It's not about fitting God into a box. Whether it be your box or someone else's. God is NOT limited. He is not limited to your perception or anyone else's perception of what you should be or of
what you should do. What we have to understand is, boxes have limited
space. They restrict you and put
boundaries on every side of you. They are closed in and they limit the amount of movement or activity that you can do on the inside of them. GOD IS NOT LIMITED! When you look at your life, you have to understand that your body is clothed in flesh and the flesh puts on limitations like a box. But inside of you is God's Holy Spirit which is the limitless power of God. In order to walk in the limitless power of God, we have to stop allowing the desires of our flesh and the people we know in the flesh to self-contain us. We have to always remember that we are who God says we are and we can do what God says we can do. We have to know without doubt that God is limitless and He is boundless.
People see from the outside and they will tell you their
opinion. God created you and when He
made you, He purposed your life. When something is created on purpose, that
means it is created with an aim or objective.
To aim means to point or direct at a target. God had an aim in mind when He created you. He set you in place in the family He wanted
you to be in, at the church He wanted you to be at, in the neighborhood He
wanted you to be a part of, on the job He wanted you to work, to live the life
that He preordained for you to live.
So understand, it is not about following the crowd, submitting to the flesh, or even pleasing
people. It’s all about walking out
God’s will, way, and Word in the way that He has purposed for you to do it. It’s about
living the life you have been given in a way that pleases the Father. Your flesh will not always want to submit, people may not always understand and there
may be times when they don’t agree, but your life was created by God for
God. You have to learn how to live from the inside out. Knowing that the Holy Spirit within knows no boundaries. Let the Spirit of God override the limitations of your flesh so that you can fulfill the plan of God for your life.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATIONRomans 8:13-14 - King James Version (KJV)13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live.14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
