God can do with you, perhaps, more than you believe. God “is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within” you (Eph.3:20). The real question is, “what will you ASK God to do with you?”
God is able “to build you up and give you the inheritance among all those who are sanctified” (Acts 20:32). Will you ask Him to give you that inheritance?
God is able to, because of your faith, to do all he has promised, and by your faith credit it to you as righteousness (Rom. 4:19-22). Will you by faith ask Him to fulfill his promises and count you as righteous?
God is able to help you “overwhelmingly conquer” all things, in order that nothing will separate you from His love (Rom. 9:37-39). Will you ask Him to help you be a conqueror, and to hold you in His love?
God is able by His kindness, though you may at some time reject Him, to graft you in again to His tree (Rom. 11:20-25). Will you ask Him to be so kind to you?
God is able, in spite of those who may unfairly judge you, to help you stand if you are standing with Him (Rom. 14: 1-4). Will you ask Him to help you stand?
God is able to fill you with joy and peace so that you may abound in hope (Rom.15:13). Will you ask him to fill you with joy and peace, producing an abundance of hope within you?
God is able to keep you from sin because “He will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able to bear… so that you will be able to endure it (I Cor. 10:13). Will you ask Him to keep you from sin by helping you endure?
God is able to comfort you, and then to make you a comfort to others (II Cor. 1:4). Will you ask to both comfort you and to help you be a comforter to others?
God “is able to make all grace abound to you, so that always having all sufficiency in everything, you may have abundance for every good deed” (Rom. 9:8). Will you ask Him for the grace to accomplish every good deed?
God is able to “grant you the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit in the inner man, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God” (Eph. 3:16-19).
Thus, we have come to where we began, perhaps, seeing God can do far more with each one of us than we think. And, the real question remains the same; “What will we ASK God to do?
