2 Corinthians 12:10, " Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecutions, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong."
Every believer has limitations. There is a sect of preachers who are extremists of the"new creation realities" who teach as if the believer is already made perfect and complete at rebirth. They ignore the scriptures as above by the very same apostle Paul where he acknowledged his own limitations. God did not make us intoperfect men at salvation. How many are prepared to accept that others with different talents are needed? You will be rewarded for fulfilling your calling, not for impressing human beings. "And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God" (Luke 16:15). That is why I do not care what others think about me. Because
I am human, it occurs to me that people may find me weird. I often think that many of my colleagues see me as
strange. But what does it matter? Do not try to please people anymore! Try to please the Lord. When it is time for others to play their role allow them to. Do not stifle others. See yourself as building the kingdom of God and enhancing the body of Christ. Recognize that you cannot do everything. Allow others to play a role. They will be blessed and so will you! Moses allowed seventy other men to help him in the ministry. That decision certainly prolonged his life. There are some pastors who lack administrative and management skills. If you do not employ
the services of the appropriate people, your ministry may crumble. Most African musicians fail because they want to be the songwriter, singer, producer and manager of their own music. Do you consider yourself to be great? Recognize your God given limitations. Your limitations help you focus on your assignment by removing you from the wrong place. For example, the weaknesses of both Moses and Paul in speech helped them to focus on writing the Old Testament law and the New Testament grace respectively, reducing the time they would have spent preaching sermons.
