To Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen. Ephesians 3:21

Our study reinforces Paul’s teaching on the verse highlighted above. We will examine what he wrote so that we may not miss out on the revelation that is present on verses 20 and 21. The apostle affirmed that God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. If you accept this in your heart and meditate over it, your faith will grow to the point that you will see the Lord fulfilling your needs.

This shows that we have missed out on too many things. Due to our lack of knowledge and faith, God has not done for us many of the things that we ask or think that we can receive from Him. The Lord only blesses us when we have faith. However, if we do not understand the Word, how will we be able to open the way for Him to come into action? We must fight a battle to rid ourselves from the unbelief that hinders the divine operations in our lives.

On verse 20, there is a great revelation. The Holy Spirit says through Paul that the Lord is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. God does not have to give you the power to do the good that you ask for or think about, because it has already been given. We end up not experiencing all this because we do not examine the Word carefully. 

Why not believe in the Most High and move ourselves to accomplish His promises? The Most High allows our desires to become true; we must only order their fulfillment. If He put His power in our lives to fulfill His will, it only depends on us for His work to be done. Once you understand this, put yourself in the proper position and declare your blessing.

The heavenly Father guarantees His favor for us. Therefore, whenever you pray, do not do it with doubt in your heart, but with faith! Once you are completely certain of what God says in the Word about your rights, he will fulfill your requests, because He will always honor His own promises. His power in you will do everything that you declare.

Verse 21 says that there must be glory in the Church, the Body of Christ. Everyone who is saved is a member of this Body. Therefore, your lips must be filled with praise to extol God. Be certain that the power from High will do something in your favor. After all, God never said anything that did not happen in the lives of those who believe in Him. However, the lack of understanding of the Scriptures hinder His operation in the lives of the saved ones.

The Word says that the divine operations will not be interrupted, but they will all be confirmed by the true, righteous and good God. This will happen in all generations, forever. If the world still exists for a thousand years, believe: the Almighty will honor what He declared. Believe now and enjoy of what is best from God.

In Christ, with love,
