My soul clings to you,Your right hand upholds me.
“Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.” – Ephesians 3:20,21
I have heard this verse in so many prayers, sermons, and comments. But rarely have I heard it in scope of what this verse is crying out to us. Most of the time I hear it separated from the context and a powerful truth is missed. Paul has asked “that God would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might through His Spirit in the inner man, that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height — to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.” Paul is asking that we would be near our God and to know His love and this exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. This is more powerful than any other interpretation that might be given these verses.
