A short guide to breaking through in difficult situations

Read 2 Sam 5:17-20.
David called God the 'Lord of the Breakthrough' in this passage of scripture. It paints a picture of God piercing through an enclosed, tight space, to bring us to freedom - like how a baby breaks the waters to 'break out' of the confines of the womb to be born and 'set free'.

What do you need to break through?
It might be praying for loved ones to be saved, or for a bad habit that has been hard to shake, for healing of any sort, for a disturbing tendency to be afraid or angry or something else.
Whatever it is, God wants you to have victory over it.
It's what the Lord Jesus died and rose again for. God will spearhead our breakthroughs. It's time for us to appropriate Jesus' sacrifice for your freedom.
Believe, apply God's Word to your situation, and persevere.
