Excerpt from Spiritual Breakthroughs:

What exactly is a spiritual breakthrough? For the purposes of this book, a spiritual breakthrough is "an obvious and observable change in controlling thoughts, feelings, or behaviors, resulting in dramatic spiritual growth." The bottom line is, when you make a spiritual breakthrough, it will be obvious. You will know it, and others will see it, too. Making and sustaining spiritual breakthroughs will transform you into a drastically different person. That is what the power of God can do if we allow it. Yes, you read that correctly; we must allow the most powerful force in the universe to work in our lives. We can stop the power of God simply by deciding not to change. I made the decision to hinder His power many times in the past, and perhaps you are making it right now. My prayer is that by picking up this book, you made the first step towards opening your heart and mind to the power of God and are ready to delve into His Scriptures.
