Story Behind The Song
When I was reading my bible, a verse stuck out to me. It was Psalm 78:41 and it reads, "Yea they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel." As I read this I heard the Lord speak in my spirit, "it is time for my children to take the limits off." This verse was referring to the Israelites in the wilderness doubting God's power even though they had seen His miracles. I immediately thought of how we limit ourselves through doubt, misunderstood doctrine, etc. and the way we limit God in our lack of trust, our limited ability to dream outside of what we believe is possible in our own strength, not accounting for the fact that we have a limitless God. God is wanting us to take every limit and constraint that we have off of ourselves and Him.
Song Description
This song is a motivational song to the body of Christ to step out and fulfil the great commission in faith, freedom, and power. We have not just placed limits on ourselves but on God as well. We need to remove every mental limitation and belief that we have fallen prey to that is preventing us from moving in the authority God has given us and trusting Him at His word.

Lyrics
Vs 1.
Can you feel the excitement stirring
Anticipation in the earth that yearning
A world that's ready to hear the good news of the gospel brought through me and you
Holy Spirit fill us with Your glory
To go out and share Your story
Break us out of these four walls
It is time to take the limits off
Chorus:
So what are we waiting for, Your presence at the door,
Wanting to move in us like He's never moved before
It's time to take the limits off, Lord do what You wanna' do
Your breaking every mold that we have placed You into
It's time to take the limits off
Vs 2.
We'll go out with expectation
Faith to reach our hurting nation
We have power and authority to heal and set the captives free
We will be Your hands and feet
Touching everyone we meet
With signs wonders and miracles, it is time to take the limits off
Chorus:
So what are we waiting for, Your presence at the door,
Wanting to move in us like He's never moved before
It's time to take the limits off, Lord do what You wanna' do
Your breaking every mold that we have placed You into
It's time to take the limits off
Bridge: Break every chain that binds us, break every lie that blinds us
Break every box that we are confines to (4x)
Break every chain, break every chain, break every chain, break every chain
Chorus: So what are we waiting for, Your presence at the door,
Wanting to move in us like He's never moved before
It's time to take the limits off, Lord do what You wanna' do
Your breaking every mold that we have placed You into
It's time to take the limits off
