Ephesians 3:20
“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”
Ephesians 3:20 NLT
“Now glory be to God, who by his mighty power at work within us is able to do far more than we would ever dare to ask or even dream of, infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, or hopes.”
Today is the day our FAITH will become stronger.
-Like David said in 1 Samuel 17:36:
“Thy servant slew both the lion and the bear… and this uncircumcised Philistine shall be as one of them.”
-He looked at his past victories and spoke forward into a level of faith he had not yet experienced.
-Today…
-I don’t say this out of hype.
-I don’t say this out of emotion.
-I say this with confidence that my God can do anything.
There is nothing too hard for Him.
Luke 1:37
“For with God nothing shall be impossible.”
-I want to speak to every doubt… doubt, you have no place here.
-I want to speak to fear that has made itself at home… fear, you are being evicted today.
-I want to speak to anxiety and worry…
-To those who feel stuck, stranded, and without a way forward…
-I say boldly… anxiety and worry, you cannot occupy the minds of the people in this room.
-This is not positive thinking.
-This is not human optimism.
This is calling down strongholds that have held God’s people captive.
-We will not believe the lie that God is limited.
-Not today.
-Not tomorrow.
-Not next week.
-We are done putting limits on God.
-We are done accepting:
-He cannot heal.
-He cannot provide.
-His Word is not true.
Isaiah 55:8-9
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts… neither are your ways my ways…”
-God is not a bigger version of us.
-His ways are on a completely different level.
-Our thinking is limited.
-His power is not.
What feels impossible to you is still within the reach of God.
Psalm 145:3
“Great is the Lord… and his greatness is unsearchable.”
-You can experience His greatness… but you cannot exhaust it.
-Your greatest miracle is only a glimpse of what God can do.
-And what He wants to do… today.
-So let’s break down Ephesians 3:20:
Ephesians 3:20
“Now unto him that is able…”
-This begins with God’s ability.
-Not your strength. Not your limits.
“…to do…”
-God is active.
-He moves.
-He works.
“…exceeding abundantly…”
-Exceeding means beyond limits.
-Abundantly means more than enough.
“…above all that we ask or think…”
-God goes beyond your prayers.
-He goes beyond your imagination.
Even your biggest vision is still too small.
“…according to the power that worketh in us.”
-This is the key.
-The power is not distant.
-It is already at work within you.
-This is not just about what God can do.
-It is about what God can do through you.
CLARKE
“Therefore he is able to do all things, and able to do superabundantly above the greatest abundance.”
-Today…
-We step into a faith that goes beyond limits.
-Beyond fear.
-Beyond doubt.
-Beyond what we can ask or even think.
