Topic: Limiting God
Text: Luke 5:1-11

God can decide to single you out for a miracle. The day your miracle locates you, your life will become a wonder friends and foes. In Luke 4:25-26, Jesus said there were many widows in the time of Elijah but he was sent to only the widow of Zarepath. She had a breakthrough and was singled out for prosperity. Naaman also had a breakthrough. Luke 4:27 tell us that there were many lepers in Israel at the time of Elisha but none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian. God singled him out for a breakthrough. He was not just healed of leprosy but his skin became like that of a small baby. Moses had his own breakthrough too. He was a forgotten man for 40 years. God came to him and told him to go to Egypt and bring His people out. Peter also had a breakthrough.

In Luke 5, the Lord chose Peter’s boat out of the many boats ashore and, from that day onwards; it was breakthrough after breakthrough for him. On that day he caught so many fishes tat his boat began to sink. He soon became a fisher of men (Acts 2:38-41), as prophesied by Jesus Christ. He became a successful minister of God. The man who digs a well and comes across water had had a breakthrough. However, a man who digs a well and comes across crude oil has had a greater breakthrough. The man who struck oil would have enough money to buy all the water he needs. Some people limit themselves to ordinary breakthroughs.

The Bible says if we are obedient and willing, we will eat the good of the land (Isaiah 1:19). Many of us are obedient but we are not willing to prosper. Do not limit yourself. Survey the greatest heights ahead of you and believe God for the impossible. The sky is not your limit. You can soar, like an eagle beyond the sky. Don’t limit God.
