OUR SUFFICIENCY IS OF GOD
Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God— 2 Corinthians 3:5
In your walk with God always see the sufficiency of God in you. Don’t listen to thoughts of inadequacy from your flesh. The opening scripture lets us know that our sufficiency is of or from God. The Word sufficiency comes from a Greek word hikanotēs which means ability. God has made available to us His ability for accomplishing His purpose. With His ability, failure and mediocrity are eliminated. The question is how much of that divine ability are you using or taking advantage of in your life? Ephesians 3:20 declares, “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”. This shows us the extent of God’s power we see is dependent on how much power is working in us. It begins with recognition of that power or ability within.
Acts 1:8 (AMPC) states about this ability: “But you shall receive power (ability, efficiency, and might) when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you shall be My witnesses in Jerusalem and all Judea and Samaria and to the ends (the very bounds) of the earth”. This is what the Holy Spirit brought in your life when you received Him. He brings you the ability, efficiency and might to accomplish great exploits in this life. Don’t think you will do great things just by your experience and academic qualification. Always see His ability at work in you and declare like Paul in Philippians 4:13: “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me”.
