We are called to possess our "promised land" but as Kyra says, "Could it be that my promised land and your promised land are one and the same? Or, at the very least, connected in some way?

Wouldn't it be good if we could mix the Old and New Covenants and get the best of both worlds? Some of the early church actually gave this a shot. Discover why Paul was so against this and why we need to clearly understand the purpose and role of the Old Covenant. This week we explore: - The concept of "Why not the best of both worlds?". - Why we aren't still connected to the Old Covenant. - The purpose of the Old Covenant. - If Jesus was our High Priest, why was he from Judah, not a Levite? - Why the Old Testament tabernacle was built to specific plans. - And why is that so relevant to living today? - Do we serve or worship in the church today?
El Shaddai reflects the character of God (Abundance, multiplication, fruitful, etc). Let El Shaddai manifest in your situation.
God's Favour-ites know their history. They understand how God has brought them from the darkest times, to this time - standing here now.
Covenants involve solemn vows that are made. Where do we find these vows for the New Covenant? Shouldn't they be in the New Testament? You may be surprised where God's promises are spoken. This week we explore - God's promises to Abraham. - Where the law fits. - How Paul put all this together. - Where the words of Jeremiah fit. - Why it is significant that 17 is higher than 15. - A practical example of the Blessing working in our lives.

In this series Pastor Peter unpacks all that it means to be in covenant and how it enables us to walk in confidence before God.

We must be convinced and confident that God's plans in our lives will flourish. It is necessary to align our lives with the word of God.

One of the difficult parts of understanding the Word of God is dealing with the names of places that are unfamiliar to us. Does it matter if we don't know the names of the cities that Paul visited? Do we need to know the difference between Achaia and Corinth? Pastor Peter shares some great practical tips which will make the word of God come alive for you.
Handling God's word as a "book" and "God-breathed" often means confronting our own theological biases and emotional attachments. But we need to kill off these "sacred cows" so we can fully embrace God's word to us today. Was Goliath over 9 feet tall, or just over 6 six feet tall? Was Paul fortunate or blessed? Did God speak of a future event in past tense? Did Jesus become sin, or just a sin offering? All of these and more are covered in today's lesson as we explore how to make bible translation decisions regarding: Idioms (I Kings 20:11) Emotional Attachments (Luke 22:43-44, 1 Sam 17:4) Theological Bias (Josh 6:2, Acts 26:2, 2 Cor 5:21)

What had Paul at his wits end? What was it that caused Paul to grab the quill and write in big bold letters to the church? By discovering what really stirred Paul, you discover what Paul understood to be the great opportunity for the church to walk in freedom. What was the "horse in the barn" that Paul said was the key to it all?
Reading Paul's letters is like listening to one side of a phone conversation. We need to develop the skill of reading with a questioning mind because the bible is both a book and God-breathed.
When Jesus told the parable of the Prodigal Son, there were so many twists and turns to the story. Listen to this amazing retelling of the parable as you are introduced to the two sons, Pig Farmer and his brother Captain Cold-Shoulder!

Many people come away from the parable of the persistent widow with the wrong understanding that misses the key point and can have their prayer life damaged. The bible comes to us using multiple genres or styles. Handling each style appropriately is a skill that enables us to get God's best out of each passage. By learning how to handle parables you will be treating God's word as a book, whilst enabling the "God-breathed" aspect to fully impact your life.
God has told us that our church is to be Breakthrough, not only by name, but by nature.So what does it look like to be a community bringing God's breakthrough love and power to our family, friends and community?
Dios le dijo a Josu que el secreto de su xito en la tierra prometida era meditar en la Palabra De Dios. Pero entonces, Por que dijo Dios qu su Palabra no iba a apartarse de la boca de Josu? No debera haberle dicho a Josu que no era para apartarse de su mente? Meditar no significa "pensar" en la Palabra? Descubre cmo aprender a hablar la Palabra De Dios nos da poder sobre los pensamientos de miedo y preocupacin que nos presionan. ----God told Joshua that the secret to his success in the promised land was to meditate on Gods Word.But then, why did God say His word wasnt to depart from Joshuas mouth?

When you are facing a battle, don't make the mistake and presume that you are dealing with the same issues that you have previously. When the disciples asked why they couldn't heal the boy, Jesus said that this "kind" only comes out by prayer. The wisest thing you can do is get God's wisdom regarding what you are facing and His plan for dealing with it.
When the disciples couldn't get a boy delivered, they didn't try to justify their lack of success. Instead they asked the perfect question: "Why couldn't we do it?" We need to learn how to ask the right questions and position ourselves for God to speak to us. Because when we may be focussing on why God "won't" do something, God is trying to get us to enlarge our faith for all that He wants us to do.
In order to build strong foundations on the Word of God, it is vital to know two key things about the bible: 1. It is a book, and2. It is God-breathed.
Do you ever wonder why your prayer doesn't get the results you expected? When the disciples finally asked Jesus why they couldn't heal a sick boy, His answer seemed perplexing. Did Jesus really say that they needed to have Faith as small as a mustard seed - or is there something else about the mustard see that He was referring to?
How can it be a good thing for us that Jesus became annoyed with the disciples and the people for not being able to deliver a young boy? Discover how we should rejoice in this because: 1. It gives us insights into Jesus and His desires AND 2. It reveals that Jesus really did believe that the disciples were equipped to deal with it.

In Part 1, Jay shared how his striving to live a good life as the "perfect pastor's kid" led him to feeling burnt out and a failure. But what is the right way to live out our good works? How can we do it without becoming worn out?

