God does infinitely more!

²⁰Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us,
Ephesians 3:20

God exceeds our expectations and achievements. His ability is unlimited, so be free to pray to God. No matter how big your problem is, trust in God's power, He can fulfill everything you ask for according to His Word.

Dream big and remember that God is king of everything. He has power over all situations and always keeps his promises. Put your trust in him and see his mighty hand at work.

¹⁷“Ah, Sovereign Lord, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you."
Jeremiah 32:17

Nothing is impossible for God! He created everything that exists and you can trust in his greatness and power. Bring your worries and concerns before him with confidence. Remember that no matter how great your problem or need is, God is greater and more powerful.

So put your trust in God, seek Him in faith, and expect to see His mighty hand at work in your life. He is the God who does infinitely more, and His grace and mercy are abundant for those who seek Him.

⁷“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord,
whose confidence is in him.
⁸They will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit.”
Jeremiah 17:7-8

Forgive and be forgiven

And when you stand praying, if you hold anything against anyone, forgive them, so that your Father in heaven may forgive you your sins.
- Mark 11:25

Many people mistakenly believe that they can only forgive if the other person apologizes. But if we think forgiveness is only possible when someone asks for it, it often becomes unreachable because some people will never say sorry for the wrongs they’ve done.

It is possible to forgive even when the other person is far away and we don’t know if they’ve repented or not. In some cases, we may need to forgive someone who has already passed away. In that situation, there is no chance for them to show any remorse.

That’s why it’s so important to confess our sins and ask God for forgiveness, in the name of Jesus.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
- 1 John 1:9

Unforgiveness is like poison, it steals our joy and keeps us from living the life God wants for us. If you find it hard to forgive, ask God for help, take the first step, and forgive. When we forgive, we release a heavy burden and can move forward with confidence, knowing that God is merciful.

Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. “Do not judge, and you will not be judged. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven.
- Luke 6:36–37

The Father’s table

Jesus described heaven as a meal shared with the people we love. In many ways, the table resembles heaven: it is a place of fellowship and rest where we renew our strength. The table is the place where we set aside differences and find acceptance and forgiveness. This is precisely what Jesus offers us!

You can come to the Father’s table just as you are, but you will not leave the same way. When we sit with God and enjoy His presence, our hearts are filled with peace and joy. Being with the Lord transforms us and brings great happiness to our being.

Jesus sat at the table with all kinds of people (Matthew 9:10), because His mission was to bring healing to their hearts. God’s mercy reaches out to you today. What do you need to receive from the Father’s table today?

Do you need peace? The Lord tells you:

Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
- John 14:27

Do you need forgiveness?

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness.
- 1 John 1:9

Are you discouraged by life’s challenges? Do not forget:

So do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
- Isaiah 41:10

Whatever your situation may be at this moment, draw near to the Father’s table and receive strength to move forward. Being in God’s presence will transform your whole being.
