2.v. Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think,

2 Chronicles 25:9  ” And Amaziah said to the man of God, “But what shall we do about the hundred talents that I have given to the army of Israel?” The man of God answered, “The Lord is able to give you much more than this.”

Ephesians 3:20  Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think,

1 Corinthians 2:9    But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him”—

Ephesians 1:19    and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might

Psalms 36:8-9    They feast on the abundance of your house, and you give them drink from the river of your delights.  For with you is the fountain of life; in your light do we see light.

Daniel 3:17    If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king.  But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.”

God has no limits and there is nothing He doesn’t understand.  He created the galaxies, universe, planets, stars, air, light, water, plants, animals, and mankind.  By His wisdom, He spoke all of this into creation.  All physics, quantum physics, chemistry, biochemistry, biology, microbiology, gravity, gravitational wave, electromagnetic attraction, and a host of other sciences are all our attempts at explaining what He has created or have been knowledge glimpses given by Him to point us toward His awesome knowledge, understanding, power, might, and wisdom.

Before we got “so smart” there were very few on earth that did not think there was/is a god, gods, or God.  They could see the mysteries of the skies and the wonders of the earth in everything that God created.  They knew it came from someone greater than themselves.  The problem is that they distorted this into false gods, false teachings, and false obedience.  Over time we have grown so smart that we have those who clearly state that there is no God and everything started from a big bang and evolved into what we are now.  Millions of people have chosen to believe these lies.   Others have had their desire and seeking of the Creator limited. They no longer seek Him with an earnest desire. Their eyes are blind and their mind made dull to the Creator and all things created by Him.    

No matter how smart we think we have become.  No matter how much knowledge and understanding of the sciences we can explain.  No matter what the human explanation is, God is still God and creator.  He has reached out to mankind;

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.  For everyone who does wicked things hates the light and does not come to the light, lest his works should be exposed. But whoever does what is true comes to the light, so that it may be clearly seen that his works have been carried out in God.”

The verses today are but a few of hundreds that all speak of the love of God and “the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might”

There are many who will try to explain away God.  There are many who teach false gods.  There are those who teach the truth about God.  And yet, it all comes down to me/you and our intentional choice to honor, serve, follow, trust, obey, believe in and rely on the true Creator.  It all comes down to our desire and commitment to Him for He alone is God and worthy of all praise, honor, service, trust, obedience, and glory.
