Yep. Thank you, Lord. Genesis chapter 22, verse number three. We're in a series called name drop in

Genesis 22, verse number 13. I mean, it says, and Abraham looked up and there in the thicket,

he saw a ram caught by its horns.

He went over, took the ram, and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son.

So Abraham called that place, the Lord will provide.

And to this day, it is said, on the mountain of the Lord, it will be provided.

I want to stop the reading of scripture

there and talk from this subject today. Now, I've been preaching all weekend, well, Friday,

and I was somewhere Wednesday, I've been feeling a little Baptist on me. I don't know where

we're going to end up today, but I've been feeling little Baptist on on me so I want to talk from this subject

in our time together family is really simple won't he do it won't he do it I want to

start this sermon about introducing to some and reintroducing to others some of you

heard me talk about this before a concept I've affectionately entitled

A Theology of Limitation.

Limitation Passet?

Yes, a theology of limitation.

A theology of limitations suggests that God ordained, God ordained, God ordained, God ordained, God ordained, God ordained, God ordained, God ordained, God ordained. God ordained limitations are not

design flaws. They're divine features. Graciously granted to us by a generous God who wants to use

our limitations to give us a revelation of him we can't get any other way.

This idea is anchored in the understanding that there are some self-imposed limitations that we create and we should avoid those.

But then there are some God-ordained limitations that we should embrace.

Because self-imposed limitations create barriers, but God-ordained limitations lead to breakthroughs.
