What does exceedingly abundantly above all mean to God?

Ephesians 3:20 (KJV) ~ Unto Him that is able He is to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think
Bigger than all my problems, bigger than all my fears,

God is bigger than any mountain I can, or cannot, see,

Bigger than all my questions, bigger than anything,

God is bigger than any mountain I can, or cannot, see.

God is far bigger than I can ever imagine! God is a “doing” God! He is a God who is well able to do anything! He is able to do anything, far beyond our every human thought or imagination. The Bible says in Ephesians 3:20 (KJV), “Unto Him that is able He is to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think.”

There is no impossible circumstance too far gone that God cannot minister too,

No problem too big the God cannot solve,

No sickness He cannot heal,

No miracle which God cannot do,

No prayer which He cannot answer,

No sinner too lost in their sin that God cannot save,

No back-slider too far from God that God a cannot restore,

No city too hard that God cannot bring a mighty revival too.

For our God is well able to do far above all that we ask or think…He is able to do!

If we are honest with ourselves, we must admit that we, more often than not, tend to fix our eyes on the problem. Then as we dwell on it, we allow it grow until it becomes to us this huge mountain before us. However, in the eyes of our great and awesome God, it is but a speck of dust, which He can blow away by the gentlest breath. It can become all too easy to take our eyes off the awesomeness of God, to fleetingly gaze upon the circumstances, rather than fix our eyes upon our Almighty ADONAI, our EL SHADDAI, our God who is able to do far above all we can ask or think. The Bible says this in Jeremiah 32:17 (KJV), “Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee!”

My friend, let me encourage you today with these words from Ephesians 3:20 (KJV), “Unto Him that is able He is to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think.”

Our God is able to do whatever it is you need Him to do.

Our God is able to heal you.

Our God is able to rescue you.

Our God is able to save you.

Our God is able to meet all your needs.

Our God is able to turn things around for you.

Our God is able to restore you.

Our God is able heal your broken marriage.

Our God is able forgive you.

Our God is able to show you mercy and grace.

Our God is able answer all your prayers.

Our God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think.

Our God is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine.

Our God is a great big God, bigger than all our problems; He is bigger than anything.

Think on this little song by Andy Griffith, but written by ‘Lange/Hearth/Burke.’

‘Who made made the mountains, who made the trees, who made rivers flow to the sea?

And who sends the rain when the earth is dry. Somebody bigger than you and I.

Who made the flowers to bloom in the spring, who made the song for the Robin’s to sing.

And who hung the moon in the stray sky, somebody bigger than you and I.

He will give you love to guide you, and He will walk beside you just as He walks with me.

When I am weary filled with despair, who gives me courage to go on from there?

And who gives me faith that will never die. Somebody bigger that you and I.

We may never grasp how awesome God is, or the enormity of God. Or even how omnipotent, omnipresent or omniscient He is. However, may we gasp the fullness of this promise from the Lord in, Ephesians 3:20 (KJV) ~ Unto Him that is able He is to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we can ask or think. Because our God is an awesome God

  1. However, just because He's able does not mean He will.
