Take The Lid Off

“Is anything too hard for the Lord?” – Genesis 18:14

Have you ever caught yourself setting limits on what God can do? Maybe you didn’t say it out loud, but deep down, you’ve already decided how far God can go in your life. You’ve mapped out what feels possible, drawn a line in your mind, and figured anything beyond that is out of reach. But be careful. When you decide what God can’t do, you’re boxing Him in.

We serve a limitless God. He doesn’t need your math to multiply. He doesn’t need your logic to open doors. He doesn’t even need your timeline to make things happen. But He does want your trust. When you hold back your faith, when you shrink your prayers to match what you think is “realistic,” you might be missing out on something bigger that God wants to do.

Think about Sarah in the Old Testament. She laughed when God said she would have a child in her old age. She had already determined what was possible and what wasn’t. But God wasn’t asking her to figure it out. He was asking her to believe.

How often do you do the same thing? Maybe it’s in your finances. Or your family. Or a dream that feels way out of reach. You stop asking big because you assume God’s answer will be small. But nothing in Scripture suggests that God is limited by what we see.

God is not intimidated by your age, your past, your lack of resources, or your brokenness. He’s not looking at your life through the same lens you are. He sees potential where you see problems. He sees opportunity where you see obstacles.

The real question is not, “Can God do it?” The question is, “Will you trust Him enough to let Him?” Are you giving God room to be God, or have you boxed Him into a version of your own understanding?

Let today be the day you take the lid off. Ask big. Trust fully. Walk boldly. Because when you stop boxing Him in, you just might see God move in ways you never imagined.
