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. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.
—Ephesians 3:20-21 NLT
We confess that God is all powerful. Paul's prayerful burst of praise in our passage today reminds us of an additional and breathtaking truth: Through the power of the Holy Spirit at work within us, God can do infinitely more than we can ask or think. God is able. The Spirit is powerful. So we can be more than we can even imagine!
Glorious God, give me the courage to dream kingdom dreams for you and trust that you can do more than I can imagine. Forgive me for thinking too small. And do all this to your glory, not mine. In the name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
