TAKING THE LIMITS OFF OF GOD
NUMBER 23:19
Many are not able to achieve success and greatness in all of life endeavors because of the
several barriers before them. People talk about breakthroughs showing that there are forces and
things limiting them, so they want the mighty power of God to break the limiting barriers before
them. The truth is that most of the barriers are manmade. They are invisible walls that we
through negative thoughts have built in our minds that limit and stop us from taking positive and
powerful steps that will bring success and accomplishments. Negative thoughts build barriers
that limit the thinker. You cannot go higher than your thoughts will permit you. You cannot be
greater than what you think and believe you can. Jesus taught that all things are possible to him
that believes that it is possible.
Mark 9:23
23 Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth. KJV
This shows that man is always limited by his thoughts. If a man will not believe a thing is
possible, it means he can’t do it or attain it. If you will not believe you will be healed, it doesn’t
matter who prays for you, you won’t be healed. If you don’t believe the money you are looking
for will come by God’s intervention, it won’t come. If you do not believe that the project you are
handling will be completed according to the original plan simply because there is a shortage of
funds, it will be as you think. If you do not believe you can come out of lack and poverty, you
will remain in that condition. If you do not believe you can be great though you came from a
poor family and no one in your family has ever made it to the top or attained greatness, you will
remain small, insignificant, poor, and a non-achiever. If you do not believe you can forgive the
one who has hurt you and move on with your life, you will continue to be tormented by the
experience. If you do not believe you can overcome depression and enjoy your life, you will
remain depressed all your life. If you do not believe that you will be promoted and continue to
climb the ladder of success, you will remain on that spot. The truth is that every man is limited
by his thoughts and beliefs. That is why is it is important that all have their minds renewed
through the words of God and believe what it says and teaches.
Your thoughts limit the resources that will be made available to you. Your thoughts limit the
grace of God in your life. Your thoughts limit what the anointing of God can do in your life no
matter who ministers to you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Your thoughts limit what God
can do for you or with you. God responds to our thoughts and He judges us by what He finds us
thinking. Your thoughts prove faith or unbelief, and God responds only to faith. If your thoughts
are positive, God will definitely bless and keep His promises in your life.
Prov 23:7
7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he…KJV
Heb 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he
is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.KJV
CHANGE YOUR ATTITUDE TO LIFE AND SITUATIONS
Attitude is the way a man thinks. It is a man’s mental disposition. Attitudes are formed based on
the interpretations we give to the things we see, hear, smell, taste and feel. A man’s attitude
determines his fate in life. Attitude is more important than facts whether the facts are in one’s
favor or not. The Winning attitude is the best any man, anywhere should adopt. To reach your
dream, you must climb a ladder on which there are four rungs. Mark them well. They are
Determination, Dedication, Discipline, and Attitude.
Attitude is more important than all other three qualities taken together, because attitude deals
with how a person thinks and believes. And before anyone can be determined, dedicated, and
disciplined, he must make a mental and spiritual commitment to the goal. He must continue to
think positively about it all the way to its attainment.
A positive attitude enables a man to break new and higher grounds and position himself where he
wants to be. A negative attitude makes one to rot in a place with the spirit of complaining and
despair rule.
Prov 23:7
7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not
