Provoking Uncommon breakthrough
SERMON TITLE: PROVOKING UNCOMMON BREAKTHROUGH
ANCHOR SCRIPTURE: GENESIS 18:1-15 (10-14)

Introduction
Everyone at some point in their lives have that one thing that bothers them so deeply that they would only wish they happen by magic. There are uncommon problems that have limited many from advancing to a higher level where God wants us to be. It is God’s will and desire that His children are blessed beyond measure, irrespective of our color, background and beliefs. If not so, why does God allow the sun to shine on the good and on the evil? God truly desires that we should be blessed in all works of life, in marriage; He desires that we are fruitful, in business and career He desires that we expand and break out from the North to the South, East and west, in Ministry; He desires that we reach out to millions of souls and depopulate hell, etc. Why then is it almost impossible and difficult for many to attain the height that God wants them in?
Breakthrough is quite easy to understand, it is an act of breaking through and obstacle.
For a great door and effectual is opened unto me, and there are many adversaries – 1 Corinthians 16:9
Abraham was in a predicament that many would have considered shameful, he was mocked, he was questioned, he was cheated, he was manipulated, and he was threatened. Though he had all things, but he had no child of His own. He needed an uncommon breakthrough for that uncommon problem. The predicament of Abraham and his wife Sarah was such that everything around them proved impossible that even Sarah lost hope. She was no longer like other women, I bet she no longer saw her period, she had lost the fire in ever young woman, she had lost the passion to meet with her husband, she was completely hopeless.
Uncommon problems need uncommon breakthrough that can only be brought about by the hand of God. If you need the hand of God to move on your behalf today, there are certain steps to take. Tonight, I’ll be pointing out three steps that

    In the short story “The Republic of Tricksterism,” the author Paul Seesaquasis suggests that equality is obtainable through a change in heart and not from the confining laws set in place by the government. To begin, the author uses Uncle Morris, a mixed-blood shapeshifter, better known as the trickster, to convey the theme. Uncle Morris started the movement called The Republic of Tricksterism where he combatted Tobe and his rules of status. He advocated for mixed and full heritage rights, demonstrating true equality. Instead of running for office and winning through politics, his goal was to change the minds of the people where it truly matters and not let the laws in place define them as pure blood and mixed.…

    Like anything in life, faith starts out for most as a journey. Often growth in faith is so gradual it is hardly noticeable. There’s no thundering voice of God striking down the disbelievers, but rather small miracles like getting an A on a test with little preparation. It is only self reflection faith grows because of struggles in life. In A Prayer for Owen Meany by John Irving, John Wheelwright’s faith and his belief in miracles juxtaposes Owen Meany’s innate beliefs. John Irving follows John Wheelwright’s growth in faith and miracles and highlights Owen’s steady support.…

    Besides, Jesus already defeated them, making a public spectacle of them (Col. 2:13-15), and has made those who believe and obey His Gospel more than conquerors (Ro. 8:37). We have gained a surpassing victory because the Father in Heaven set His love upon us through His beloved Son. By God’s grace through faith, we have been made joint-heirs with Christ Jesus the Lord, and He is not ashamed to call us His brothers and sisters (Ro. 8:17; Heb. 2:11). This book focuses on just that—living in this world as joint heirs with Christ, as more than conquerors through His love for…

    Health care innovations occur across a spectrum, ranging from small changes that improve some aspect of health care to major shifts that have sweeping effects on the entire health care industry. The latter type of change is often called disruptive innovation, a concept introduced in the 1990s by Clayton M. Christiansen of Harvard Business School to describe what happens when a new technology or business model causes the existing marketplace to change in fundamental ways. For example, in health care, disruptive innovation may involve technologies, products, or services that are cheaper, simpler, and more convenient, making it possible for less-expensive professionals to provide advanced services in affordable prices, or even for patients to…

    Theology of Missions

    • 2325 Words
    • 10 Pages

    The Bible chronicles mans fall from what God created him to be, and God’s desire to restore a sinful man unto Himself through missions. Even though man was originally made perfectly in the image of God, man would eventually succumb to his free will and his own selfish desires. Once man allowed evil into his heart, fellowship with God was broken, along with His heart. Through His sovereign grace and mercy, God seeks to restore order to His earthly kingdom. We find God’s plan and outline in the pages of His word as He makes a way for man to be redeemed from the chains of sin. The awesomeness of the situation is that God allows us to be part of the mission to reach out and share the Gospel to a lost and dying world. Ultimately, the mission of God finds its fulfillment in man’s worship and service to God in His kingdom.…

    Harlem Reflection

    • 401 Words

    One specific insight that contributed to my prayer for the world was a comment in a TED talk that we watched about cultural appropriation. A student described the unique sights, sounds, and smells of Harlem. This student’s perspective was contradictory to another’s, who only knew of the neighborhood what he heard by word of mouth. This flawed view consisted of solely danger and poverty. When the student with the flawed view heard a real description of Harlem, he was awed into remarking, “Show me THAT Harlem”. This remark partly encapsulates how I’ve prayed for the world. One of the biggest battles we can fight mentally is combating ignorance. I learned to see the good in any environment, as well as recognize present harmony, as Mrs. Eddy says in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures page 470, “…Science knows no lapse from nor return to harmony”. Through reading and reflecting on the Christian Science Monitor, I grasped a deeper meaning of harmony and the way it’s expressed in our ever-changing…