Guest Speaker: Cameron Grant from Confident Faith Today in the western world we live in a society that is heavily influenced by the philosophy of religious pluralism; the view that all the worlds religions are equally valid. As such, our secular culture is extremely hostile to the particular truth claims of Christianity. The idea that Jesus Christ alone is the one and only way to God and heaven; the one and only means of salvation and forgiveness, is viewed by many in our society as intolerant, exclusive, offensive, arrogant and therefore totally unacceptable. As Christians looking to share the truth in love, how do we respond to this challenge of religious pluralism? How should we answer the objection, Is Jesus really the only way?

The prophet Isaiah had a revelation of God's plan for His people. He saw them turning deserts into gardens as they brought life wherever they went. In this message Ps Peter shows how God does not look for those who are already strong and powerful to work with.

In this message Pastor Peter shares how we have been empowered by the Holy Spirit to cry out "Abba" to our Heavenly Father. But what does that mean? And why did Paul choose an Aramaic word for us to call out to God as our father? Some say that this word means "Daddy" but you will discover how it means way more than that.

But, God has also told us to be honest - by saying what HE says.

We have received authority to kick out demons. But it is important we don't make these mistakes about how we approach and deal with demons. Do you understand the difference between demon possession and demonisation?
When Jesus called the original twelve disciples he said that it was so they could do three things: 1. Be with Him. 2. Go out and preach. 3. Receive authority to kick out demons. We have been given authority to drive out demons so we can fulfil the mission of Jesus in reaching the Gentiles.
Just like the classic saying, "Don't bring a knife to a gun fight!" it is important for us to not approach Jesus and still have the attitudes of the Old Covenant.
In this special Mother's Day message by Christine Lewis, we are called to be those who influence those around us - our families, friends, neighbours. But to ensure we are a positive influence to them, we need to choose carefully the influences we allow to come into our lives.
In this message by Katelyn Grant, we are reminded that through prayer we are able to influence our nation. This is not just our privilege but also our responsibility.
Have you ever seen someone make a clear statement even though they never spoke? See how the Apostle Paul tells us we can make a huge statement when we take communion.
April 17, 2022 | Breakthrough Church, Melbourne, Australia HOW GRACE IS LIKE A SEE-SAW In this special Easter presentation Ps Peter demonstrates how grace is like a see-saw. God intends that as His unmerited favour pours down on your life, His power to live a blessed life fulfilling your calling rises. We also recommend you watch this message which Ps Peter recommends as a follow up: FROM A RUSTY KNIGHT TO A KUNGFU MASTER where He shares how God we can live out the life that God has planned for us. https://youtu.be/TsWaI2FZ4bo
Ezekiel's prophetic ministry is particularly relevant to the church today, because he was dealing with a people who were living their lives in Babylon. We also are strangers in this world - because our citizenship is in heaven. But how do we approach our time in our "Babylon". The Israelites saw themselves as having no hope - as dry bones. God sees you as an army influencing the world today.
Two cities only 70 km apart - but they receive very different "report cards" from Jesus. What was that made them so different? And why was being an influence such a key issue?
In this special meeting Katelyn Grant shares how we are to be "marching on" as we pursue God's plan for the church to be influencers in the world. This message was in honour of the life and ministry of Ps David Reekie who along with his wife Olive, led Breakthrough church for nearly 30 years before his passing away in 2006. You can listen to one of Ps Reekie's classic messages "Pulling the King's Carriage" which is just as applicable today - if not more so - as it was when he first shared it. https://youtu.be/2Iw0dx65-pY
In honour of Pastor David Reekie. This classic message is just as vital for the church today, as the day he shared it. Are you ready to "Pull the King's Carriage"? This message was referred to by Katelyn Grant in her message "Marching On" https://youtu.be/sd6nOmjjS90
A powerful dramatic monologue which highlights how God has all we need "in the bag" to accomplish our mission on earth but we need to not allow the cares of this life stop us from laying hold of them. It is performed by Brooke Lewis as part of the message by Christine Lewis - It's in the Bag. https://youtu.be/Zv3iTQy7d2M
God has tasks for each of us accomplish whilst on earth - and He has provided everything we need for their fulfilment.https://youtu.be/Zv3iTQy7d2M
What's the difference between a group of people joining together and a group of disciples of Jesus? Disciples share a common understanding because we all bank in the same heavenly bank. This means we really get each other and we can encourage each other in a way that no-one else can.
When we read God's promises the New Testament, it is easy to personalise them - to make them God's promise to me as an individual. But you may be surprised at how many times the promise was given to disciples as group.
What's the difference between a group of people joining together and a group of disciples of Jesus? The body needs each other.
What's the difference between a group of people joining together and a group of disciples of Jesus? When disciples get together they minister the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
What's the difference between a group of people joining together and a group of disciples of Jesus? Disciples are committed to other disciples.
What's the difference between a group of people joining together and a group of disciples of Jesus? Well, it starts with love.
When Jesus called His disciples to follow Him - He immediately joined them in a group with other followers. When he sent them out to minister, he sent them two-by-two.
Disciples love God's word but not like the Cookie Monster loves cookies. Discover the four ways in which a disciple will engage with the word of God.
The purpose of this message is that as a child of God we understand that an effective prayer is based on having a correct motivation, forgiving and having faith.
It is important that we understand how to pray and be effective in our prayer. The prayer we pray before we come to God with our requests is very important. It is the Prayer of Preparation.
Through this teaching we learn that there are several types of prayer. We need to know which one to use in each of life's situations.
In reality there is no such thing as "A disciple" because a disciple follows the teaching and lifestyle of someone. So the full term is, "A disciple of Jesus".
The power is in the seed of the word of God to grow and bear fruit, but it is our responsibility to be good soil.
When the pressure comes from the left and right staying focused on our mission of DISCIPLING will keep us moving forward.
