LIMITLESS!

LIMITLESS! We are declaring, in this Year of Jubilee, our God has no limits. By His Spirit in us, we have the potential to live a Life of faith and trust in a limitless God. But there are conditions and principles that must be understood and applied. God’s Word gives us the Keys to the Kingdom of God for a life without Limits! Today let your faith grow in the presence of God. “God can do anything, you know….”Ephesians 3:20 (MSG)

3 Ways we Limit God

1. Familiarity – Having an earthly, casual, attitude towards the almighty, sovereign God.

• Mark 6:4 “A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own”
• He could not do any miracles there
• Familiarity breeds contempt – Close association with someone can lead to a loss of respect for them.
• Luke 7:36-50 “You gave me no water for My feet… No kiss of greeting… No oil for My head.”
  

2. Fear of Man – More concern about what PEOPLE think than about what GOD thinks.

• Proverbs 29:25 “The fear of man bringeth a snare: but whoso putteth his trust in the LORD shall be safe.”
• (NLT) “Fearing people is a dangerous trap, but trusting the LORD means safety.”
• (Message) “The fear of human opinion disables; trusting in God protects you from that.”
• John 12:43 (The Pharisees) “They loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.”

• Need for the approval of others
• Fear of being criticized or rejected
• Need for admiration or attractiveness
• Getting over-committed – you can’t say “no”
• Life revolves around what other’s think
• Unwilling to be honest about your faults
• Unwilling to confess sin and be accountable
• Tell white lies to make yourself look better
• The constant desire for “praise of men”
• The idol of “people pleasing” owns you
• Defining yourself through the eyes of others
• Hebrews 13:6 “The Lord is my helper; and I  will not fear what man shall do unto me.”

3. Faithlessness – Unbelief

• Mark 6:6 “He was amazed at their lack of faith.”
• Mark 9:23 “Everything is possible for him who believes.”
• Mark 11:22 “Have faith in God.”
