James 1:19

DEVOTION OF THE MONTH OF OCTOBER TO THE MOST HOLY ROSARY OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
October 1, 2023
THE 30TH OF SEPTEMBER
GOD IS NOT DOING MORE IN US THAN OUR FREE WILL ALLOWS HIM TO DO
Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, for ever and ever. Amen. – Ephesians 3:20-21
God is able to do super-abundantly more than all we dare to ask or think, infinitely beyond our boldest prayers, hopes and dreams. We are the ones who limit Him by how much we allow the Holy Spirit to fill and work in us. The Lord can do it all, but it is up to us to allow Him do it. The closer we get to our Lord, the more time we spend in His presence and the hungrier we are for more of Him, the more we can receive from God.
We set the limits, not God, because He is not doing more in us than our free will allows Him to do. God deserves all the glory and honor in the church and in Christ Jesus, for everything good in us and in our lives. His plan is perfect and everything He decides is for a reason. We can receive from Him as much as we believe for and it is for our good.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Dear Lord, You truly deserve all glory, honor, respect and veneration. I can never thank You enough for all You do for me. Please forgive me for setting such low limits, by not having enough faith and not dreaming, praying and hoping high enough. There are no limits for Your power, so please help me believe for all You have in Your plans for me and help me dare to ask for all You want me to have and do while on this earth. Thank You and praise You for everything. In the Name of Jesus I pray. Amen
