WHEN THE MASTER OF BREAKTHROUGHS SHOWS UP
2 Samuel 5:17 Now when the Philistines heard that they had anointed David king over Israel, all the Philistines went up to search for David. And David heard of it and went down to the stronghold. 18 The Philistines also went and deployed themselves in the Valley of Rephaim. 19 So David inquired of the LORD, saying, “Shall I go up against the Philistines? Will You deliver them into my hand?”
And the LORD said to David, “Go up, for I will doubtless deliver the Philistines into your hand.”
20 So David went to Baal Perazim, and David defeated them there; and he said, “The LORD has broken through my enemies before me, like a breakthrough of water.” Therefore he called the name of that place Baal Perazim.[a] 21 And they left their images there, and David and his men carried them away.

The above passage shows us that God brought breakthrough to David against the Philistines. From David’s life we see what kind of man we need to be to see breakthrough against the barriers before our lives:

Eight Truths About the Anointing
by Eddie Lawrence
Acts 10:38 how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.(NKJV)
In looking at Acts 10:38 as Peter ministers to Cornelius and his household, we see how the Anointing operated in Jesus while he walked the Earth. We also can apply these truths to how the Anointing works in Christ’s body (believers) in the Earth today. Following are eight truths with the part of the verse they originate. Add your own thoughts and comments and enjoy teaching them to others.
1. It is God who Anoints
"how God anointed"
-Men may appoint you but only God can anoint you.
-No man can receive anything except be given from above.
2. It is his human children whom He Anoints
"Jesus of Nazareth" This is the designation that points to Jesus’ humanity.
-People are anointed by God to continue the message of Jesus to humanity.
3. He Anoints with the Holy Spirit
"with the Holy Spirit"
-The Holy Spirit covers, comes upon, endues, seals, and fills believers.
-Regardless of the order people debate these things happen, the exciting thing is that they do happen and they happen as a result of God’s goodness to us.
