No matter what your situation, when you cry out to God, He will bring you out with His outstretched hand and with His mighty hand. God “Your Breaker” will give you the breakthrough you need when you cry out to Him.
These words of assurance were preached to those gathered under a huge tent within the confines of the National Sports Council, My Lord’s Hill, St Michael, last Thursday during the final night of a week-long crusade.
Held under the theme: Now Is The Time Crusade, it was hosted by a coalition of churches which included Carrington Wesleyan Holiness, whose pastor Reverend Clayton Springer played the role of chief facilitator; CEF Miracle Centre, The Ivy, St Michael (Reverend Peter Wood); Ellerton Wesleyan Holiness Church, St George (Rev. Livvy Trotman); Mayers Road Pentecostal Church (Pastor Mechelle Massiah); Pnuema Ministries, also in Mayers Road (Rev. Dr Ian Chandler), and Fellowship of Bible Churches, Gittens Road, Government Hill, St Michael (Rev. Stephen Gittens).
Speaker, Wesleyan minister Apostle Glenroy Collymore, comforted his listeners with the reassurance that “God is able to bring breakthrough in all situations” because His hand is not short and He is “well able” to deliver.
Collymore paid special attention to how God delivered the Israelites when they faced their enemies, including the Midianites and Assyrian army.
He told those gathered: “God has looked down on your circumstances and has seen your oppression. He has sworn to remove your burden from off your shoulders.”
He choose several texts during his sermon, including Isaiah 10:27, Judges 6, Isaiah 14:24-27 and Micah 2:12-13.
As he spoke concerning the oppression the Israelites suffered at the hands of the Midianites and Assyrians, the minister said Satan’s mission “has always been to steal, kill and destroy”.
“His intention is not just to rob you and move on, but to rob you and stay. His real intention is that you never get back on your feet. He wants to keep you down.
“His intention was to make Israel impoverished because of the Midianites, and so the Midianites entered into the land to destroy the Israelites, but the Israelites cried out to the Lord.”
Referring to God throughout his sermon as “The Breaker”, Collymore declared: “Every time you need a breakthrough there is The Breaker – The Strong Man. There are some enemies that will not move until they see a strong man.
“Some of you want to serve God but there is somebody pulling you back. God wants you to know you’re coming out in the mighty name of Jesus. With His outstretched hand He will bring you out.
“When you call on the name of Jesus, the devil is subject to you. When the Israelites cried out to the Lord there was a slaughter. Cry out to God for Him to deliver. He will bring you out by His outstretched hand and all the devil [will be able to do] is step aside and watch you pass by.”
Special ministry was rendered during the service by Ulric Neblett whose self-composed song My God Is Bigger Than That thrilled the congregation; and saxophonist Kishelle Rawlins, whose rendition received thunderous applause.
