TRUST THE LORD
“But the Lord said to Moses, “Don’t limit my power! You will see that I can do what I say I can do.”
Numbers 11:23 (ERV)
The limitation of your mind is determined by your understanding or exposure. Your imagination cannot be expanded beyond what you see.
You can conceive the unimaginable in your mind according to the insights you have had.
For example, the car toys of yesterday are now on today’s streets and some are in the showrooms to be sold.
The first car which was designed, contributed to the imagination of the designer of today’s Rolls-Royce. The examples of yesterday are for our learning today.
This is what the Bible does for your faith. The stories you read in the scriptures are not mere historical accounts. They are to expose your heart to things you have not imagined and to dispense faith into you.
It is to your own disadvantage when you don’t read and study the Bible. The things written in the scriptures are for your learning.
“For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.” Romans 15:4 (Amplified Bible)
You cannot access the riches of God’s wisdom when you don’t give yourself to personal Bible study.
The absence of personal Bible study will make you live by fantasies.
The faith of some people doesn’t yield results because they are not built on the understanding of God through His word. They build their faith on fantasies and assumptions.
The reading and studying of the word of God brings you into proper understanding. When you study the word of God, you will not only find examples of faith but will have a proper contextual and background understanding of how that example of faith was exuded.
The study of the word gives you a personal grasp of the thoughts of God. This is why through the Machaira With Apostle Bennie, you are given DIG DEEPER scriptures and also a ONE-YEAR BIBLE READING PLAN.
No matter how you can imagine a technology, you must as well understand the physics to make it work.
The study of the word of God doesn’t only expose you to what God can do but how to position yourself to rightly experience the effectual workings of God through His word.
When you don’t know God through His word, you may easily doubt Him and His word. God does nothing outside His word.
When you take God’s word and act on it, you partner with God in faith to see the manifestation of His word in your life.
The manifestation of God’s word in your life is according to your faith in Him. Your faith in God is your partnership and agreement with the Word.
All those who limited God’s power did not partner with God in faith. They did not exercise confidence in God. Your partnership with God is a partnership unto unlimited living.
You must stand strong in agreement with God that His word is true and will not fail, no matter the challenge.
Daniel the Prophet, found himself in a situation where he should be broken, discouraged and afraid. But he chose to remain confident in God. He chose to stand in partnership with God’s word; that the Lord is his protection and defence.
He was accused of breaking a law and was thrown into a lions’ den. The king’s confidence was that the God of Daniel would bring deliverance to Daniel (see Daniel 6:16-22).
However, the last sentence in verse 23 (of Daniel chapter 6) caught my attention:
“Then the king was exceedingly glad and commanded that Daniel be taken up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no kind of harm was found on him because he had trusted in his God“
Did you see that?
Daniel the Prophet was not delivered because the king sent soldiers to defend him. No kind of harm was found on him because HE HAD TRUSTED IN HIS GOD.
That trust in God was Prophet Daniel’s secret.
The moment you stop trusting the Lord, you limit the supply of His power. And there is no expiration for your trust in God. You must trust the Lord at all times, in all things and irrespective of the situation.
No matter how little or how big the matter is, trust the Lord.
The Lord will always deliver, protect, defend, preserve, provide, and prosper you.
Hallelujah!
— I don’t reduce God’s grace to my human calculation.
— I have confidence in God’s limitless supply.
— I believe without any iota of doubt, that God will always do what He says He will do.
— I don’t limit God’s power in my thoughts and imagination. I have strong faith in seeing the mighty workings of God in all things.
