Helen Calder: "Breakthrough! An Unexpected Move of God Is on the Way"


Helen Calder
May 7, 2023

From the Desks of Steve Shultz and Julie A. Smith:

Steve ShultzGod is always on the move...and we will see Him move mightily in breakthrough during this month and season, and in ways we've never seen before.

Do you believe God has breakthroughs just for you...even now?

Helen Calder of Australia gives us a very present word for this season as she says:

The Holy Spirit may be speaking to you through this statement right now: God has more breakthroughs available to you than you are currently aware of. So, what is that for you? What is stirring in your heart that the Holy Spirit is bringing to your attention today? Consider this question: "What if God has a breakthrough for me, but I haven't perceived it yet?"

That's a thought-provoking question to us all...are there breakthroughs God wants to bring our way...that we aren't aware of?

Have you been praying for a breakthrough recently? I believe this is a promise for us all to lay hold of right now: "The LORD will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways" (Deuteronomy 28:7).

God Has a Another "Move" for You

God has a "move" with your name on it, and you can have confidence that He has a gift of grace for you, your family and your circumstances. It's a theme we see throughout the Bible, again and again: The Lord leads His people to face the impossible. Then, just when it looks like "game over," He intervenes with a miracle.

When you think about it, God always has another "move" available to Him, for He is the Master of the impossible!

It's Not "Game Over"

As an example, let's look at Moses when he led the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt. The Egyptian army was pursuing them, and chariots were bearing down on them. Finally, they were trapped between their enemy and the Red Sea. There was literally nowhere to go! And just when all seemed lost, God had another move—one that no one, least of all the chariot riders, was expecting. It was a pathway through the Red Sea.

Just as with Moses, God is present to break us out of our "stuck places" and release faith, even in impossible circumstances. (Photo via Flickr)

The board game of chess leads to a moment when one player declares, "Checkmate!" Then, it is "game over." This means that the most important chess piece—the king—is now cornered, and it's impossible to make another move. But in the exciting games where there is a battle of wits, there can be an unexpected turnaround! Perhaps you can make another move, unforeseen by your opponent, and the outcome changes. Likewise, there are times in life when there doesn't appear to be a clear way forward, where it seems like we are stuck, and the enemy comes into our situations and whispers, "Checkmate."

However, we serve in a Kingdom that has unlimited power. God steps in and He says, "I have another move." It's one that no one expected, and the situation changes, because He's not confined to our "game board"—our earthly boundaries and limitations. We can always be confident that our God has moves that we don't know about.

This has been our own story and our testimony, again and again. When we have been stuck with no way forward, God has made a way. Then we realize, with wonder, that the Lord had another move—one we did not expect! Even when we journey imperfectly (which we do), stumbling along, He is full of grace to land us in that place of faith and breakthrough (Psalm 37:23-24).

Today, He is awakening faith in you—and perhaps He is opening your eyes to see new possibilities.
He wants you to know that one of His names is "God of the Breakthrough" (2 Samuel 5:20).

Why Are Breakthroughs Delayed Sometimes?

Of course, there are times when we want a breakthrough, but God wants to take us on a journey of transformation. The difference is that a breakthrough is sudden, but a transformation is gradual.

Transformation takes place over a period of time in which we cooperate with God. Naturally, we want the "quick fix," but His higher purpose for us is that we become like Jesus. So, He is working on our character and taking us from "glory to glory" (2 Corinthians 3:18). While this happens, we increase in faith toward the breakthrough. But here's a thought for us right now, which I believe is from the Holy Spirit: God has more breakthroughs available to you than you are currently aware of. (Photo via Pixabay)

The Queen Was the Key to the Breakthrough

In the book of Esther, one woman stood between a powerful enemy and the preservation of her nation. The enemy of the Jews, Haman, thought he had a "checkmate" in hand, but then Queen Esther moved into place. She stood in the gap to petition the king. The identity of the queen was the key to victory, and Haman didn't see it coming—because God always has another move, and often an unexpected one.

As it was in Esther's story, so it is in your own! Your identity as a royal member of God's household, and as His child, is the key to breakthrough.

God Has a Breakthrough for You

The Holy Spirit may be speaking to you through this statement right now: God has more breakthroughs available to you than you are currently aware of. So, what is that for you? What is stirring in your heart that the Holy Spirit is bringing to your attention today? Consider this question: "What if God has a breakthrough for me, but I haven't perceived it yet?"

Let's declare together: My Father is moving in that situation (name it). Jesus is working in my family, my ministry...(and whatever else comes to mind). And He is not through with me yet. It's not "game over," because my God has another move!
