Devotion: Don’t limit yourself

Devotion: Romans 12:2(Good news translation) Do not conform yourselves to the standards of this world, but let God transform you inwardly by a complete change of your mind. Then you will be able to know the will of God—what is good and is pleasing to him and is perfect.”

God’s will on your life doesnt match the worldly standards. You can discover it when you transform your mind. The world has its own standards and patterns of doing things. The world classifies people in different ways. However this classification has nothing to do with God.

When you are a child of God, you have a divine nature working in you. 2 Peter 1:4. “Whereby are given to us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these you might be partakers of the divine nature…” It was unheard of that man would live a divine life on earth till Christ came and gave us believers this life.

Divine nature is the ability of God working in a human being. Its his power and life working in you. That is why you are also called a god to differentiate your life with an ordinary person without Christ.Psalm 82:6. “I have said, You are gods; and all of you are children of the most High”.John 10:34-35 ” Jesus answered, “Is it not written in your law, ‘ I said, you are gods ‘? If those people to whom the word of God came were called ‘gods’ (and the scripture cannot be broken).”

This is life without boundaries. The life full of possibilities. Philippians 4:13.” I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me. ” Mark 9:23. “Jesus said to him, If you can believe, all things are possible to him that believes.”

Why do many people not walk in it? Ignorance and wrong mindset. Not many know this life working in them. For a long time they have been taught, have read, have heard and have witnessed a lot of people who operate below capacity. Such people become standards or benchmarks in the minds which limit and stop many from attaining their full potential. That is why you need to renew the mind by the Word(Rom12:2). Believe the Word and ignore everybody else who doesn’t talk in line with the Word.Romans 3:4 “…Yes, let God be true, but every man a liar..”

You are what God says and not what the world says. Don’t limit yourself.

Confess aloud: I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I will never operate below my capacity. I operate at full capacity. The Word of God is my standard. The world is not my standard. I will never accept to be judged by world standards. I am a success in everything I do. I am a victor. In Jesus Name. Amen
