Otabil declares 2010, year of breakthrough

Accra, Jan. 1 GNA - General Overseer of International Central Gospel Church, Pastor Mensah Otabil, has declared 2010 as a year of breakthrough and said Christians would attain God given destines only if they wholly trust in Him.

He explained that a breakthrough is a significant and dramatic overcoming of a formidable obstacle or when something happens unexpectedly. Pastor Otabil delivering a sermon to usher in the New Year in Accra on Friday, said God had a purpose for every Christian in 2010 and urged them to adore the lord with all their hearts.

He said spiritual breakthrough occurs when demonic forces flee or when God thwarts the plans of the enemy and redemption takes over. Pastor Otabil said "In life successful people are those who solve complex problems and so when God drops an idea in one's mind to enable him solve complex problems to make him successful it is a mental breakthrough". He said people experience physical breakthrough in the form of progress when they are able to endure challenges.

Pastor Otabil said God would direct "his children" to walk on the path of progress.
