Much More

“Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think” Eph.3:20 [emphasis added]

 

God does not just want us to have life; God wants us to have life abundantly. Abundance or when something is in abundance simply means more than enough, or beyond what is required. Imagine you are asking God for two units and He gives you two thousand units. There is only one word for that and it is abundance. Imagine you are trusting God for a promotion at work and He gives you a triple promotion. The only word for that is abundance. However, there are things that put a limitation on us and we are not able to walk in the fullness of the abundance that God has for us.

#1. Positional Limitations. When you are wrongly positioned, you are going to have challenges with abundance. An obvious one from a spiritual standpoint is, if you are not in Christ you are wrongly positioned. Why? When you are in Christ, the Scripture says you are seated in heavenly places, far above principalities and powers together with Christ. In Christ you are above limits.  When you are not in Christ, you are under the control of the elements. If you are wrongly positioned, I pray that you will reposition in God, in Jesus Name.

#2. Resource Limitations. Sometimes, we allow ourselves to be limited by our resources. And an expression of that is the statement; I do not have enough money. Or I wish I had more of abc, I would have done that for God. The truth is that your destiny does not depend on your resources. I know this would sound strange to some people but it is the truth. Your destiny does not depend on your resources. You and God know what is in your bank account and it is obvious that He cannot possibly depend on that. God does not depend on our resources to take us where He wants to take us.

You need to take your eyes off your resources. When Jesus was about to feed the five thousand men [not counting women and children], He asked the disciples what do you have? And the disciples came back saying we only have five loaves and two fish; what is this among so many? In other words, this resource is too little to fulfill the objective. And Jesus said, tell them to sit down.

 

Prayer: Lord Jesus, I reaffirm my belief that You are able, through Your mighty power at work within me, to accomplish infinitely more than I might ask or think, in Jesus Name.
