"An acorn can grow into an oak tree, but it cannot become a rose bush. You will always be you — a growing, healthy you or a languishing you — but God did not create you to be anybody else. He pre-wired your temperament. He determined your natural gifts and talents. He made you to feel certain passions and desires. He planned your body and mind. Your uniqueness is God-designed." - John Ortberg

Quench Your Thirst Thursday ~ More Than Able
Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “How did I get here”? Maybe you’ve been weighed down by the past, overwhelmed by the present, or uncertain about the future. You’re not alone and you’re not without help or hope. The lyrics of the worship song “More Than Able” remind us of a powerful truth: God is more than able to do what we think is impossible.
“When did I start to forget all of the great things You did?”
We can all relate to seasons when our faith feels thin and our memories of God’s faithfulness grow dim. Psalm 103:2 says:
“Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all His benefits.”
(Psalm 103:2)
Sometimes we need to pause and remember how God has shown up before; how He provided when we lacked, comforted when we grieved, healed when we were broken, and saved when we were lost. He didn’t bring us this far to abandon us now.
“You’re not done with me yet”
That one line carries so much hope. God is not finished. Your current chapter isn’t the final one. His grace is still writing your story. The apostle Paul declared:
“Being confident of this very thing,
that He who has begun a good work in you
will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.”
(Philippians 1:6)
What you see now is not the full picture. God’s promises don’t expire, and His plans are still unfolding.
“You are more than able…”
Here’s where the song lifts our eyes. We’re not trusting in our own strength, intelligence, or strategies—we’re trusting in a God who is more than able.
“Now to Him who is able to do
exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think,
according to the power that works in us…”
(Ephesians 3:20)
This isn’t just a feel-good lyric; it’s truth. God doesn’t just meet expectations—He surpasses them. When we give Him room to work, we often find that what felt like the end is just the beginning.
“Who am I to deny what the Lord can do?”
The moment of surrender is when we stop limiting God with our doubts, our logic, or our timelines. God isn’t restricted by what we see. He can resurrect dreams, restore relationships, heal bodies, and transform lives. Who are we to deny what the Lord can do?
“Jesus said to him, ‘If you can believe,
all things are possible to him who believes.’”
(Mark 9:23)
Faith doesn’t mean we’ll always understand, but it means we’ll trust anyway. Because we can’t do it, but He can and He will.
If you’re feeling stuck or afraid today, let this be your encouragement: God is not done. He is more than able. Remember what He’s done, believe what He’s promised, and watch what He will do. Your greatest breakthrough could be just ahead because the One writing your story still holds the pen.
Let go of the doubt. Embrace the wonder. Trust the God who is always able. Let "More Than Able" become your anthem of faith. Speak it. Sing it. Believe it. Because with Jesus, anything is possible!!
Key Lyric:Anything is Possible! Who am I to deny what the Lord can do?
Scripture: “But Jesus looked at them and said to them, ‘With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’” (Matthew 19:26)
With God anything is possible!! Who are we to deny our Heavenly Father of everything He is capable of thing and put limits on Him?!?
Life is full of roadblocks that whisper "no way." But God doesn't just whisper. He declares. He says, "All things are possible." His voice cuts through fear and disappointment with the roar of assurance.
As you listen to "More Than Able," let it be a soundtrack to your breakthrough. The words aren’t just lyrics; they’re faith-filled truths anchored in Scripture. Whether you're believing for healing, provision, restoration, or direction, remember: you serve a God who is not limited by the natural. He is supernatural. Amen and Hallelujah!!!
He’s not asking you to figure it out. He’s asking you to trust. To believe that if He’s brought you this far, He’s more than able to take you the rest of the way.
Questions to Ponder:
What have I stopped praying for because it seemed impossible?
Am I trusting God with my limitations—or letting them define me?
How can I align my faith today with the truth that He is more than able?
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for being a God who is more than able. Forgive me for the times I’ve placed limits on what You can do in and through my life. Lord, today I surrender every doubt, fear, and impossibility to You. Stir up fresh faith in my heart. Let me dream again. Let me hope again. I believe You are the same yesterday, today, and forever.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
