God can do anything you know—far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request, in your wildest dreams!  He does it not by pushing us around but by working with us, his Spirit deeply and gently within us”. Ephesians 3:20 (MSG)

Have you ever asked someone to do something for you, something that really mattered, and it never happened? Maybe they forgot, got too busy, didn’t care enough, or were unable to do what you most needed them to do? Whatever the reason, when you need help, and hopes get dashed, it hurts. Perhaps there was a desire or a dream tucked away in your heart—something you risked to share and ask for help with, but help never came, and so you tucked those hopes and dreams away, again.

Yet, cherished and chosen one, here is the greatest news of all! This God of yours—the One Who knows you so well—including those dreams, desires, and requests, says loud and clear, “I hear you! I hear the words of your spoken requests and the silent whispers of all that remains unsaid. I hear the songs that make your heart sing and the sound of yearning within. I hear it all!” And in the hearing, He assures you, as only love can do, that He is at work in your midst. And He can do anything—yes, anything at all!

Not only will He bring His best to pass in all the places you hoped for, but in far greater measure than your imagination could possibly imagine! Doing it all in above-and-beyond kinds of ways. Why? Because you matter. So does your heart and all those treasured dreams tucked up in it. You matter most of all to God, for You are His beloved one. Then surrounded in His extravagant love, is everything that matters to you too!

Let your praises rise to your Heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ His Son. For through the power of the Precious Holy Spirit, blessings beyond your deepest desires are set apart and made ready for you. And that includes your most unbelievable dreams—in the most unbelievable ways, coming true!

Prayer:

Jesus, I thank You that Your power is at work in my life, accomplishing even now, Your dreams and desires for me, and I know that includes my hopes and dreams too!

O, Glorious Lord, I praise You!

Thank You for Your extravagant and endless love, filling my heart, and my life in the most beautiful and profound ways.

Let it all be manifest in alignment with Your divine will and in accordance with the divine destiny I have in You.

In Christ’s Holy and Precious Name, I pray.
