PLACE NO LIMIT
“Now to him
that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that works in us,”
EPHESIANS
3:20 (KJV)
As we place our trust in God for the manifestation
of the desires of our heart, it is important we take heed that we place no
limit to what we can receive from God.
Certain times we might be tempted to think that
what we are about to ask of God is so big a thing for us to ask. I have
personally experienced times as this as I believe you might have experienced
also. We think this way because we are humans. There is nothing we will ask of God that is too big for him to do.
Our opening text lets us know that God is able to
do exceedingly abundantly . . . notice that Paul could have said, “God is able
to do abundantly. . .” rather he qualified the word “abundantly”. It is of note that God is able to exceed
our definition of abundance.
The Children of Israel murmured for meat, and God told Moses that he was
going to provide meat for them so much that they will have them to eat for a
month until it comes out of their nostrils. Moses quickly brought God’s
Knowledge to the fact that if all the flocks and herds be slain for them, or
all the fish of the sea be gathered together for them that it wasn’t going to
be sufficient for the people; immediately God replied Moses saying, “is the Lords hand waxed short? You shall
see now whether my word shall come to pass or not.”
When God provided the quails, it was a day’s journey to the right and a
day’s journey to the left, round about the camp and two cubits high above the
ground. Try imagining this scene, it was a shocking miracle – God is able to do same and much more for
you if only you can believe.
