Life Without Limits '08!

During the ANZAC long weekend, I left for church camp entitled: 'Life Without Limits.' The first session I remember the speaker talking about we being potentials and through process we are developed into fulfillments. That night I made a commitment to change and have the focus of fulfillment in my sights.

The morning after, I got up and prayed. Not knowing what to say...I just surrendered my life to Him. I surrendered my studies, family, friends, etc, into His hands with complete hope and faith that all will be great. When I wanted to read the Bible, I wasn't sure where to begin or what to read. Usually every morning I had my devotional book with me but during this camp I left it at home. I just prayed that the Spirit of the Lord will guide my eyes and my hands and lead me to what the message that was for the day.

After I spoke the prayer, I picked up my Bible and it opened to Isaiah 55:8-9. "For my thoughts are not your thoughts neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord. "As the heavens are higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."

When I read it I received it in faith because I knew that God was stirring something within in regards to this verse. I knew that I shouldn't have to be worried or afraid of my future because He has already planned it even when I was still in my mother's womb. I knew that the things that concerned me were not a concern for Him for all things are possible and wonderful in His hands. I knew that the fears that I had were not His fears because He knew that I could overcome them. I knew that the limitations that I put on myself re not the limitations He works by because He has promised me a life of success and prosperity.

I was in tears when I received this revelation. I was in tears of joy because I knew I was in His perfect hands. And that nothing of this world could fail me.

During the day, we had sessions and until the in evening, when we had the last session of the day, was when I experienced an awesome feeling.

We were worshipping Him with songs and I began to cry really hrad an the suddenly laugh really hard. I knew it was the Holy Spirit but it was such an awesome feeling. I was on such a high - I felt I could do it forever.

By the end I knew that I didn't need other people praying for me to experience God the way I did. All I needed was my complete focus and worship unto Him. I knew the Lord that I served was and is a living God. It was amazing!

By the enxt day, the last day, we had the annointing. This was when the pastors would individually pray for us and at times God would have a message of confirmation for us.

I had mine. I learnt that these prophesies weren't a direction in my life but they were confirmations from God about what I should do with my life.

I got mine.

I now stand firmly in faith that this confirmation will see through in my life because there are no longer limitations in my life.

The only limitation was the one that was in my mind!

So live life joyously knowing that your future is guaranteed!!!
