The Year of Breaktrough


" I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron:
And I will give thee the treasures of darkness, and hidden riches of secret places, that thou mayest know that I, the LORD, which call
thee by thy name, am the God of Israel. " ( Isaiah 45:2-3 )

This year will be a Year of Breakthrough. Breakthrough in spiritual life, economy, family relations in everything of our struggles. When this message was given, I said in my heart "I do, yes Lord.. I do need a breakthrough....!!". I don't know, It just sound so nice in my ears. I have been waiting for these word. It seems represents all of my struggles lately. I have a lot of problems nowadays. Economy, my future, families, friends, ministry etc. It just make me headache, dizzy. But this message makes me awake. I realize that God loves me so, that He would do and provide everything that I need. This year will be a great year, a breakthrough of all my life. This is what I believe and prayed.

Humility

Acknowledging that achievement results from the investment of others in our lives.

You’ve often heard it said, “There’s no I in Team.” Truly, in order to be successful,
an athletic team needs to play as one unit, not just as individuals, no matter
how talented those individuals may be.

Being humble does not mean that we have to put ourselves down; it simply means that we recognize the value of others in our lives.

A humble person is usually someone we enjoy being around because they avoid arrogance and are genuinely interested in others.

To practice Humility, “I will” statements for children and adults alike --

I will…

  • Remember what others have done for me

  • Not boast or brag

  • Serve without being recognized

  • Pass on praise to others

  • Take responsibility for my actions

Practice humility by focusing outward, recognizing how important others are in our lives, and by letting them know they are valued.


“To become truly great,
one has to stand with people,
not above them.”

-Charles de Montesquieu
