Much More

There is an expression frequently used in the Bible when discussing Christ, our relationship to Him, and what He wants for us. That expression is “much more”. God has declared that the salvation He has provided is “much more” than enough to meet all our needs. We need to claim this promise, not question it.

Wherefore, if God so clothe the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is cast into the oven, shall he not "much more" clothe you, O ye of little faith? (Matthew 6:30)

Now unto him that is able to do "exceeding abundantly above" all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, (Ephesians 3:20)
[He is able and willing; to do above what we ask or even think].

Behold the fowls of the air, for they sow not, neither do they reap, nor gather into bans; yet your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are you not "much better" than they? (Matthew 6:26)

If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how "much more" shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him? (Matthew 7:11)

How can we even consider the possibility of our prayers not being answered?
