FAR BEYOND THOSE WALLS

Post date: Oct 25, 2013 10:10:45 AM

Despite the insurmountable walls surrounding your life, your career, finances, marriage, dreams, visions, desires and efforts today, despite the powers of darkness fighting you daily, despite the words and actions of men and despite the pains, God’s only desire is to see you exist beyond those offensive walls. Your eyes were given to see far beyond your immediate vicinity and you have to determine to begin seeing yourself beyond those walls from today. Locking you behind closed doors, being unable to use your talents and professional training are not the best for you.

God did not only give you eyes to continuously see things that are evil, unpleasant, annoying, offensive, ungodly, and things that are only confined within the walls of your limitations. He gave you eyes to see beyond the evils of today, beyond the failures, the frustrations, the delays, and the denials of things that are of good report and worthy to keep memory of. He gave you eyes to see His blessings and His goodness. That is why He asked Jeremiah, ‘What do you see.’ The things you see daily have the power to affect your entire life thereafter, affect your entire thoughts and reasoning, and affect your actions and reactions. Whenever the things you see are changed, your entire life, thoughts, actions and reactions will automatically change.

God did not give you the heart to continuously mourn over the activities of the devil, He did not give you the heart to think that which is evil against yourself or anyone else, and He did not give the heart of the devil. He made you in His image and gave you the heart to believe in Him and to think as Him, Romans 10:11 “For the scripture says, whoever believes in Him will not be put to shame”. What you see with your eyes and believe continuously with your heart is capable of changing everything about your life presently and in the nearest future.   

Look beyond the walls of your current disappointment, your current failures, your current disabilities, your current unemployment and your current lacks. There are better things over the horizon for you. God had no intent of keeping you closed in on any sadness and regrets. He has no interest in allowing you to remain in a state that does not produce any joy at the end. He wants you delivered, blessed, and courageous. He wants your peace and your joy. He wants you progress and is ready to make you productive. Your present disappointment will not last longer than the limits God had placed on it.  

Your God can never be bound by any of the existing powers; can never be limited by reason of adversities, and can never be frustrated by any prevailing circumstance. He is never frightened by the arrays of potential dangers; He is never intimidated, and is never in hurry to finish what He had started. When He begins anything, He is sure to complete them successfully. God desires are to take you through whatever situation that will come your way on earth successfully. It is not His desires to abandon you or to leave you behind the walls to be afflicted by the enemies of your soul and progress. His desires are to take you over and far beyond those walls.

Though Daniel was behind the walls in the camp, God gave him eyes far behind those walls. He did it with Daniel and will do it for you. Daniel looked beyond the walls of prison and God gave him a revelation that took him from where he was to meet king Nebuchadnezzar in the palace. Thereafter he became a very active and important member of his cabinet. God is willing to open your eyes to see beyond those walls, your heart to perceive that which is good beyond those walls, your mind to desire the very best and to enable your strength to achieve them. Irrespective of what you are passing through, know it that God is with you for the very best.
