Breakthrough by Dia Viola (Review)

The last couple years of Dia's life have been nothing short of a testimony of God's work, grace, and love in the midst of trial and tribulation. Knowing Dia, when I listen to her newest single Breakthrough, it hits different for me. This is music you feel. Dia is joined on this joint by Mike Teezy. The way Mike and Dia's voices work together is nothing short of magical. Don't believe me? Give a listen yourself below (if you haven't already), and just wait until you get to the third verse when they bring the heat lyrically, and harmonically. It is absolutely fantastic, and a part that I listen to on repeat. 

Lyrically, Breakthrough is a refreshing message about trusting God's plan in the midst of the chaos and weight of life. My favorite line in the chorus "Even if it don't look like what I want it to, I know you'll send a breakthrough."  To me this line screams that God's good and perfect will in our lives is what matters way more than how we think God should move. This is a profound set of lyrics draped in a beautiful melody. 

Breakthrough reminds me of a modern day Psalm. Dia and Mike are crying out to God who is the author and perfecter of their faith. In 1 Peter 5:7 it reads; "Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." This verse echoes what Jesus says in Matthew 11:28-30: “Come to Me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is comfortable, and My burden is light.” Dia and Mike do a wonderful job of being open and transparent as they musically lay their worries, cares, and burdens at the feet of Jesus, while trust Him with their lives. We need more of this. Again, Breakthrough is music you feel.
