A DOXOLOGY FROM EPHESIANS 3:20-21

The letter to the Ephesians is one of four of the epistles that the Apostle wrote while he was imprisoned. Probably written around 61-62 A.D. In chapter 3 Paul is discussing the “mystery” of the gospel and how it has now been fully revealed in Christ. Verses 14-21 is really a prayer that Paul prays for the Ephesian church. That prayer concludes with these words:

 

“Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all we can ask or think, according to the power that works in us

 

To Him be glory in the church, and in Christ Jesus throughput all generations, forever and ever. AMEN!”

 

Again, I ask you: what do those words say about the greatness and majesty of God?

 

1st – there is nothing that God cannot do. God can do greater things than we can ask or even think. That is how great our God really is.

 

2nd – That God lives IN us, in our hearts.

 

3rd – The greater glory of God will be found in His church, which is the Body and Bride of Christ. Let that sink in deeply! In the CHURCH!

 

4th – That glory is found in a world without end, forever and ever!

 

That is the God of our salvation!
