Do you really believe God can do far more than we ask or think?
Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:20-21
Glorious God,
We believe; we confess our unbelief.
For the past few days,
we’ve been praying Paul’s prayer
asking you to strengthen us
through the power of your Spirit,
for the purpose of comprehending
your incomprehensible love.
As we come to the end of this series,
we must ask ourselves honestly,
do we dare to pray this prayer:
You are able to do far more abundantly
than all that we ask or think—
How do you do it?
By working within us,
through your power (not ours).
Why do you do it?
For the glory of the church
and for the glory of Jesus Christ
through all generations, forever and ever and ever.
Today, help us to see how you have already inscribed
your incomprehensible love into our stories
and into the redemption of your cosmos.
.
By the power of your Spirit and because of your glory,
help us to grasp how much you really love us, Lord,
and make that love flow boldly through our lives.
In Jesus’ everything-changing name. Amen.
Read Ephesians 3:14-21.
