In this glorious doxology (an expression of consummate praise to God), the Apostle Paul expressed the simple, yet profound premise that “God is Able!” As I tried to demonstrate in this message, every true believer must begin with the simple, powerful concept that God is Able (click here to listen to the sermon.)

 

 Here is the message outline with some passages for additional study:

Praise and Exalt the God . . .

1. Who is able.

This is the potential aspect – God’s capacity – to do infinitely more

  • than we ask
  • than we think

2. Who is at work in us.

This is the practical aspect – God’s conducting of His Work through us.

  • According to God’s Power
  • Presently working in us

Additional Study: Note the appeals for extravagant blessings: Philippians 1:9; 4:19, Colossians 1:9-11, 1 Thessalonians 3:11-12, 2 Thessalonians 1:3, 1 Corinthians 1:4-5

God is Able!

Matthew 10:28, Acts 20:32, Romans 4:20-22, 2 Cor. 9:8, Philippians 3:21, 2 Timothy 1:12, Hebrews 2:18; 7:25
