We have dreams. We envision goals. We imagine works we would like to accomplish in our lifetime. We develop mental images of ways the Lord may use us. And if we have the openness and willingness toward those things, that is wonderful. However, the most awesome thing about this is what God may desire and is able to do even beyond those dreams.
Paul elevated the focus with these encouraging words:
“(20) 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, (21) to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” (Ephesians 3:20-21 ESV)
Do we believe that? God is able to do not just more, but abundantly more than all we may ask or imagine. And this is connected to His power He is ready and willing to work within us! Wow!
So go ahead and dream! Go ahead and imagine! Then let us allow God to empower us, and do in and through us, the powerful work He desires to do. As His purposes will prevail (Proverbs 19:21), may we allow them to be done through us! Praise God for His awesome power connection!
Have a great day REMAINING PLUGGED INTO GOD’S POWER!
