My dear Brother and sister in Christ, I greet and bless everyone in the name of Jesus Christ our God, who created and formed us and who never ever forgets us. The blessed word that God has given for you, today is from the book of Micah 2:13 “Micah 2:13 The one who breaks open the way will go up before them they will break through the gate and go out. Their king will pass through before them, the Lord at their head.”
My Dear Brother and Sister, From the above context we learn that God will assemble, all His children together, He Will gather together, all the tribes of Jacob; gather together, the remnant of Israel; and He will bring them together like the sheep of Bozrah. (Bozrah) means sheepfold. God who is a good Shepherd, wanted to lead all the sheep, like a flock in the midst of their pasture, the sheep would be noisy with shepherd to lead them. And Yahweh the God of Israel, the breaker, will go up before them. While the people of God, will breakthrough, and pass along through the gate, their King will go before them, with Jehovah at their head.” The Lord God of Israel will go before them to break all the barriers that stand before them and prevent them from receiving the blessings of God.
My Dear Brother and Sister, These verses may also refer to the captivity of Israel and Judah. The Lord would not only bring them out from their captivity but would open their way, to God the Father, Yahweh by breaking the fetters of Satan. Thus Jesus will go before and the people will follow Him. He will break through the enemies that would stop them from going to heaven. The Breaker refers to the Messiah the King, who opens the way, and He shall go before them to guard them, to protect them, to liberate them, and they will break out, pass through the gate, and go out liberated.
My Dear Brother and Sister, Maybe your family is scattered. Your husband may be working abroad. Your children may be in a hostel and your are alone in your native place. Our God says, “ I am a God near at hand, and also a God afar off.”He will not only take care of your husband, who is working abroad but also take care of your children in the Hostel and will also take care of you, who is left alone to manage your house. So never worry because the Lord who goes before you will break all the obstacles that you face each day of your life. You may have a financial deficit and problem with your children as they may not do well in their studies and since your husband is far away you may suffer from loneliness. God is in control of your life. Hold on to Jesus who is your refuge and strength. A very present help in trouble. He will remain with you always. For He cares for you and your family.
My dear Brother and Sister, May be till today those of you reading this message, might have been leaning on your own understanding. Therefore You might have been facing many hardships in your life. Just allow Jesus to reign in your hearts and allow Him to direct your steps then you will enjoy a blessed life. The Lord says, “Low I am with you always, even to the end of the age. I will not leave you until I have performed what I have promised you.” The Lord wants to break all the barriers that stand as hurdles for your progress. The Lord says, Behold I am sending an angel before you to remove all the hurdles that block your way. The Bible says, “ In all thy ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct your steps.” Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. Commit your works unto the Lord and thy thoughts shall be established. The Lord will perfect that which concerns you. God bless you.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Lord thank you for going before us and breaking all the barriers that prevent us from going forward in our life. God guide us in this wilderness life and help us in our struggles. Help us to pass through the gate that is set before us and go out peacefully to our desired destination.
In Jesus name we pray,
Amen.
