The sermon centers on the transformative power of God at work within believers, drawing from Ephesians 3:20–21 to affirm that God's ability to accomplish far more than we can imagine is rooted not in our strength, faith, or effort, but in the resurrection and regenerating power of Christ active within us. It challenges the common assumptions that God's work is limited by our perceived weakness, small faith, or lack of visible progress, instead pointing to the eternal reality of Christ's victory over death and spiritual darkness. Through the lens of Paul's pastoral concern for the Ephesians, the message calls the church to shift focus from earthly discouragements to the unseen, ongoing work of God in sustaining His people and glorifying Himself in His people throughout history. The passage underscores that God's power is not measured by dramatic signs, but by His faithful, sustaining grace in the ordinary lives of believers, where He continues to write His glory in the church and in every generation. Outline: We fail to expect God's ongoing work. Truth: God is at work. 1) We assume that because our faith is small God will not act. Truth: Our faith is not the measure of what God will do. 2) We assume that because we are not able, he is not able. Truth: Our strength is not the measure of what God can do. 3) We assume our efforts explain our progress. Truth: God's power at work within us. (This is the explanation for our growth and vitality- past, present, and future.)
