...LIMITING GODS POWER... In spite of listening to messages every Sunday, many people are still asking the same question today either in their words, thoughts, or deeds: Can God perform miracles in my life? Can God cure my long-term diseases? Can God give me a comfortable life? Can God deliver me? Such questions limit the power of God in peoples lives. In spite of seeing many miracles, some people still find it difficult to believe God. They behave as if God is not telling them the truth. They claim to have received miracles, but keep on suspecting God. Such people are indirectly asking: Can God solve my problems? Such people will not receive answers to prayer from God. A lady was involved in prostitution for very long time. It was later discovered that she had a diseased womb and her womb had to be removed. After this incidence, this lady gave her life to the Lord Jesus Christ and joined a spiritual local assembly, After some time of listening to faith messages and obeying God. She decided to become a full time worker in the Church and to forget about marriage, moreso since she would no longer be able to have babies. Her doctors could not believe their eyes when this sister eventually got married and became pregnant. If God can do this to this wombless woman how much more those with wombs? Gods ways are not our ways. He will not mind sending Angels to us like He did to Peter (Acts 12:1-11) and Elisha (11 kings 6:1-18). However, many people today are like Naaman the leper who wanted God to work the miracle in their own way. It is a very serious sin to limit God to a particular place or point. God is able to take what you want from the devils crowd. In Hebrew 10:38 the Bible says, The just shall live by faith. He does not say the just shall live by anxiety, fear, or worries. The Bible says, believing is seeing, but many people want to see before the believe. When you decide to believe God, it can sometimes look like madness. People talk about common sense but the Bible does not say we should walk by common sense. Some people are so scared about death and converted the Bible to a charm which the put under their pillow or inside their wrappers. Some pregnant women attach safely pins to their wrapper to protect their pregnancy. Some tie assorted crossess on their necks; some leave the hair of their children uncut for many years just because they are afraid the children might die. By these actions, they are asking God dangerous questions- Can God protect my life? Can God protect my children? Believe that God can do all things, yes! He can [[AMEN]]
