Exceedingly & Abundantly

By Anonymous -
20 Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think , according to the power that worketh in us , 21 Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen
Ephesians 3:20

As I proclaimed this verse in prayer, a picture arose in my front of my closed eyes. God Holy Spirit, in His own unique way, showed me what He meant by this verse.
I spoke 'exceedingly' and saw someone lift up, cupping both their hands, something off the ground.
I spoke 'abundantly' and saw him spread his arms out wide.

'Exceeding' means increasing beyond expectation. Abundant means more than sufficient. Yes, God is able to do such feats as this - beyond our highest expectation and more than what we'd ever need. Not only He's able to do it, He's done it already in Jesus Christ, and thru Him on the cross.
Exceedingly Abundant was the sacrifice on the cross.
Exceedingly Abundant is His grace.
Exceedingly Abundant is just too much; more than we'd have room to hold.

What a blessing! That's as blessed as you can get - just too much!

He is with me!

I made a choice to knock on a door not meant for me. He warned me, I did not understand. I stood outside the door. He stood with me. I knocked the door, and it didn’t open for me. He stood with me. I knocked and I knocked. He knocked with me. The door did not open. I waited. He waited with me. I waited. He tried to lead me away from the wrong door. I didn’t understand. He waited. I was knocked down. He was with me. It was an iron door that refused to relent to my knocking. He was with me. I knocked the door till I was hurting and bleeding. He knocked for me. I knocked till was exhausted and weary. He was with me. I sat by the closed door and waited for 6 years, knocking now and then, wearing myself out. Keeping patience and losing it. He waited with me. I knocked off and on. He knocked way more than I did – for me. I refused to budge from the door not meant for me. He stayed. I didn’t understand anything. He understood everything. Yet, He wa

Perfect love casts out fear

I've learnt something about love. Love does not cause us to be weak. It makes us strong. The perfect love of the Father God makes us strong. It brings us life, joy and strength. When we love others with that love, we are strengthened within ourselves. The Word of God says - I do not have a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. Problems and disagreements may arise. People are not perfect. Not even that someone special in one's life. But love overlooks. Love conquers the imperfections. No love is not blind. But love is light. When one looks at another under the perfect light of love, all things fall into the perfect perspective. Wrongs are covered, forgiven, and forgotten. Love makes it easy to forgive. Love makes it easy to move on. Love makes everything clear. Decisions come easy, and one is confident that they did right. No matter how a situation turns out, when what we do is done is love, outcome is good. Father God blesses an action done out of lov

Misery Conquered!!

Catch 'em Unawares!! Misery closes our minds, blinds us and deafens our ears with too much noise in our heads. It is especially capable, with these tools, to eventually shut the door of our hearts. Here's a neat technique: Go into a quiet room with Misery and lock yourself in with it. Then, with no prior warning, drop on your knees and call upon the name of Jesus Christ, the Son of God and our Beloved. He'll come. (obviously!) Then, introduce Misery to Jesus Christ. Let Jesus deal with Misery. Now, for the very important part - you just need to sit back and rest Your Lord Jesus Christ does not need any help dealing with anything, but He sure appreciates you singing some praises. Believe me, your singing praises can distract even your worst enemy from doing his job. The accusator would have just one cause against you - that you sprang a stronger Ally on him and when he was only trying to fight and do his job, your singing distracted him.
