UPSIDEDOWN
excerpted from Pastor Rex Galfo(Missionary to Indonesia)
Indonesia
TURNED. With the power of God, we as Christianshave to power to
turn the world upside down.
Gods Word
and Minis-
try are not
d i r e c t e d
towards a singular
person, but to all
believers. We needto work, help, and
pray together, pos-
sessing the com-
passion of our Lord
and Savior Jesus
Christ. The Book
of Jude states And
some have compas-
sion, making a difference. You and I can
make the world upside down, but only if
we have the power of God.
I. The Power of Prayer and SupplicationChristian life without
prayer is dead.
How often do you
pray for the ministry?
How often do we pray
for the workers of our
church, for our Pas-
tor? The Book of Acts
features Christians
turning the world up-
side down because of prayer. Prayer is
Power! If you want miracle to happen to
your ministry, you need to pray and ask
for the Power of God. If you want people
to be saved, pray. If you want a change
of life, pray. If you want something to be
done, pray. Prayer is the key.
II. The Power of
the Holy Ghost
But ye shall
receive power, af-
ter that the Holy
Ghost is come
upon you TheHoly Ghost was
given for three rea-
sons. First is to em-
power the worker.
Dont be discour-
aged about the
people minister to,
dont be afraid to
knock outside huge doors, dont be dis-
mayed at people who promised to come
to church but dont, dont be afraid of
the scorching sun as you walk the streets
while leading lost souls to Christ. Forthy work shall be
rewarded. Second is
to empower the mes-
sage of the gospel,
and third is to em-
power the preacher.
God has given all the
power that we need
to tell his message.
III. The Power of the Gospel
The Book of Acts is about Chris-
tians who turn the world upside down
because of the power of the Gospel. It
could also happen today because the
God they serve is the same God we serve
today.
Dont be afraid of the
scorching sun as you walk
the streets while leading
lost souls to Christ for your
work shall be rewarded.

LESSON 11: THE TEST: WHERE BREAKTHROUGHS HAPPEN
Lesson
SUNDAY SCHOOL SERIES:
LESSON 11: THE TEST: WHERE BREAKTHROUGHS HAPPEN
We can talk endlessly about verses and mindsets and examples
and
Faith Breakthroughs. But there will come that time when well
either
use Gods promise to face our walls or retreat into defeat.
The truth of the matter may be some-
thing none of us wants to hear: No
breakthrough is complete until the
testing comes. In fact, this is where
the three steps of discovering, choosing, and
sharing Gods promises come together to
form the weapon that finally overcomes the
wall.
The testing is the proving ground of the
breakthrough. It is the fire that forges the
separate elements into the steel strong
enough to break down walls. (James 1:2-3)
I. AN AMAZING __________ OF A FAITH
BREAKTHROUGH
Just like what we are all prone to do, when
times get tough and Gods plan is out of
sight, the prophet of God faced a moment of
testing. Habakkuk was unable to hear God,
to see God, or to understand. He joined his
people in wondering why God was somehow
hidden from what was going on. (Habak-
kuk 1:2)
In our darkest moments, we wonder
whether God is even paying attention. In
Habakkuks case, it got even worse. Habak-kuk heard from God, but
it was not what he
wanted to hear: The Almighty God had just
told him that things were going to get worse,
not better. Hows that for the opposite of a
health-and-wealth message! Its like praying
that God will take away an illness a friend is
facing, only to watch our friend get worse. It
is in these moments when we pray and get
the wrong answer that we face the biggest
crisis in the midst of the breakthrough - and
we have to choose between a breakthrough
and a breakdown.
I cant see the answer. Will I still trust? I
cant understand the circumstances. Will I stillbelieve? I cant
imagine a positive outcome.
Will I still press on? Of course, its easy for
walls to go up in times of testing. But theres
an amazing truth about breakthroughs that
involves the very same test: the tests that
seem to be drawing you far from God are the
very things God can use to bring down the
walls in your life.
You dont have to like the tests you go
through, but you must see the opportunities
that they bring. Tests offer a chance to prove
Gods promises like nothing else on earth can
do.
II. A PROMISE _________; A PROMISE
_________________
The point: there is no confirmation without
the testing; the two go hand in hand.
In science class, we used to have to test
our hypotheses. It was only after the testing
proved our theories to be true that we had
confirmation. And the same is true in real life,
as we see with Habakkuk. He made a clear
decision in the midst of the test that abso-
lutely transformed everything that took place
from that point forward: Habakkuk 3:17-19
When put to the test, you discover thatthings dont have to go as
planned for Gods
promises to be completely, unconditionally
true and lifegiving.
The tests that seem to be drawing you far
from God are the very things God can use to
bring down the walls in your life.
III. THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BREAK-
THROUGHS AND ______________
Somebody once said: When you face
lifes walls, you really only have two choices:
have a breakthrough or have a breakdown!
Breakthroughs and breakdowns common-
ly have all of the same ingredients, but it is
how we use those ingredients in the midst of
the trial that will determine success or, fail-
ure. When people break down on their way
past the wall, it is never because a true prom-
ise of God failed; it is because the person in
the trial failed to focus on the promise, be-
coming distracted by the circumstances that
can be readily seen. On the other hand, like
Habakkuk, at person breaks through when hefixes his eyes on the
unseen promise regard-
less of the circumstances. In this case, the
test becomes the opportunity to prove that
the promise is true!
We live in a world that is so confusing, so
upsetting, so illogical, so evil, and so unfair
that if we walk by sight were headed for a
breakdown. But when we walk by faith -
trusting Gods Word even in the midst of all
we see around uswe take the first step to-
ward a Faith Breakthrough.
The tests of life are all open book: wecan go to the Bible and
study Gods prom-
ises over and over again even as were in the
midst of the test. (continued on page 2)
