There are many things that are out there to limit you as a child of God. The system of this world has been structured in such a way that some selective few are the ones enjoying while the remaining people are on their own. We have found ourselves in the system where the policies and the law are to make the rich become richer and the poor remain poorer; but as children of God, we can still live above all these limitations before us. If you must live above limitations, there are certain things you must do, the book of Genesis 26 vs 1 – 25 will be our anchor scripture for this message. What are the things you have to do in order to live above limitations? In the above Bible passage, David did not act based on his knowledge or professional skill as a warrior but he had to ask from God before making any step. If you must live above limitations, always hear from God before making any decision at all. You need to forget about your status, your professionalism or your academic qualifications and do whatever God ask you to do. In that book of Genesis 26, I want to believe that the reason Isaac wanted to go to Egypt was that He saw everybody moving to Egypt due of the famine in the land and as he chose to follow the instruction of God that he should stay in the land where he was, the Bible says in verses 12, “Then Isaac sowed in the Land, and received in the same year an hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him”. If you must live above limitations, you must avoid bandwagon and follow the instructions given to you by God (Luke 5 vs 1 - 7). The story of Elisha and his master, Elijah in the book of 2Kings 2 vs 1 – 16 when Elijah was about to be taken up to heaven in a whirlwind is another good example of a person that remained focused. Verse five of the bible passage above says “And the sons of the prophets that were at Jericho came to Elisha, and said unto him, knowest thou that the Lord will take away thy master from thy head today? And he answered, yea, I know it; hold your peace.” If you look at that passage, you will discover that the sons of the prophets were talking Elisha down but he remained focused to achieve what he wanted; it was even the sons of the prophets that first testified of the power of God upon Elisha after he had received the double portion of the power and grace upon Elijah (2kings 2 vs 15). If you must live above limitations, one of the things you have to do is to be focused on whatever you have gotten (inspiration) from God that you should do. Although, people around you may not understand what you are doing most times. As a matter of fact, what you are doing may not align with the system of the world, that is, it may not look achievable in the eyes of the people but if you are sure that you are following the instructions given to you by God, please continue and remain focused on it because very soon, you will have result(s) to show all your mockers and they will have no choice than to follow you. It is the mind of God that as his child, you should live above every form of limitations because you are carrying the DNA of God but you need to understand that in this Kingdom, we live by instructions. Seek God’s face at all times over every matter, follow the instructions given to you and remain focused; then you are on your way to live above any limitations. We shall continue in part two of this message but before then, if you are yet to surrender your life to Jesus Christ, if you have not accepted him as your Lord and Savior, now is the best time you can do that in order for you to receive that grace to live above limitations. Jesus loves you and he has paid the price on the cross of Calvary with his blood for you to be saved. He loves you, come to him today and start enjoying the power to live above limitations.
