His EXceeding Abundance

In the book of Ephesians 3:20, two clear secrets were revealed
~ God has the ability to do beyond the human imagination [divine provisioning].
~ His ability to perform is in accordance to the presence of His power at work in a believer.
"Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us," - Ephesians 3:20
This implies that God's power needs to be fully made manifest in the life of a believer before there can be an experience of His divine abundance.
What is God's power?
God's power is the manifestation of His personality, through Christ(The Living Word-John 1(:14)), by the Holy Spirit.
Romans 1:16-17 gives an insight to the power of God as being the gospel of Christ (The Word) which reveals His righteosness.
_v16 >> For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation...v17>>>For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith...
The revelation behind the scripture:
An evidence of God's power in a believer is first His righteousness, which draws in His abundance accordingly. In Matthew 6:33, Jesus confirms that.
Qs:
Have I yielded to God to take/have preeminence in my life?
Key:
His exceeding abundance does not operate (or actualize) outside His power in you.
Note:
His exceeding abundance is not limited to needs/wants. The bible says "...above all you ask or think". Speak His Word, Meditate on His Word, Manifest His purpose.
Remain forever blessed.

In Christ is all we need

Luke 5:1-11 NIV; 2 Peter 1:3 NIV. Praise God! Happy new year!!! One time, I was meeting friends for a game of badminton. When I arrived at the court, I noticed I had come with the wrong bag. I planned to play in shorts, but I played in trousers, and my very competitive friends were not merciful. Peter described the Christian life almost like my backpack experience, except that he made the right switch. He picked the one that had all he needed for his journey. In Luke's passage (Luke 5:1-11 NIV), he records Peter's first meeting with Jesus. It was at a time when he had toiled all night but couldn't catch any fish. So he parked his boat by the seashore. But when Jesus saw Peter's boat, he got into it and used it to teach the crowd the word of God - to meet their spiritual needs. Again, in displaying his divine miraculous power, he used the boat to provide much fish - to meet the physical needs of Pet

The Worshipped King

Matthew 2:1-12. Once, I was with some friends, and we saw a famous person; they all got very excited, but I did not. When they began chatting about the celebrity, they realised why I missed the excitement. Matthew presents Jesus in a famous manner that demands a response that those who know Him can not miss out on. The gospel begins by showing that the nature of Jesus' birth proves He is the one all history and prophecies point to. He is The Promised King. He is of David's lineage (Matthew 1:17, 2 Samuel 7:13). The Promised Saviour. He is the seed of a woman, i.e. not of man but of God, like the first Adam (Matthew 1:18, Genesis 3:15). The Promised Lord. He is Immanuel - God with us - Israel's God is here (Matthew 1:23, Isaiah 7:14). So the news is out that Israel's God - The Messiah King, The Saviour, The Lord - whom all generations hoped for is now here.

Psalm 91: A Complete Refuge 4

Psalm 91 [short series]. The Psalm is not only an assurance of God's refuge in this life but also a sermon of hope - a hope for a trouble-free, satisfying next life. The Psalmist describes the next life in the context of sight, what you will see. It's like sightseeing in a place with a restricted area, where you need a pass to get into. He mentions two sights: judgment (v8) and salvation (v16). And, for those in God's refuge, their sightseeing ends with salvation into a satisfying life. His Refuge is complete into the next life! Psalm 91:7-10, 16 So, two sights... You will see judgment (v7-10) Verse 7 begins by alluding to troubles in thousands falling around you but not coming near you. Does this mean if you trust God, no evil will befall you? Well, yes and no! It's an issue of timing - this life or the next life. Let's see how the Psalm unpacks this prom
