Ephesians 3:20,21 - Far Beyond All We Could Ever Ask

HIS WORDS

Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen. (NASB)

God can do anything, you know–far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams! He does it not by pushing us around but by working within us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us.

Glory to God in the church!
Glory to God in the Messiah, in Jesus!
Glory down all generations!
Glory through all millennia! Oh, yes! (The Message)

Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do super-abundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams] – To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it).

MY WORDS

Now to this glorious God Who, because of the action of the power of His Spirit, deeply and gently working within us, is able to do way beyond what we could ever hope, think, dream, or dare to ask or think – To Him be glory among all His people and in Christ Jesus to all future generations for forever and ever. Amen.

I WILL


I already prayed Ephesians 3:14-21 for my friend, Jenna, whose estranged husband has been through multiple surgeries since a motorcycle accident last week. Praying she knows and believes deeply the power of God’s unconditional love and that He will do beyond anything she can imagine.
