If you knew that you could accomplish your wildest dreams, what would you dream? Would you dream about obtaining lots of money, finding the perfect job or spouse or both, finding success on your Field of Dreams, retiring on a beach somewhere, or visiting some exotic location? Our dreams are usually somewhat selfish and still require a lot of self-effort and determination.
Ephesians 3:20-21 says, “Now to him who is able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think, according to the power at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” The same power that created the universe through His breath is available to us in His Holy Spirit living in those of us who believe in Jesus Christ. What God wants to do in us and through us is more abundant than we have asked or even thought about. But this abundant power will be used for His glory and to accomplish good for people, not for selfish gain. There is no limit to what God wants to do in and through us for His glory. So let’s open our minds and our hearts to allowing God’s power through the Holy Spirit do great things for His glory.
