You will abound in every good work

“And God is able to bless you abundantly, so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” (2 Cor. 9:8)

God is able!

We serve a God who is able to do the impossible (Luke 1:37). Scripture says He is “able to do far more abundantly than all that we ask or think” (Eph. 3:20). In this passage, He promises to bless us abundantly. Abundantly means generously, plentifully, and beyond measure. God’s blessings are never small or half-hearted—they are overflowing.

But why does He bless us so abundantly?

The verse at the top of the page gives the answer: “so that in all things at all times, having all that you need, you will abound in every good work.” God blesses us not just for our own benefit, but so we are equipped and empowered to carry out good works for His glory. You are His workmanship, created to shine as a model of good works (Eph. 2:10; Titus 2:7).

Therefore

Remember that God’s abundant blessings are given so you can overflow in every good work. Let His blessings flow through you to impact others for Christ.
