In the corporate world, there is a limit to the
height some set of people can climb, as a result of either their academic
qualification or leadership capability. When you want to obtain a bank loan,
after much discussion, the next thing is tell you the limit of the amount you
are entitled to. In politics, there is a limit you can climb especially if you
are of a certain age. But in Christ, there is no limit but the sky.
The scripture says that God has laid before each and
every one of us life and death (Deut 30:19), which is why Jesus even restated
it that His coming is so that we don’t just have life, but we have abundant
life (John 10:10). As a stranger in the land, there was a limit to what height
Joseph could climb. Ordinarily, it has never been in record that a stranger
rose to become the Prime Minister in that land, but because within us lies
everything we ever dream of being, Joseph dreamt it and became it.
There is no limit except for the one we create
through unbelief, doubt and fear. Jesus couldn’t do much miracles in His own
country because of their unbelief (Matt 13:58). When those folks in Gen 11
decided to build a tower that would reach up to heaven, Bible says when God saw
what they were doing and how determined they were, He knew there was no limit
to what they were going to achieve which was why he scattered their plan. Had
God not scattered that plan, maybe that building would still be in existence
today.
Many people will tell you it can’t be done. Some
will say it has never been done. But I tell you that with God, all things are
possible. There would be obstacles and challenges along the way, but in the
words of Apostle Paul, forget the things that are behind keep looking ahead
because if you can believe, you can achieve it.
TAKE THE LIMITS OFF!
