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,
Ver. 20. Exceeding abundantly] Gr. υπερ εκ περισσου, more than exceedingly or excessively. God hath not only a fulness of abundance, but of redundance; of plenty, but of bounty. He is often better to us than our prayers.
According to the power] The apostle begins his prayer with mention of God's fatherly mercy; he shuts it up with a description of his power. These two, God's might and God's mercy, are the Jachin and Boaz, the two main pillars of a Christian's faith, whereon it rests in prayer.
