opportunities in your life. He could do it through wisdom and giving you a business idea or something that, I mean, there's a lot of people he's probably in this room that he has probably spoken to and he's given you an idea you haven't done anything with it. Could it be that you're still broke, busted, and disgusted? So we've heard that a few times. Could it be that you don't have what you feel like you need because you haven't done what you what it is he needs you to do? I'm telling you, all this stuff goes together. He can do it through favor in your life. He can do it through strategies that he gives you. He could do it through generosity from other people. Opportunities that you did not see coming. You can be in it to win it with the Lord, and you can be working on things, and he brings something to you. Like, Lord, where'd this come from? I've never seen this before. Everything has a time and a season under heaven. He knows what to give you, when to give it to you. 2 Corinthians 9 and 8. God is able to make all grace abundant toward you. God, he knows how to sustain us. He really does. He gives us the grace for what you're going through. If you're doing all that God has called you to do, he's giving you grace for the season. There's something burning on the inside of me for people to get biblical truth and biblical principles in their life, and your situations will begin to turn around. That doesn't mean you'll never face anything ever again if you start walking this way. You just know how to face things when they come your way. The reason a lot of people are going through things is because uh they're going through different things is because they they still don't know how to handle it when it comes their way. They, ha! You get into that survival mode, and it's like, whoa, what did we go through? What did we, what do we, I don't, I don't ever want y'all to just go through these morning charges and the different things that we do, and you've just heard something nice. All the other, you know, uh pastors and teachers and people that you've listened to, don't let it just become, you know, neat information for your life so that you can just recall it when you need to say it. No, you need to recall it and start to do it. Amen. That's what you gotta, that's what you gotta do. But don't let your financial pressures make you start talking like you're an orphan. I'm gonna say this again. Do not let your financial pressures in your life start making you talk like you are an orphan. You are not abandoned, you are not forgotten, and your source is not your paycheck. Y'all can't see the mic, but it's there. Your source is not your paycheck. Your source is God Almighty, and however he wants to provide for you, let him provide for you. Just make sure you're doing what you need to do. Faith without works is nothing. It's unalived, it has no life. Faith without works. But if you've got faith that God can bring your healing, it's gonna work out for you. If you have faith that God's gonna provide for you financially, it's gonna work out for you. If you have faith that God is gonna bring your marriage back together, it's gonna work out. Have faith. Have faith, have faith, have faith. And trust God with the results in the details. It may not come the way that you thought it was going to come, but it's gonna come. Your breakthrough is on the way. And don't be mad when it doesn't show up the way that you thought it was gonna show up either. Don't, don't, don't get mad. See what happens is God, you didn't, you didn't move. And he goes, Yes, I did. It didn't look the way you wanted it to look. See, you gotta watch out for that too. I gotta make sure that I, Lord, however this, however, this is gonna work out, it's gonna work out, and I'm gonna trust you. There's a lot of people that are thinking that God was just gonna give them something, and that was their prayer. You're just gonna give me something, you're gonna give me something. And he opens the door for work. He was like, Well, that ain't what I wanted to do. God said, Well, that's the opportunity I'm giving you because I have something to teach you now. Because maybe you need to learn how to serve again. Oh my God. Hello? I'm only telling you about situations I've been through in my own life. I know how my God works. I know how my father, I know how Abba Father is, and I thank him for the teachings that he has given me throughout my entire life to bring me into the place I'm in now. Yes, I'm still going through my seasons of teaching. You always will. And the teacher will continue to teach you if you let him. Are you letting him? You want situations and things to change. You got to let him. You got to let him teach you. Oh, my goodness. We're getting deep up in here today. But I this is that's why we call it real talk, real Jesus, real life. Because this is just really how it is. This is really just how it is. And if you believe him to the fullest extent, he gives you more than you could ever dream, hope, or ask for. He just will. That's just who he is. That's just who he is. This is just this is just the gospel. This is just living kingdom principles. You want to see the abundance. Stop chasing after the abundance. Stop chasing after the abundance. My gosh, I I uh what uh Ryan Lestrange had uh posted that yesterday. You know, uh true kingdom entrepreneurs aren't chasing money. They're chasing after what God called them to do. God is the one that brings the provision and the overflow. Hello? You gotta trust him with his part, and then you you gotta do your part and trust him with his part. It's a thing. If God's called you to do this thing, it doesn't matter what it looks like, go do it. Go do it. Go, go do it. You keep sitting here over, I'm on, I'll just pick this thing apart. No, just get on here and start doing it. God will show you what to do. He's gonna show you what to do. Look, Dave said, I built a food truck for our ministry, all right, and you had an ego buster event and you haven't pulled it out in two, I see you just so you type in there. See, sometimes God will God God will He'll He'll teach you things as you go. You know, in two years. Well, trust God with it. If it's something God's called you to do, pull it back out and get going, man. However, He's asked you, whatever He's asking you to do, you get out here and you step out and you just begin to do what He's asked you to do. Do what He's asked you to do. My God is still Jehovah Jirah, and He's still Jehovah Rapha. If you need financial breakthrough, just remember who He is. If you need your healing breakthrough, remember who He is today.

