Yesterday was my niece’s birthday and I went to celebrate with her. On seeing me, she gave me a hug and asked me immediately for her birthday gift. Sharp girl I thought to myself, didn’t even God tell us to ask and it shall be given unto us.
I then asked her “what do you want?”, Immediately I finished asking I began to think in my mind “what if she asks for what is beyond my capacity, who sent me bayii?”People of God, she told me she wanted a box of Pringles. See how I was happy , I promised to get it for her. When I told my sister (her mum) what she demanded, her mummy shouted “Chai, when will you wise up and ask for better things?”.
I was just laughing, the fact remains that the innocent girl has told me her heart desire, and as a loving aunt I have to see to it’s fulfillment Dear friends, Small minds can’t access great things. Are you limiting God in your thoughts? Are you analysing God’s power by human science and logic?
Even though you have read the story of Sarah and how she had a child at 90 years severally, will you believe if the same happens today? We have read of raw miracles that happened by the power of the Holy Spirit in times past, but if the same happens now you will start raising eyebrow and insinuating scam.
God says He wants to prosper you and you are asking questions? How can this be? You can’t access some Kingdom blessings until your mind is renewed and enlarged. God wants to give you a bakery but your mind is still at the level of “God, please just give me bread to eat today”.
Sometimes all you need to access the next level is a mind shift. No limitation, not even lack of funds or connection is as strong as the limitation a man places upon himself in his mind.
If God gives you a blank cheque today, what will your request be? Ponder on this. Small minds can’t access the fullness of God’s glory!!!
