MORE THAN WE MIGHT ASK OR THINK!

EPHESIANS 3: 20

"Now all the glory to God, who is able,  through His mighty power that is at work within us, to accomplish infinitely MORE THAN WE MIGHT ASK OR THINK!"

Have you ever wondered how God can take someone who is not the sharpest knife in the drawer and accomplish miraculous things?  The Lord uses the foolish things of this world to confound the supposedly wise!  In fact God can take an ordinary individual and through His mighty power at work in them He can accomplish infinitely more than we would ever think or believe!  If the Holy Spirit resides in you, then you can become an instrument of the Lord to accomplish His purposes.  No matter what you do or accomplish, who would the Glory belong to?  Still the Lord is able to do exceedingly, abundantly  more through us than we would ever ask or think!  How does that make you feel?  What are your limitations if you are a child of God?

We as believer's need to recognize that it is God and His power that can work within us to accomplish His purposes.  If we will just yield ourselves to the Lord and have faith in Him we can do more than we would ever ask or believe.  God can accomplish supernatural things if we would just dare to ask Him and allow Him to work through us and in us.  Think of the greatest prayer, dream or hope that you have, nothing is too big for Jesus Christ the Lord God.  If we will just believe and have faith in the Lord and be willing to give Him all the glory, His mighty power can accomplish infinitely MORE THAN WE MIGHT ASK OR THINK!

Do you want to start and build the largest most powerful church in the country?  Do you want to write a book or study that will edify believer's?  Do you want to teach classes in God's Word that draw many students to your program.  Do you want to evangelize and bring thousands to a knowledge and belief in the Lord?  Do you want to start a ministry to feed, cloth and house the homeless?  Do you want to build orphanages around the world?  Do you want to bring everyone into one body that Knows, Loves and Fears God?  If you are willing to know and believe that all the Glory will belong to God and that you are His instrument, then go ahead and ask and pray for anything.  Remember it is God that will do MORE THAN WE MIGHT ASK OR THINK!
