I Am Able

“Am I enough?”
This is the boggle in many heads, hearts, and minds. The world has evolved into a situation that measures worth by strength, status, and self-made success. The decibel (dB) of doubt and fear today is about 200 loud, consuming, and deafening. Yet, in about 15 decibels, God thunders in a still small voice:
You are able, because I who powdered you by My breath and who lives in you— I am able.
He, the God who can do anything, is able. With reference to the forty-second chapter and the second verse of the Book of Job, you might be in the ashes of minuses or losses, stripped of what is of worth to you, but the boundless reach of God is the greatest discovery, new every day in your head and heart, to be convinced that no dream is too dead, no door is too sealed, no diagnosis is too final. If God wills it, it is possible and already in motion.
“I am able” is beyond imagination, yet iconically seated in the third chapter, twentieth and twenty-first verses of the Book of Ephesians. God is calling you to His publicity of “Watch Me top that.”
He is present in the promotion you are afraid to claim, the healing you doubt is yours, the prodigal you have given up on, and the next level that seems to shift away the moment you get close. His power working in you meets the need and shatters the dome of your imagination, if and only if your breakthrough is not about you. It must be the billboard that points the world to Him.
God’s ability defies nature in every radius. According to the eleventh chapter and twenty-fourth verse of the Book of Romans, grafting a wild branch into a cultivated tree defies botany. So does restoring a rebel heart defy logic. The addiction grafted in your story, the relationship severed beyond repair, yet Apostle Paul says what seems impossible to you is child’s play to God.
God’s specialty is reattaching what was cut off and blessing it to bear fruit again.
Coming to the point of quantum conviction in God’s ability is your fireproof faith. According to the third chapter and seventeenth verse of the Book of Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego did not deny the fire, they declared the God who walks in it.
Your fire might be cancer, war, bankruptcy, betrayal, or loss, yet the same God who turned King Nebuchadnezzar’s threat into a worship service is able to pull you through unscorched. He will make the situation the stage where neighbors and nations see His glory.
When you leap into the truth of the ability of God, you will know He is the Unchangeable One. Politicians shift, economies crash, doctors shrug, still God’s verdict stands. According to the forty-third chapter and thirteenth verse of the Book of Isaiah, the promise spoken over you in the womb is still signed in Blood at the Cross—no cancellation, no revision, no appeal.
The Lord says,
Small and weak as you are, Name, do not be afraid; I will help you. I, the holy God of Israel, am the one who saves you.
Are you feeling worn today? God calls you by a new name: redeemed, helped, Mine. The same mouth that spoke the universe and galaxies into being now speaks over your frailty. In your weakness and aging, He has got you. He will not abandon you. He will restore you in strength and make you greater than ever.
According to Psalm 71:18, 20–21, every “but” amplifies God’s power. Do not let your wrinkles silence your worship, praise, or thanksgiving to Him. God is not done with you. At the spot of your biological clock wherever you are, He is loading your latter years with testimonies that will make angels, this generation, and the next drop their jaws.
When you come to the ability of God, you are convinced that God is the King no one can oppose. According to 2 Chronicles 20:6, if you face an army too big to count, too vast to defeat or conquer, let your battle plan be worship.
When the Lord Almighty stands, every knee bows and every tongue confesses His Lordship.
The Lord says,
I will gain honor by my victory over the king, his army, his chariots, and his drivers. When I defeat them, the Egyptians will know that I am the Lord.
So, “Don’t be afraid! Stand your ground, and you will see what the Lord will do to save you today; you will never see these doubts and fears again. The Lord will fight for you, and all you have to do is keep still.”
Give God everything: your calling, your family, your friends, every human being, your fragile heart…, for nothing entrusted to God can be snatched away. God’s Spirit seals it, guards it, guides it, and guarantees its delivery on the Day you see Jesus face to face.
Know it now and forever: He is your perpetual Intercessor, who is able, now and always, in all ways, to save those who come to God through Him. Jesus is not a seasonal Savior; He lives to intercede so that you may be victorious and see tomorrow. This moment, your name is on His lips in the throne room. The prayer you cannot finish, He is already praying perfectly.
And for these evidences, I am sure that you are able, not because you are strong or powerful, but because the All-Powerful and Mighty God has taken up residence in you. Preserve His dwelling with prayer, worship, thanksgiving, and forgiveness.
You are able because the Unchangeable One has spoken over your past, today, and future. You are able because the Resurrection King is praying through you.
So I invite you now to step into faith with conviction that you are God’s own. Speak to the mountain. Lay hands on the sick. Raise the dead. Forgive the unforgivable. Dream the ridiculous.
Because the God who spoke light into darkness spoke you into being by His desire, and He is still speaking over you. He is able—and through you, the world will know it.
To Him be glory in the Church and in Christ Jesus forever. Amen.
If you have read this and your heart feels stirred, it is because God is calling you to Himself. He wants to live in you through His Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.
Pray with me now:
Heavenly Father,
I come to You today with an open heart.
I believe that You are the Almighty God, able to save, heal, and restore.
I believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son, who died for my sins and rose again on the third day.
Today, I confess Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior.
Forgive me of all my sins, wash me clean by Your blood, and fill me with Your Holy Spirit.
From this moment, I surrender my life to You.
Use me as Your vessel, empower me by Your Spirit, and teach me to live by Your Word.
Thank You, Father, for saving me. I am Yours, and You are mine.
In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
A Very Important Step After Salvation
It is necessary and compulsory that you get planted in a Bible-believing Church.
Get grafted into the Church’s Sunday School, Foundation or Discipleship Bible School, Sunday Services or Masses, and Weekday Programs.
Growth in faith requires fellowship, learning, and spiritual covering.
In the Church, the Word of God will strengthen you, the Holy Spirit will nurture you, and fellow believers will walk with you in encouragement and accountability.
Do not walk alone.
The Church is God’s garden, clinic, dining, classroom where your faith takes root; God’s grace grows you from being saved to being sent, and from new birth to full bloom in purpose; and your destiny blossoms.
You are now a new creation in Christ.
The God who is able now dwells within you — speaking, guiding, empowering, and shaping your life into testimony.
Walk boldly, for the I AM who called you is ABLE.
