Philippians 4:19:
But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

God Almighty is the One Who bountifully supplies our every need. There is nothing that our God of abundance and power is not able to do for us according to His Word. The Scriptures abound with promises and examples of what our God of abundance and power is able to provide for His people. Let's consider some of these truths so that we can continue to build our trust in God and believe His Word.

Here are some verses where God is stating Who He is:

Exodus 15:26:
And said, If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon thee, which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I AM THE LORD THAT HEALETH THEE.

Leviticus 20:8:
And ye shall keep my statutes, and do them: I AM THE LORD WHICH SANCTIFY YOU.

Isaiah 41:10:
Fear thou not; for I AM WITH THEE: be not dismayed; for I AM THY GOD: I WILL STRENGTHEN THEE; YEA, I WILL HELP THEE; YEA, I WILL UPHOLD THEE WITH THE RIGHT HAND OF MY RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Isaiah 44:24:
Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I AM THE LORD THAT MAKETH ALL THINGS; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself.

Isaiah 48:17:
Thus saith the Lord, thy Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel; I AM THE LORD THY GOD WHICH TEACHETH THEE TO PROFIT, which leadeth thee by the way that thou shouldest go.

Jeremiah 1:19:
And they shall fight against thee; but they shall not prevail against thee; for I AM WITH THEE, saith the Lord, TO DELIVER THEE.

Jeremiah 9:24:
But let him that glorieth glory in this, that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I AM THE LORD WHICH EXERCISE LOVINGKINDNESS, JUDGMENT, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS, IN THE EARTH: for in these things I delight, saith the Lord.

Jeremiah 32:27:
Behold, I AM THE LORD, THE GOD OF ALL FLESH: IS THERE ANY THING TOO HARD FOR ME?

Malachi 3:6:
For I AM THE LORD, I CHANGE NOT....

Here are verses where spokesmen for God spoke of His abundance and power:

II Samuel 22:33:
God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

I Chronicles 29:11:
Thine, O Lord, is the greatness, and the power, and the glory, and the victory, and the majesty: for all that is in the heaven and in the earth is thine; thine is the kingdom, O Lord, and thou art exalted as head above all.

Psalms 28:7:
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.

Psalms 147:5:
Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.

Isaiah 40:28,29:
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

Jeremiah 32:17:
Ah Lord God! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee.

Ephesians 1:19:
And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who believe, according to the working of his mighty power.

God's will is for us to trust Him wholeheartedly because He loves us and wants us to thoroughly enjoy His storehouse of overflowing abundance. When we ask God to meet a need and we believe, we are absolutely going to receive far over and above all that we dare ask or think.

Ephesians 3:20:
Now unto him [God] that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us.

The God and Father of our lord and savior, Jesus Christ, is able. God has the power and the resources within Himself to do. And what is God able to do? Let's read it from The Amplified Bible:

Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams].

God is able to do superabundantly beyond, over and above all that we can ask or think. The word "ask" means to entreat or beg for ourselves. And "think" means to perceive within our minds.

God is able to do over and above what we would ask for ourselves or even perceive within our minds. God does not limit His answers to our ability to grasp the full meaning of what we are asking or thinking.

And how is God able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think? According to the power that works in us—the power that raised Christ from the dead, that placed him at the right hand of God, and that put all things under his feet [Ephesians 1:20-22].

This is our God of abundance and power; He is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think. And He infuses us, as born-again believers, with magnificent power, enabling us to manifest His sufficiency in every aspect of our lives!
