Breakthrough requires obedience to God’s voice every time, not assumption based on last time.

Breakthrough victory comes when we seek God before we fight the battle.

Breakthrough happens when God tears down the strongholds that have stood for too long.

Before God brings breakthrough around you, He brings breakthrough in you.

The Lord of Breakthrough - Week 1 by Elevate Christian Church

The wise men traveled far, following the star, seeking truth. They represent the seekers of all nations—reminding us that Jesus came for the whole world. They brought their best gifts to Jesus—challenging us to consider what we bring to Him this Christmas.

Angels were God’s messengers, sent to proclaim peace and joy. Their song of “Glory to God in the highest” declares the purpose of Jesus’ birth. Like angels, we are called to be messengers—sharing the good news of Christ with a dark world.

The shepherds were the overlooked, ordinary, and often despised people of their day. God chose to announce the birth of Jesus to them first—showing that Christ came for the lowly and forgotten.

Rejoicing in the middle of a storm doesn’t come naturally — but Paul reminds us that through prayer, gratitude, and trust, we can experience God’s peace even when life feels chaotic. Paul wrote Philippians from prison — and yet his message was joy. He encouraged the church in Philippi to rejoice, not because their circumstances were easy, but because “the Lord is near.” If Paul could find joy while chained to a guard, we can learn to do the same when life feels heavy.

Death for the believer is not a defeat to fear but a graduation into glory. When we live with eternity in mind, we don’t just prepare to die—we prepare to step into the fullness of life with Jesus. The best way to prepare for death is to live faithfully. Start building an eternal legacy today.

Christians grieve differently. Grief is real, but for the believer it is never hopeless. Christians grieve deeply, but we grieve with the assurance of reunion and resurrection. Grief is real and necessary, but we don’t grieve like those without hope. Christ brings comfort even in our deepest loss.

A biblical look at the afterlife. The Bible is clear—death is not the end; it’s a doorway. We all face eternity, and our response to Christ determines our destination. Be confident in your eternal destiny—and help others find that confidence in Christ.

We avoid talking about death, but Scripture speaks of it honestly. Recognizing its reality helps us live with greater intention and eternal perspective.

Paul says in Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Him who strengthens me." (NIV). This is a very popular verse that is usually taken out of context as it is often associated with our ability to accomplish a difficult task. Paul is actually speaking of being content in all situations and circumstances because he holds fast to Jesus and His comforting hand to endure. Today we close out this Silent Killer series as we discuss discontentment. Watch as Lead Pastor Kevin Barton brings the energy and honesty in today message about remembering who we belong to and like Paul who was writing from prison that we can be content if we remember the promises of God. Not matter the challenge, "To live is Christ and to die is gain."

This week we’re addressing the destructive force of sexual lust—a sin that quietly corrodes the soul, sabotages marriages, and distorts intimacy. When fed, especially through pornography, lust reduces people to objects—commodities to be consumed and discarded—leaving behind shame and broken trust. In today’s message, Lead Pastor Kevin Barton exposes this silent killer, drawing on powerful biblical examples that reveal how every hidden deed will one day be brought to light. He teaches us that freedom doesn’t come from sheer willpower, but through surrender—turning to God, who alone can break the chains of lust. If you’ve wrestled with this struggle, we invite you to watch and receive hope, healing, and the assurance that God’s grace is stronger than any sin.
