This program has been made possible by the friends and partners of Joyce Meyer Ministries.

So the first key to breakthrough is, first of all pray, we always pray, that's part of everything.

And then, don't just pray for God to fix it for you.

Pray for God to show you truth, to show you what the real issue is.

I do what I do because I've seen God's power transform my own life and he will do it for you.

The key to everything is found in God's Word.

I'm Joyce Meyer and I believe that God can heal you everywhere you hurt.

Is there anybody in this building today or in the overflows or watching by television that you need to break through in your life?

How many of you are asking God to give you a breakthrough?

Well, I said last night it was going to be a happy night.

You're going to like everything I said today, you probably won't like everything I say.

It might not be quite as happy right now, but it's one of those messages that if you follow it a year from now or two years from now or six months from now, you're going to be a whole lot happier than you are right now.

Everything that we hear is not always something that feels good.

Sometimes we need to hear things that make us squirm in our seats a little bit.

Maybe even get a little bit mad at the preacher for a few minutes.

Because you know when they tell us something we don't want to hear, it's easy to get mad at them.

But I believe that you all see the truth in what I'm going to say.

The main thing that I want to say is that if you want any kind of a breakthrough in your life, financial breakthrough, breakthrough in your health,

breakthrough in relationships, whatever it is that you might want to breakthrough in.

First thing you should always do is pray, but never pray and ask God to do anything for you.

If you don't intend to listen to what He probably is going to tell you to do, that will ultimately bring that breakthrough.

I'm going to say that again.