Genesis 22, 14, the Lord will provide.

SPEAKER_01 41:37

Exodus 15, 26, I am the Lord who heals you. Come on, y'all. Your healing breakthrough. I want to remind you of this this morning. Your healing breakthrough, it still belongs to Jesus. Your healing breakthrough that don't belong to you, the breakthrough part. It belongs to Jesus. Isaiah 53 and 5. By his stripes we are healed. Your healing breakthrough belonged to Jesus, and he did it. By his stripes, we're healed. Every beating he took brought healing to you. Everything he took on the cross brought something to you. It brought you life and life more abundantly. Matthew 8 and 17 is where Jesus took our infirmities and he bore our sickness. He did that. He did that. Do you believe it even when you don't see it? That's the having faith part. You got to have faith. And in James 5, in verses 14 and 15, that's where we call for the elders and we pray in faith and we anoint with oil. Healing is still a part of the heart of God. If you need to call in the elders and pray in faith together and anoint your head with oil and watch God move, then by golly, get in there and get it done. Yeah, on the cross it was completed. Peter said that we are healed. We were healed. Right then in that moment. You are healed. Now you need to start walking in faith and trusting Jesus to bring the fullness of that to your life. We trust God fully, whether healing is instant or it's progressive or it's part of a process. I'm gonna say that again. You have got to trust God fully, whether your healing is instant, whether it is progressive, or it's taking you through a process. You have to trust God with that. But we do not lower our expectations just because we. Have had disappointments in our life before. When you didn't seal it, you saw somebody get up and healed instantly. I saw an arch form in a lady's foot one time right in front of my very eyes. She was flat footed as could be. I saw her foot. It was flat. I know it was flat. It was right there in front of me. And then there was a man at our church. He was praying. He knew there was a lady with a flat foot, had her come up and sit in a chair. I want you to sit here for a moment. And he went around and prayed for other people, and miraculous things were happening in the room. And then he comes back to her towards the end and says, The reason I had you sit up here and watch first is because you needed to build your faith before God can do in your life what it is he needs to do. This morning, there is some people that needed to hear the stories come forth in faith so that your faith can arise so God can do in your life what he needs to do in your life. There's some people in here that need to know that God is good and his mercy endures forever. That's what the word tells us. But in that moment, what he did, her faith was arose, and he said, now, he said, that foot, he said, God wants to heal this foot in the mighty name of Jesus. And all he did was touch her foot. I saw this flat foot do like that. I saw an arch form right in front of my very eyes. You tell me my God ain't real. Tell me he ain't real. I have seen way too much at this point to I've seen, y'all, I have seen way too much in overseas missions here in America. I've seen God move way too much to ever stand here and be like, well, is he? Oh no, he is. Oh yes, he very much is. If you ain't got it yet, well, we're gonna keep praying for you. But I've seen too much to sway me otherwise. God can bring healing, but you need to sharpen your faith. You need to let faith arise in your life again. Past disappointments must not become your present unbelief. If things have happened in your life and they didn't go the way that you were supposed to, and those disappointments came, do not drag that into this new season. Let your faith arise. Get that junk and let leave all that behind you. Just because it's been a long road for you does not mean that breakthrough is not possible for you. Breakthrough is very much possible for every single one of us. He's no respecter of people, he's no respecter of persons. He wants to heal you, he wants to deliver you, he wants to set you free. He wants your bank account to be running over. But there's some things you might need to do to get yourself in the right posture to be able to receive what it is he wants to pour out. God can heal your body, he can heal your mind, he can feel your emotion, he can heal your emotions, he can heal you from past trauma, he can heal you from all of your chronic pain, your the hidden conditions, maybe that you don't even know are there, the doctors don't even know are there. Uh I mean, uh He can heal all the places.

