The Sky Is The Limit

 

A lot of us have confidence in things we know we can do or accomplish.

A lot of us put our trust in others as we interact and carry out usual daily activities.

Sometimes we may doubt ourselves or others- unsure as to if one is capable or not.

It is reasonable to be cautious.

It is not wise to underestimate or overestimate in haste or based upon unsupported impression or information.

Sometimes people can see qualities or potential within us that we cannot see in ourselves and vice versa.

In life there will always be challenges and opportunities to take on and explore.

Uncertainty may come along with discouraging us at times, preventing us from discovering or further reaching goals that bring unto us happiness and change.

We should not place limits upon ourselves. We never know what we can do unless we try.

A lot of us can achieve more than what we give ourselves credit for.

We must step out on faith by taking a chance to leap forward and grow in whatever it is that calls to us within our hopes, needs, desires and dreams.

By jumping into belief, we never know what heights we will climb.

It is said that the sky is the limit but one day we will be able to touch beyond.

 Jesus looked at them intently and said, “Humanly speaking, it is impossible. But with God everything is possible.”-Matthew 19: 26

A introduction devotional by LaToya Lawrence- Originally Written December 2020

I rededicated my life to the Lord after being angry at him for approximately fifteen years and now that I have resumed a relationship with him I have been filled with the pleasant desire to use my blogs/websites as a platform to share and help others through my Christian faith, and good news of the true gospel.

I am not a preacher or any spiritual leader I am just inspired and encouraged to write messages centered around our daily walk with God. –And all of this is a gift from God, who brought us back to himself through Christ. And God has given us this task of reconciling people to him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people’s sins against them. And he gave us this wonderful message of reconciliation. So we are Christ’s ambassadors; God is making his appeal through us. We speak for Christ when we plead, “Come back to God!” -2 Corinthians 5:18-20

---

For we speak as messengers approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News. Our purpose is to please God, not people. He alone examines the motives of our hearts. -Thessalonians 2:4

If we are afraid to offend people with the truth then God cannot use us to spread the gospel and to be an example of his testimony. The gospel can indeed be offensive and there is no other way to approach or to get around this fact.

People would rather hear and listen to the lies from hell! They would prefer to believe that it is okay to have grace from God and live within accordance to the devil. –For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear. -2 Timothy 4:3

When is the last time we heard a blunt sermon from an evangelist who has access to reach across the nations through their fame and popularity? I cannot remember when there has been one bold enough to do so in years!

The preachers we see on television now are motivated by their high-pay and expensive lifestyles. They continue to water-down the gospel in order to maintain their fortune.

True believers are not inspired to seek out fame, money, or a title for themselves they are intent to preach about the consequences of sin, the importance of repentance and turning away from sin to live one’s life for Jesus at the cost of forsaking one’s self, and the world we live in.

There are even ministers in everyday churches that are not famous or well-known who are not preaching straightforward biblical truths. They have their own watered-down versions of what the gospel is too!

And now I make one more appeal, my dear brothers and sisters. Watch out for people who cause divisions and upset people’s faith by teaching things contrary to what you have been taught. Stay away from them. Such people are not serving Christ our Lord; they are serving their own personal interests. By smooth talk and glowing words they deceive innocent people. -Romans 16: 17-18

No one will be genuinely saved through the words of a false gospel or one messaged with half-truths.

There are severe repercussions to endure and blood on the hands of those who deceitfully mislead and cause others to fall. God does not want false conversions due to those in authority not conveying what is really the true gospel. –But if you cause one of these little ones who trusts in me to fall into sin, it would be better for you to have a large millstone tied around your neck and be drowned in the depths of the sea. -Matthew 18:6

It is so important for people to take upon themselves by reading scripture to validate fact from fiction. Never listen to anyone or anything that is not backed up by the bible. Although everything possible does not have to be written in the Bible for it to be true!

Note: Some preachers or everyday people may understandably misinterpret scripture here and there and do not mean any harm within their utterances, however, there is always room for re-evaluation and correction.

In your journey, do not fear to stand up for truth and to not be persuaded by worldly comfort and worldly things to dilute the truth of God’s word.

“Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’ -Matthew 7:21-23
