Stop Limiting Me

Numbers 13:31 But the other men who had explored the land with them disagreed. “We can’t go up against them! They are stronger than we are!”

And so it is with your world today. They are stronger than you, right now. They are more powerful than you, right now. So many of you cower in fear before them, before their lies, before their strategies to control and rule over you. So many of you do not allow me to work in your lives, to work in this situation. Some of you profess to be my followers. But, if you know me, really know me, why do you live in fear? If you really know who I AM, if you really believe that I am creator of all, ruler over all, why are you afraid? The reason that they are stronger than you, the reason that they have such power over you is that you do not know who you are in Me. You do not avail yourself of my power. You do not avail yourself of my wisdom and knowledge. You do not avail yourself of the Holy Spirit residing within you. Did I not promise in my Word that you, through me, could do anything? If you believe I keep my promises, if you believe I do not lie, if you believe I do not change, then why do you not believe that? Go back, look at the history of my children Israel. Did I not fight for them? Did I not strengthen them? Give them wisdom? Provide for all of their needs? Surround them with my warriors in battle? Why would I not do the same for you? If you are my child, why would I not be a good parent? Stop limiting me, and what I can do through you. My miracles did not cease at the cross. They have continued on to this day. You have seen some yourself. Stop allowing yourself to live as if they had ceased, or were not available to you. Remember this: your enemy is really after me. You are the intermediary target. So, if he is attacking me, will I not fight back? If the battleground is your world, your life, will I not fight back in those arenas? You have been chosen to be my warrior. But you forget the story of David and the giant. Did David go to battle against Goliath in the armor of his day? No. It was restrictive and too heavy for him. So it is with many of the tools my children seek to do battle today. You look to the tools of war of this world. What did David do to conquer Goliath? He depended upon the gifts and talents I had given him as a shepherd – a lowly shepherd. He could drop large, vicious animals with a simple slingshot and stone in order to protect his flocks. He was unnaturally precise. So when he went into battle he knew that to be successful he would need to use the tools I had given him. And only those tools. I have given you tools — gifts and abilities – that are perfectly suited for today. And I have also endowed you access to me. I will work through you. Just get out of the way and allow me to. Stop doubting. When you limit yourself you are, in fact, limiting me. I can do any and everything I wish to do – naturally and supernaturally – through you if you are willing to allow me to.  (2022)