SPEAKER_00 47:11

He's still God, He's still the same.

SPEAKER_01 47:16

From the beginning of time, when He spoke the whole universe into existence, he's still the same. Today. He's still the same. And the thing that I'm going to leave you with this morning is very important. When you're going through the battle, what do I say we need to do? Prayer and praise is how we fight. Prayer and praise is how we fight the battle. Sometimes your breakthrough begins with praise. That's the thing we don't want to hear. That's the thing we don't want to hear. He is a God of restoration. He comes to restore. But there's some people in here, if you want your breakthrough to come forth, maybe praise today. This is this is for somebody in here, okay? You've been crying and you've been worrying and you've been doubting and you've been overthinking things. Well, now it's time to stand up, dust your feet off, and start to praise again. Get your praise back, get your joy back. 2 Chronicles and 20, when Judah was surrounded, they praised before the battle was won. They praised before the battle was even won. And then over in Acts 16, Paul and Silas prayed and they sang praises. And what happened to the prison? The prison shook when you began to pray and praise. Praise is a declaration that God is greater than what is in front of you. Praise is your initial declaration. Why do you think Judah went out first in battle? Because their praise was a declaration that God was bigger than what was standing in front of them, and it set the tone for the whole battle. You gotta praise. You gotta praise. Praise positions your heart for the breakthrough. Ah. Praise positions your heart for the breakthrough. When you begin to praise, fear loses that grip over you. It's kind of hard to have be fearful when you're praising the Lord, when you're shouting, when you're giving glory, when you're putting on putting on those songs where you're praising. Hopelessness begins to weaken. Your perspective changes. Your faith begins to arise when you begin to praise and you begin to press in and you begin to shake some things off of you. Maybe it's time to praise. We're gonna praise in a minute. Usually we have our reflective time. That's where we just have that moment with the Lord. But I think this morning we're gonna praise for a minute. We're gonna praise. We're gonna shake some things off. But this morning, remember, you you you could be just just one one one prayer away. You could be one active obedience away. You could have one sudden move of God in your life away. You could have one door away or one healing touch away from your breakthrough. And the breakthrough is not hard for God. Are you in the right posture to receive the breakthrough? Are you in the right heart posture to receive the breakthrough you need to receive today? Hello? I had to be in the right heart posture to receive what I needed to receive. That's today's morning charge. Before you move on with your day, take a moment and let what you've heard settle into your heart. Faith isn't just something we talk about, it's something we live out in the ordinary moments of everyday life. Wherever today takes you, remember this: you don't walk into it alone. God is already ahead of you, working in ways you may not even see yet. Stand firm, walk in wisdom, lead with love, and don't forget who you belong to. Until next time, keep your heart anchored, keep your faith strong, and keep living out real talk, real Jesus, real life. We'll see you on the next morning charge.
