“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.” (Ephesians 3:20-21)
(Ron Halle) “This has never happened to me before,” I told my air conditioning company owner after he completed some work on my A/C system. He is also a Christian brother and friend, so that might have something to do with the fact he “overdelivered” on making changes to my A/C system.
Sadly, it’s a rare occurrence to get more than you were promised, whether it’s a meal at a restaurant or the latest hi-tech gadget. In the midst of all the world’s underperformance, Christians have the honor of serving a God who actually overdelivers on the promises He has made to His people.
What exactly are these promises we’ve been given? The Apostle Paul tells us we have every spiritual blessing. “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places.” (Ephesians 1:3, ESV)
