HOW TO UNLOCK THE SECRET OF BREAKTHROUGH

Part 1

1.  FAITH, THE FIRST KEY TO BREAK THROUGH
So David asked God, “Should I go out to fight the Philistines? Will you hand them over to me?” The Lord replied, “Yes, go ahead. I will hand them over to you.” 14And once again David asked God what to do. “Do not attack them straight on,” God replied. “Instead, circle around behind and attack them near the poplar trees.  1 Chronicles 14:10, 14 (NLT)

“God did it!” David exclaimed. “He used me to burst through my enemies like a raging flood!” So they named that place Baal-perazim (which means “the Lord who bursts through”). 
1 Chronicles 14:11 (NLT)

Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.  
Romans 10:17 (NIV)

Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.
Psalm 119:105 (CEV)

2.  ACTION, THE SECOND KEY TO BREAK THROUGH  
My brothers, what good is it for someone to say that he has faith if his actions do not prove it?  Can that faith save him?  17So it is with faith; if it is alone and includes no actions, then it is dead. 26So then, as the body without the spirit is dead, also faith without actions is dead.  James 2:14, 17, 26 (GNB)

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not fall, because it had its foundation on the rock. 26But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell with a great crash."  
Matthew 7:24-27 (NIV)

3. THE 15 MINUTE BREAK THROUGH
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us… Ephesians 3:20 (NKJV)

Quiet Your Mind
But I have learned to feel safe and satisfied, just like a young child on its mother's lap. Psalm 132:2 (CEV)

Focus Your Mind
Be joyful and sing as you come in to worship the LORD! 4Be thankful and praise the LORD  as you enter his temple.  Psalm 100:2-4 (CEV)

Pray Your Mind
Don't worry about anything, but pray about everything. With thankful hearts offer up your prayers and requests to God. 7Then, because you belong to Christ Jesus, God will bless you with peace that no one can completely understand. And this peace will control the way you think and feel.  Philippians 4:6-7 (CEV)

Renew Your Mind
Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.  Romans 12:2 (NIV)
