(CS4U) Beyond The Barriers



 

Beyond The Barriers

 

"Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you," declares the LORD.
Jeremiah 1:8

 

At a coastal aquarium a big barracuda kept trying to attack a mackerel, but a glass barrier stopped it. After repeatedly bumping his nose into the barrier, he finally gave up and quit trying. Later when the barrier was removed, the barracuda would swim to the point where the barrier had been - but he could go no further. To him that barrier was still there. Are you like that? Do you have imaginary barriers in your mind that say 'so far and no further?'

When God called Jeremiah to be a prophet to the nation, he told the Lord that he was a lousy speaker, was not qualified and could not do the job. Immediately God said, 'Do not say that..' (Jeremiah 1:7). There are certain things you have to stop saying if you are ever to break through your mental barriers and self-imposed limitations. What God said to Jeremiah, He is saying to you today. 'You will go wherever I send you, you will do what I enable you to do, and whatever I have promised I will bring to pass in your life' (see Jeremiah 1:7).

God wants to change your conditioned response patterns and false belief systems. He wants to give you a new pair of glasses. Instead of seeing what you expect, He wants you to see what is possible. Instead of expecting the worst, He wants you to begin looking for the best, for that is what He has in mind for you today.

 

Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me look beyond what I imagine I can do, and see what You have in store for me! In Jesus name, Amen
