Beyond All
Imagination
Read Ephesians 3:20-21
Paul says, “Now to Hi who is
able to do above and beyond all that we ask or think…” (Ephesians 3:20). Of all
the passages in Ephesians, this one is probably quoted the most. The New
International Version translation says “more than all we ask or imagine.” That word
imagine grabs your attention. Because
most of us have a pretty good imagination. And God can do abundantly and
immeasurably more than all we can
imagine. God must be pretty amazing because I can dream up some pretty crazy
stuff. But where did my imagination come from? It came from Him. He gives us
our imagination. And He can do immeasurably more than anything we can ask or
think or imagine. But no matter what I can dream up this passage is about God’s
omnipotent power. God’s power is more than anything I can fathom. None of us.
These two verses (3:20-21) Paul
wants to remind his listeners that God’s mercy and grace are all the magnified in
light of His infinite power. And all glory is due Him.
The same power that raised
Christ from the dead now lives in us. We must never forget that.
Write
out Ephesians 3:20-21 and
God for the blessing of your imagination
and praise Him that He is infinitely greater and more powerful than anything we
can ask or think or imagine.
I Pray that God would give
you boldness to proclaim His Word. Have an intentional day!
