He's Able - Deitrick Haddon
Meaning & Inspiration
Deitrick Haddon’s "He’s Able," released in 2007 as part of the album *Together In Worship*, stands as a powerful testament to unwavering faith in God's capacity to overcome any circumstance. This song doesn't just offer a melody; it delivers a profound theological message rooted in the understanding that God’s power is not limited by human limitations or perceived impossibilities. The core of the song’s narrative is the comforting assurance that no matter what challenges one faces, God is present and capable of intervening. This echoes the promise found in Jeremiah 32:17, where the prophet exclaims, "Ah, Sovereign LORD, you have made the heavens and the earth by your great strength and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for you." Haddon’s delivery imbues the lyrics with a conviction that resonates with anyone who has ever felt overwhelmed by life’s trials.
The message of "He's Able" centers on the divine omnipotence and faithfulness of God, a theme woven throughout Scripture. It speaks to the core Christian belief that God’s power is not subject to the same constraints as human power. When Haddon sings of God’s ability, he is drawing from a wellspring of biblical truth. Consider the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who faced a fiery furnace, yet declared their trust in God’s ability to deliver them, even if He chose not to (Daniel 3:17-18). Their faith was not in a guaranteed outcome, but in God’s inherent character and power. Similarly, the song encourages listeners to place their trust not in their own strength, but in God’s. This aligns with Philippians 4:13, which famously states, "I can do all this through him who gives me strength." The song’s essence is a vibrant proclamation of this very principle: that through Christ, believers are empowered and that God’s ability is the ultimate resource. It’s a reminder of God’s promise in Isaiah 41:10: “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” The persistent affirmation of God’s ability serves as an encouragement to persevere in prayer and to believe in the possibility of divine intervention, even when circumstances seem dire, drawing strength from the knowledge that God’s faithfulness is eternal and His power is limitless.
