"Immeasurably more—now and forever! In this age, God exceeds our expectations; in the age to come, abundantly more. Glory in the church throughout all generations—this spans ages, dispensations, eternity. What begins now overflows forever." — Warren Wiersbe. Dispensational: eternal abundance.
"In Christ Jesus our Lord—all abundance is Christological. The power at work is resurrection power; the glory is Christ's glory. We imagine salvation; God gives Christ Himself, immeasurably more. He is the fullness beyond our asking." — Karl Barth. Christocentric: Christ as fullness.
"The disinherited imagine survival; God gives flourishing. We ask for endurance; He gives victory. The oppressed cannot imagine full liberation; God does immeasurably more. The power at work has brought us this far; it will take us further than we dream." — Howard Thurman.
"True faith—the faith through which grace saves—bears fruit. It creates a community of transformed people living differently. We are saved by grace, not works; but saving grace always produces the works of love, peace, and mutual aid." — Menno Simons.
"The poor imagine bread; God gives banquet. They ask for justice; He gives kingdom. Liberation exceeds revolution—immeasurably more. The power at work among base communities accomplishes beyond their dreams. God's abundance includes and exceeds our justice work." — Gustavo Gutiérrez.
Amazing grace! You can't earn it, buy it, or deserve it—you can only RECEIVE it! Open your heart right now and let grace flood in! The same grace that saved you empowers you. Grace isn't just for salvation; it's for LIVING!" — David Wilkerson.
"Our mission strategies are too small! God does immeasurably more than we plan, more than we expect, more than we imagine possible. The power at work in mission exceeds our programs. Expect God to surprise; He is doing more than we know." — Lesslie Newbigin.
"The POWER at work within you is RESURRECTION POWER! The same Spirit that raised Christ! Ask for healing; expect MIRACLES! Dream of breakthrough; receive REVIVAL! God is the God of IMMEASURABLY MORE! There is ALWAYS more in His presence!" — Bill Johnson.
"Grace means there is nothing we can do to make God love us more, and nothing we can do to make God love us less. It is gift—pure, unearned, undeserved. We cannot boast because we contributed nothing. We can only...
"God can do EXCEEDINGLY, ABUNDANTLY, ABOVE all you ask or think! Your biggest prayer is TOO SMALL! Your wildest dream is TOO TAME! The POWER at work in you is SUPERNATURAL! Expect MORE! Believe for MORE! God is the God of OVERFLOW!" — T.D.
"This is eternal security: nothing in all creation—not tribulation, not antichrist, not the wrath to come—can separate believers from Christ's love. We are sealed until redemption's day. The love that chose us before time will hold us through time into eternity." — Charles Ryrie.
