INTRODUCTION:
God is a barrier breaker. Throughout Scripture, He consistently demonstrates His ability to shatter limitations, remove obstacles, and open new paths for His people. Whether spiritual, emotional, physical, or circumstantial, no barrier is too strong for Him. Barriers may appear as walls, gates, chains, or impossibilities, but the presence and power of God dismantles every opposition standing against His children. This message reminds us that when we walk with God, no hindrance can stop our divine progress.
