Generational limitations
are certain limitations that run in families, institutions, communities and
nations. Some of them include poverty, barrenness, idolatry, failure,
obscurity, etc; and have become entrenched in families, in fact so deeply
entrenched that like palm trees, they are difficult to uproot. Members of such
families, institutions, communities and nations take it for granted that they
can never rise above such limitations so each succeeding generation does not
make any attempt or efforts to uproot the limitations. They lamely accept them
and live with them.
Definitely, you
cannot do this in your own strength which explains why God equipped you specially
with certain gifts designed to make you a positive change agent in that family.
You can rewrite the history of your family through those gifts. The widow of
the indebted son of the prophet rewrote her family history with just a jar of
oil. Her family was freed from the generational limitation of financial
indebtedness that threatened debt bondage. Rahab rewrote her history by being
hospitable to the two spies.
Mary was an
unknown young woman in Israel. She rewrote her history to national and global
limelight, fame and honor when she willingly allowed herself to be used as a
vessel by God to birth our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
What is God
asking you to do? Your obedience as well as total surrender may just be all
that is required to rewrite your history as well as help you leapfrog
generational limitations of insignificance, irrelevance, dishonor, poverty, obscurity,
failure, you just name it. Whatever it is, a swift turn around by faith in
Jesus Christ and total surrender to the will of God for your life will speed up
the transformation you desire.
Are you ready
now? Then take the quality decision to be saved by Jesus Christ, even right now
and be celebrated in Jesus mighty name. God bless you and welcome to Success
Street.
