Before the Breakthrough: The FIRSTs That Unlock God’s THENs
In this episode, we explore Isaiah 58:5–10 and uncover a powerful truth for the New Year: God’s blessings follow God’s order. Everyone wants the “THENs” (the light, the healing, the answered prayers) but Scripture shows us that these promises unlock only when we embrace the “FIRSTs.” Compassion, justice, humility, and surrender are not optional disciplines; they are the foundation of a breakthrough year.
We walk through each of the four key FIRSTs God calls us to: breaking chains, loving the hurting, removing the poison from our hearts, and giving ourselves fully to others. When these are in place, God’s THENs follow like dawn after a long, cold night. This episode challenges us to step into the New Year not with resolutions, but with alignment, so we can walk in the life God desires for us.
Experience a New Life in Jesus Christ
If you have not yet experienced the life-changing power of a relationship with Christ, we invite you to open your heart to Him today. Embrace the truth of His resurrection and embark on a journey of transformation, guided by His presence and fueled by His mission of love and redemption.
The Bible teaches us in Romans 10:9-10 that “If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart one believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth one confesses, resulting in salvation.”
Do it today and start enjoying a new life in Jesus Christ.
Take the next step in your spiritual growth. Unlock God’s truth in a deeper way and strengthen your walk with Christ. Subscribe now to receive life-changing lessons from Second Ridge Ministries.
