BLESSED BEYOND EXPECTATIONS
By. Rev Michael Benson Ajayi
Ephesians 3:20 " 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,"
The word 'according' as used in this context is the Greek word 'Kata' which means: beyond measure,far more exceeding, natural,mightily . Therefore, what this scriptures means is that whenever we pray for a thing, we have unlimited power within us that comes naturally as children of God to bring about the manifestation of our desires beyond our expectations. Our true strength is immeasurable and mighty through God. The power of God doesn't exist in measures, therefore, we are fully loaded with unlimited power for a victorious life.
The doctrine that says some persons are more powerful is a misinterpretation of John 3:34" For he whom God hath sent speaketh the words of God: for God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto him." The italicized phrase unto him was added by the translators of the bible. Therefore, it should read "..for God giveth not the Spirit by measure ." The anointing doesn’t exist in sizes ; you are either anointed or not.All Spirit-filled born again christians are anointed (John15:16) with unlimited power (Acts1:8)
The burden of the working of miracles is exclusively within the purview of the workings of the Holy Spirit. He is the miracle worker and uses persons or things as He pleases. The scriptures says in 1cor.12:10" To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues: But all these worketh that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will".
Nobody or group of persons have the monopoly of the Holy Spirit and He does not reside in a church or christian ministry. The reverse is the case, we live in Him, just as fishes live in the ocean. The ocean passes through them even in death. Acts 17: 28 says "For in him we live, and move, and have our being; ....." God does not live in a cathedral, therefore it is erroneous to refer to one as the house of God ,Acts 17:24 says " God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands;"
The scriptures says "without me ye can do nothing "(John 15:5) therefore, it is unscrupulous for any preacher or individual to claim to be powerful, God does not work miracles according to how powerful a preacher is because in the first place there is no such thing as a powerful preacher. Preachers who claim to be powerful stand the danger of being rejected like the fellows in Matthew 7:22 -23 "Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." they thought they were the ones working the miracles and never bothered developimg a personal relationship with the miracle worker : the Holy Ghost. The scriptures says in Philipians 2:13 "For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. "
It is His pleasure to work miracles, and it has nothing to do with how we feel or our judgments, Jonah never wanted to preach in Nineveh yet God used him to save the nation from doom. There is power in the spoken word of God, it is the same as the Holy Ghost and is always at work in the lives of those who have received the spoken word. 1Thes.2:13 "For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when ye received the word of God which ye heard of us, ye received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually worketh also in you that believe." Paul was careful to acknowledged that despite his numerous achievements he was not behind it all but the Holy Ghost , he said in Colossians 1:29 "Whereunto I also labour, striving according to his working, which worketh in me mightily." Our confidence shouldn't be on anything but the mighty power of God at work in us and as you read this now receive grace for extraordinary breakthroughs in your finances, health,marriage, businesses, ministry in Jesus name.
