One of the unsearchable riches of Jesus Christ which believers enjoy is His ability to do far above what we ask or think. Most times when we face trails and temptations, we become anxious or afraid of how the situation might turn out. We may even think, plan, or act for God. This is a futile human effort because our God is beautiful for every situation.
I really want to assure you that God does beyond what we ask or think. Therefore we just need to approach His presence with freedom and boldness. God will surprise you in any problem you are facing now. What you should do in this light is only to ask in faith and what you asked for will be provided or given you beyond what you expect. Furthermore, when you seek for anything from the Lord Jesus Christ, you shall find or have it. In addition, when you knock, the door will be open unto you because Jesus Christ is very liberal.
(Matthew 7:7-10; Ephesians 3:8-21)
Apostle Paul’s prayers should be a guide as to what needs and desires to pray for. Of which is to be strengthened with power in their inner being. That Jesus Christ shall dwell in their hearts through faith. That they be rooted and established in love and also know the depth of the love of Jesus Christ.
Indeed, all of us need these prayers so that all the riches found in Christ Jesus to be our portion. Apostle Paul preached the unsearchable riches of Jesus Christ to the Gentiles. This mystery has been kept secret by God from the beginning. It is interesting to note however that this mystery that has been revealed was to display the wisdom of God through the church to principalities and powers in the heavenly places as seen in Ephesians 3:10
This plan of God came through Christ and we have access to it by our faith. Our faith in Christ also gives us boldness to approach God’s peace. In fact, I must tell you that the riches in Jesus Christ are unlimited. In Christ we have eternal life, good health, security, sanctification, indwelling of the Holy Spirit, promotion, peace, love, happiness, joy, greatness, mercy, wealth, wisdom, understanding, knowledge, etc.
You need to be part of Jesus Christ in order to enjoy these riches. He is holding out His hands, calling you to open your heart, so that He can come into your life.
