How often do we limit God? At first this seems Like a strange question Most people will agree That God can do anything After all - He IS God! But then why do we Not SEE Him doing What we believe He can...? "Yes, again and again they tempted God, And limited the Holy One of Israel." (Psalm 78:41) Psalm 78 is talking about The children of Israel In the desert for 40 years And how they provoked God And refused to believe Him Thus "limiting" God... How often are you and I Guilty of the same thing...? Eleven (11) years ago I was buying a NEW car (And still have it today) To make a long story short... My faith and belief in God Was stretched when I bought That car... But I was talking to a friend This morning... And I started to remember What has happened to me In my life... Over these past eleven years Since taking that "Step of Faith" And buying that particular car... And I was SHOCKED... Shocked in a GOOD way As I recalled a number Of major and significant Indeed miraculous things That have happened In and through my life... In a way It was like It dawned on me For the first time... That when I chose To believe and trust God for something That was "beyond" me... He started to BLESS Me and other people That I just couldn't do By myself... It was like... God "took the limits off" And things started to happen Because I trusted Him... So what about you? Do have a similar experience? Or is there something You could do right now? Which "stretches" your faith? You see God wants us to believe And He wants GOOD things To happen in our lives... But He wants the GLORY For the good things that happen And is not willing to share That with us or anyone... Whenever we can say: "I did such and such..." God is probably NOT involved... In the case of the Children of Israel According to Psalm 78... They limited God And wandered around In the desert For 40 years... Entering the Promised Land Took FAITH... Where do you find yourself? In the desert...? Or in the Promised Land...?
