Thoughts on Today's Verse...

What grand "Kingdom dreams" do you have for God's glory?
What incredible ideas can you imagine requesting that God would bring to fruition?
What are your expectations of heaven with God?
Now that you have stretched your mind a little, challenged your imagination a bit, and loaded up your expectations for the future, are you ready for some down-to-earth truth straight from the true Marvel of heaven, God Almighty?
God "is able to do immeasurably more" than any of that. God's "power at work within us" will do his glorious will and accomplish his eternal purposes, which far exceed what we can imagine, ask, or even believe. We must not set our sights too low and expect too little. We can live for God's glory and expect to see it at work in our lives as we live for him!

Video Commentary...

We've included Phil's ToGather video from four years ago as an added blessing to our verse today:

My Prayer...

O Lord, God of heavens and earth, my Abba Father and loving Shepherd, please stir my thoughts with your Spirit to dream bigger dreams and have higher hopes than my earthbound and selfish brain can imagine, then do more than that! Please give me a sense of wonder and expectation as I live for your glory in my life. In Jesus' name, I pray in expectation. Amen.
