“Do We Limit a Limitless God””

Philippians 4:19 ESV

“And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.”

I said yesterday we need to take the limits off God. What limits have you (we) placed on God? Do we really believe He will supply our every need?  Many people could get confused by wants verses needs.

What financial limits do we place on God? Psalm 50:10 says, “For every beast of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills.” So many people live below their means, by that I mean they are satisfied God is a God of little things and we miss out on the magnificent blessings of God because of our faith.

I am not advocating that God will bless you with winning the lottery but I am saying that He will do more for us if ask. As an example in Mark 11:24 “”Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask in prayer, believe that you have received it, and it will be yours”. Maybe our first prayer should be “Lord, help my unbelief.” You are not the only one who feels this way.

He is waiting for us to seek Him on help, wisdom, direction in our lives, forgiveness, mercy, favor as you can see the list is limitless.

Back to the cattle on a thousand hills. Are we satisfied with the blessing of one calf or do we believe He has more for us? God listens to our prayers, “The angel of the Lord said to Zechariah, “Do not be afraid, Zechariah, for your prayer has been heard” (Luke 1:13). The only prayer He doesn’t hear is the one not prayed.

Here are some scriptures to lift our faith.

  • Mark 11:24 (Believe that you have received what you ask for in prayer),
  • John 15:7 (Ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you if you remain in Him),
  • Philippians 4:6-7 (Bring your requests to God with thanksgiving), Hebrews 4:16 (Draw near to the throne of grace with confidence),
  • Jeremiah 29:12 (Call upon me and I will hear you), and
  • 1 John 5:14-15 (If we ask anything according to His will, He hears us).

Take the limits of our Limitless God.

God Bless.
