Who (the Lord) is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. (Ephesians 3:20)
Our God is able to do whatever it is you need Him to do.
Our God is able to heal you.
Our God is able to rescue you.
Our God is able to save you.
Our God is able to meet all your needs.
Our God is able to turn things around for you.
Our God is able to restore you.
Our God is able heal your broken marriage.
Our God is able forgive you.
Our God is able to show you mercy and grace.
Our God is able answer all your prayers.
Our God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think.
Our God is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.
Our God is a great big God, bigger than all our problems; He is bigger than anything.
In the Bible we see that King Solomon walked in the ways of the Lord and He was pleased with him. When King Solomon offered sacrifices to God, He was pleased with him. That night the Lord appeared to him and said, “Ask! What shall I give you?" (1 Kings 3:5).
Solomon replied, "Give to Your servant an understanding heart to judge Your people, that I may discern between good and evil. For who is able to judge this great people of Yours?" (1 Kings 3:9).
The Lord was pleased with the reply of Solomon that He not only blessed him with wisdom and understanding but also with exceeding riches, wealth and glory. “I have also given you what you have not asked: both riches and honor, so that there shall not be anyone like you among the kings all your days” (1 Kings 3:13).
A heart of understanding will enable you to do good and shun evil. Many times we do what we don’t like or should not do. This is what the Apostle Paul says, “For what I am doing, I do not understand. For what I will to do, that I do not practice; but what I hate, that I do” (Romans 7:15). This is the work of the enemy.
Though our hearts desire to do good, we end up doing what we should not do. The plans of the enemy lead to destruction. The Bible says, “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” (John 10:10).
Dear Friend, walk in the ways of the Lord and live a life that pleases Him. When you ask the Lord to bless you with an understanding heart like King Solomon had asked, the Lord will be exceedingly pleased. He will also bless you with goodness that you have not asked. The Bible says, “Who (the Lord) is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think" (Ephesians 3:20). So Rejoice! The Lord will bless you exceedingly more than you can ask or imagine or think with His goodness when you ask Him.
Bigger than all my problems, bigger than all my fears,
God is bigger than any mountain I can, or cannot, see,
Bigger than all my questions, bigger than anything,
God is bigger than any mountain I can, or cannot, see.
God is far bigger than I can ever imagine! God is a “doing” God! He is a God who is well able to do anything! He is able to do anything, far beyond our every human thought or imagination. The Bible says in Ephesians 3:20, “Unto Him that is able He is to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think.”
There is no impossible circumstance too far gone that God cannot minister too,
No problem too big the God cannot solve,
No sickness He cannot heal,
No miracle which God cannot do,
No prayer which He cannot answer,
No sinner too lost in their sin that God cannot save,
No back-slider too far from God that God a cannot restore,
No city too hard that God cannot bring a mighty revival too.
For our God is well able to do far above all that we ask or think…He is able to do!
If we are honest with ourselves, we must admit that we, more often than not, tend to fix our eyes on the problem. Then as we dwell on it, we allow it grow until it becomes to us this huge mountain before us. However, in the eyes of our great and awesome God, it is but a speck of dust, which He can blow away by the gentlest breath. It can become all too easy to take our eyes off the awesomeness of God, to fleetingly gaze upon the circumstances, rather than fix our eyes upon our Almighty Lord, our God who is able to do far above all we can ask or think. The Bible says this in Jeremiah 32:17, “Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee!”
We may never grasp how awesome God is, or the enormity of God. Or even how omnipotent, omnipresent or omniscient He is. However, may we gasp the fullness of this promise from the Lord in, Ephesians 3:20 (KJV) ~ Unto Him that is able He is to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think. Because our God is an awesome God!
