‘That your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of
God’ (1 Cor 2: 5).
‘In the Bible we read Jesus using terms like: ‘O you
little faith’, ‘great is your faith’, ‘according to your faith’,
‘do
you believe I can do this?. Our
asking should not be based on the limited circumstances we are in or based on
the wisdom of men. Our God is ‘Omnipotent’
(He is Almighty); our God is ‘Omniscient’
(He knows everything); and
our God is ‘Omnipresent’ (He is
present everywhere). He named every
star on the sky, He numbered our hairs; He created all what we see by His WORD
and upholding all things by the word of His power (Heb 1:3).
We are happy and rest assured everything is alright when we
have a secured job, a good bank balance etc.
But when you loose your job or when you face a financial crisis, you
feel like you world has come to an end. Our security and confidence are built
on these earthly resources. We are so limited by these sources although God
alone is the One who provides those for us.
The bible says in Psalm 78: 19-29, ‘yes, they spoke against God; they
said, ‘can God prepare a table in the wilderness? Behold, He struck the rock,
so that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed. Can He give bread also? Can He provide meat
for His people?’ They crossed
the Red Sea like they crossed a dry land yet they forgotten the God who did
that so quickly. Instead of thinking how
great our God is who did those miracles will surely provide now also; they were
limited by their surroundings. Psalm 78: 41 says, ‘yes,
again and again they tempted God, and LIMITED the Holy One of Israel.’
You trust God without limitations on the basis of your relationship
with God and not on the basis of the information you have about God. No strings attached! You will not put your
trust and confidence on the temporary resources because God is OUR ETERNAL
RESOURCE! He is unlimited. Your faith level is as high as the revelation
knowledge you gain in your walk with God.
Paul wrote in 2 Cor
4:13, ‘and since we have the same Spirit of
Faith, according to what is written, ‘I believed and therefore I spoke,’ we
also believe and therefore speak’. Our God is not limited by our thinking or
estimations because HE IS WHO HE SAYS HE IS IN HIS WORD. But don’t limit God by your thinking. He works beyond your thinking and beyond your
comprehensions. WITH GOD ALL THINGS ARE
POSSIBLE; and ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE TO THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN THE ALL POSSIBLE
GOD! Let your faith be in the power of
God and not on mere wisdom of men!
Study how God lead the people of Israel in the
wilderness. They saw with their own naked
eyes the ‘glory cloud of God’ guided them by day and the ‘glory fire of pillar’
by night. Can you believe they ate the
food of the angels (Manah)? Yet they
forgot His works so quickly. They got
what they asked but they lived without the knowledge of God so they perished in
the wilderness. So God showed His acts
to His people and His ways to Moses! Hallelujah!
Ignorance keeps you in the wilderness; unbelief stops God’s
hand; lack of knowledge leads you to destruction. Get to know God and focus on what He
can do. Don’t approach Him with your
limitations but with your spiritual understanding of who He is!
Program your mind for ‘all things are possible’. Meditate His Word and keep declare: ‘all things are possible with me who
believe in the all possible God.’
Confess With Me :
I refuse
to be limited by what I see, hear or feel!
I have the
Spirit of Faith.
My faith
rest in the power of God!
All things
are possible with God and
Possible with
me who believe in The All possible God!
I can do
all things through Christ which strengthens me.
In Jesus
Name. Amen.
