Discuss Ephesians 3 Page 13

I see Ephisians 3:20 as unending hope for Believers. It reassures us that God is a God of all possibilities. I thank God for His ever presence in every area of my life. His exceeding Grace is sufficient for me!!! Glory to God!

Verse 17 being rooted and grounded in love is my desire so I am believing in his grace that no root of the enemy, namely bitterness grounded in hate will grow to fruition.

I think that our faith described here is like a secret door that reaches into heavenly places. When we read and study the word our faith grows, for instance by meditating on Ephesians 3, we learn that through love and faith in God, there is nothing He can not do for us.

God indeed loves us, because God is love. He who did not spare His only begotten Son, how shall he not give us freely all things to enjoy? ( Romans 8:32).

Note that the Apostle is taking up from verse one and that the whole of verses 2-13 are a parenthesis. What is the "cause" that leads to the Apostle to his knees? That which he mentioned in chapter 2 regarding what God has done through His Grace. Blessed Grace of God.

THis verse demonstrates the need to study the scriptures very carefully. Some of the translations here above render the verse to be that we have Boldness and confident access by "our faith IN Christ" as opposed to the KJV that says "the faith of Him", i.e. His Faithfulness (trustworthiness)". I prefer the latter rendition as it is more consistent with the revelation Of Gods Grace that Paul speaks of here in Ephesians and in his epistles as a whole. Praise God.

As a Gentile believer who had no hope in this world it is heartening to know that God had before teh foundation of the world made a provision for us. Verse 10 brings a smile when one sees that God wanted to show the Angelic beings His Manifold Wisdom as revealed in His Eternal Purpose in Christ Jesus our Lord. God would have ALL man to be saved through the Grace that is in our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen to that

Youngs Literal Bible renders the word "Unsearchable" as "Untraceable" rather than the other translations which speaks of "Unfathomable" and "exhaustless". THis shows that Pauls Gospel is not to be found in the Old testament, nor even in the so- called Gospels, but was a new message that was the subject of a new dispensation as he mentions in this chapter. What a glorious thing the Grace of God is. "Christ in you (Gentiles). The hope of glory" hallelujah

How encouraging the 1st verse is! Paul is in prison in Rome (and yet he calls himself ''a prisoner of Jesus for us gentiles!)
We would have been lost without these epistles . Yes, the wholeBible is written with the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Thank you my Lord.

This here is the crux of the matter that explains why the majority of the Christian church is failing. It is failing because of not recognizing that God had imparted to Paul a new dispensation (administration/programme) that was hitherto kept secret. but now reveal to him for the Gentiles. It is a dispensation of Almighty God's Grace, in particular to Gentiles who were far from God and having no Hope in this world, but also to Jews who believe. A knowledge of the Mystery is truly liberating. This ties in with Paul's discussion in the previous chapter about the eternal building consisting of the Kingdom Church and the Body of Christ.

In this family there is a special relationship to God. There are no outsiders, not in heaven or in earth. That family is related by the blood and covenant. His named is placed on the family to identify who they are . His name has some power and responsibilities with it. What is the name of the family? There is only one name and that is Jesus.

This verse is talking about knowing the love of Christ. As this verse shows, it means more than just having "head knowledge." This knowledge must affect one's heart. We can learn about Christ's love by reading the Bible, but we truly come to appreciate and know that love more by practical application in our lives. This way we come to truly appreciate the feelings of the Christ and we will "know the love of the Christ" through personal experience.

