21 Days of Fasting 2 Purposes: 1. Pursuit of God 2. Breakthrough Micah 2:13 – The Breaker [the Messiah] will go up before them. They will break through, pass in through the gate and go out through it, and their King will pass on before them, the Lord at their head. (AMP)

Break Out Time 2 Samuel 5:20 – "Go up," God replied. "Count on Me. I'll help you beat them." David then went straight to Baal Perazim, and smashed them to pieces. Afterwards David said, "God exploded on my enemies like a gush of water." That's why David named the place Baal Perazim (The-Master-Who- Explodes). (MSG)

This is more than just breaking open a gate or breaking through at one point. This is an explosion!! Blowing the Gate off the hinges and causing the entire fencing to collapse! It is not just the Breaker Anointing that we need to show up, but The One Who Explodes on our sicknesses, debt, and any other thing you are believing God for. He will explode on it like a mighty torrent of raging water let out from a dam that has been exploded!

For the last 15 days we have been positioning ourselves for a Break Out! Now, I want to give you a picture of what that will look like. The early Church found themselves in similar situation and they went to prayer. The Result? A Break Out or a Prison Break!

Acts 12:1 – About that time King Herod Agrippa began to persecute some believers in the church. Herod the Great + Miriam = Aristobulus who had Herod Agrippa I Herod Agrippa observed many of the Jewish laws Herod Agrippa II interviewed Paul when he was in prison in Caesarea.

2 He had the apostle James (John's brother) killed with a sword. The Sons of Thunder – James and John Matthew 20:23 – So He said to them, "You will indeed drink My cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it is prepared by My Father." (NKJV) 1 st and last of the 12 Apostles to die.

3 When Herod saw how much this pleased the Jewish people, he also arrested Peter. (This took place during the Passover celebration.) 4 Then he imprisoned him, placing him under the guard of four squads of four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring Peter out for public trial after the Passover. Usually only chained to 1 soldier. Illegal to have a trial during the Passover. Jesus’ trial was illegal.

If we could see into the spirit realm, it might look like this for some people. The devil has some chained, and it looks impossible for their situation to ever change. But, Jesus said that Nothing is impossible for them that believe!

5 But while Peter was in prison, the church prayed very earnestly for him. When I pray, coincidences happen, and when I do not, they don’t. – William Temple I fear John Knox's prayers more than an army of ten thousand men. I had rather stand against the cannons of the wicked than against the prayers of the righteous. — Mary, Queen of Scotland

6 The night before Peter was to be placed on trial, he was asleep, fastened with two chains between two soldiers. Others stood guard at the prison gate. 7 Suddenly, there was a bright light in the cell, and an angel of the Lord stood before Peter. The angel struck him on the side to awaken him and said, "Quick! Get up!" And the chains fell off his wrists. 8 Then the angel told him, "Get dressed and put on your sandals." And he did. "Now put on your coat and follow me," the angel ordered.

9 So Peter left the cell, following the angel. But all the time he thought it was a vision. He didn't realize it was actually happening. 10 They passed the first and second guard posts and came to the iron gate leading to the city, and this opened for them all by itself. So they passed through and started walking down the street, and then the angel suddenly left him. 11 Peter finally came to his senses. "It's really true!" he said. "The Lord has sent his angel and saved me from Herod and from what the Jewish leaders had planned to do to me!"

12 When he realized this, he went to the home of Mary, the mother of John Mark, where many were gathered for prayer. 13 He knocked at the door in the gate, and a servant girl named Rhoda came to open it. 14 When she recognized Peter's voice, she was so overjoyed that, instead of opening the door, she ran back inside and told everyone, "Peter is standing at the door!“ 15 "You're out of your mind!" they said. When she insisted, they decided, "It must be his angel."

16 Meanwhile, Peter continued knocking. When they finally opened the door and saw him, they were amazed. 17 He motioned for them to quiet down and told them how the Lord had led him out of prison. "Tell James and the other brothers what happened," he said. And then he went to another place.

It’s BREAK OUT TIME!!!
