‘But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound.’
Romans 5:20 KJV
Here is an expression used throughout Scripture to describe God’s provision for us: ‘much more’. It assures us there is no need we will ever face that can’t be met through His abundant resources. Our tendency is to approach our needs with an attitude of ‘much less’. It assumes that God is unable or unwilling to meet them. No, God wants us to adopt a ‘much more’ attitude. Much less is the language of visible things; it allows circumstances and lack to govern our lives. Much more is the language of unseen things; it invites us to live in the assurance of God’s abundance.
There is an inspiring illustration of this principle in 2 Chronicles 32. The Assyrian King Sennacherib’s forces were threatening Israel with annihilation. After he told them to look around and see what he had done to the people of other lands, he added, ‘How much less shall your God deliver you out of mine hand?’ (v. 15 KJV). But instead, King Hezekiah fixed his eye of faith on God’s resources and encouraged the Israelites: ‘Be not afraid…for the king of Assyria, nor for all the [visible] multitude that is with him: for there be more [invisible] with us than with him: with him is an arm of flesh; but with us is the Lord our God’ (vv. 7-8 KJV).
Although the Assyrians had a vastly superior army, verse eight says God’s people ‘rested themselves’ (stopped worrying), believing the hand of God was much more effective than the arm of the flesh! And it’s time you developed a ‘much more’ mentality in your life because our God is ‘able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think’ (Ephesians 3:20 KJV).