I belive in the word of God cos his words remains sure and perfectly true. Its just a matter of faith and being obedient to his word.I belive he wil do exceedingly abundantly above what we even think of let alone sayin it with our mouth

My God is awsome
as a child i have hid in my heart a love for the first man who asked for me. But my parents said no to the offer. I went on and lived in a marriage for 32 years with abuse mentally, physically and emotionally from both spouse and relatives. MY marriage was over after 32yrs. just as i asked god to allow my yongest to turn 17 and then i would go back to ministry full time. God in his goodness was so good to me. I believed that one day God would rescue me, i would be free. Free to love who i have always loved. Him God first and then the youthful pure love as a memory. But two yrs. ago God opened the door and i spoke to the man of 32yrs. God brought him to me. Not as a lover but as a support, a friend closer than a brother, an encourager and a confidont. It feel great to love without boundaries, without carnality and more than all to prove God: " 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..." it is a wonderful experince when our faith produces. for with our hearts, we belief in righteousness and with our mouth we speak the word and bring our thoughts to actions and life.

My God is awesome he specializes in things that are impossible he can do what no one else can do. he can do all that we ask for and could ever think of

1 For what is Jesus the savior of ? Does the Bible say it is the Bible?
Ephesians 1:22-23...... And he put all things beneath his feet and gave him as "HEAD OVER ALL THINGS TO THE CHURCH", which is his body"
2 Who is the teacher of all the wisdom of GOD? Does the Bible say it is the Bible?
Ephesians 3:10 " To me, the very least of all the holy ones, this grace was given, to preach to the Gentiles the inscrutable riches of Christ, so that the manifold wisdom of God might now be made known through the "CHURCH" to the principalities and authorities in the heavens".
3 For what did Christ give Himself up? Does the Bible say it is the Bible?
Ephesians 5:25. "Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ loved the "CHURCH" and handed himself over for her

Almighty Father is able to do very great things which to our physical eye seems impossible.so we should always ask Him whatever we want provided it is according to His will.He has great power to do all

When I read this verse Eph 3:20 what comes in my mind is a rewind of my life 20 years back when I did not have a clue what God would do in my life to reach this state of blessedness today. I had absolutely no idea when I asked Lord Jesus to bless & take over my life. Today I stand with my Jaws open, mouth wide open, eyes popping out just even to comprehend what great good things God did in my life. He is truly an amazing God to a worthless creature like me. You just have to give Lord Jesus one chance and experience the difference, it will blow you off.

To me this verse simply tells that there is nothing our God cannot do.He can do more than we can imagine,or think,He can do anything but fail lets just anchor our faith in Him and He will do it for us,Praise the Lord

To go on ones knees is an act of position. you are not standing nor are you walking or lying down. Each of these have a meaning example walking is a type of your relationship with God. bowing down on your knees is a type of worship. and notice it is not one knee but both. This notes a sold out position to God. Also this is to the Father and it is a relationship we have with God because of his son Jesus the Christ. It is through Jesus that we are able to come to the father by the blood.

This verse is a definite Promise from our Father who loves us beyond compare. I have been a Pastor of the same church now for 35 yrs. And God has ALWAYS amazed me at how He can do exceedingly abundantly above all we can ask or think. This is the True Secret of the kingdom of God thru His Son Jesus Christ. The Secret is Let Him figure out the How and You Learn to commit to trusting that this is a Truth.

This verse makes me know that God is able to do greater things than what i even ask Him. It also makes me understand that God has no limit as to His abilities.Thus,He is able to give me more than i can ever ask Him.What a joy to know to know this about my God.

This verse allows the people of God to know that their hope is in him. He is a great and mighty God; he can and will do anything but fail.

Infact, I have been facing series of negative thoughts as to how to make it as I now find myself in a new country.However,this Eph.3:20, has given me hope that my God is able to do everything for me.I thank you God for giving hope.

God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all we ask or think,but its according to the power which works in us and that power is from God.That's why Paul said he could do all things through Christ(anointing)which works strengthens him.

Today great things will happen in my life. My God is doing exceedingly abundantly, much more than i can ask or think of. Today i am Richer in Him and Richer Financially.

My Family is bless beyond i can imagine.
Thank you Lord for your Blessings on me.

Good!!

Good!!

I love that book it has a lot of about the apostle Paul and his
Missionary journey to go and preach unto the sinners and to tell them about Gods love and how many God cared for them and he also was leading people to The Lord

Compare Paul's prayer with our prayers nowadays.
