God is your sufficiency.


“Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God” 
2 Corinthians 3:5(KJV).

From our opening scripture, we see that Paul was able to accomplish all that he did, and was a successful leader, not because he was depending on his own competence, but because he was depending on the ability that comes from God alone.

As a leader in God's house, trust in God's ability to enable you to produce the right results because you have His ability at work in you. The Apostle Paul having this understanding wrote in Philippians 4:13, “I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” In other words, Christ is the one that empowers and enables us to do all that He has called us to do.

This is why Philippians 2:13 says, “For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.”  This means that God is active, efficient and mighty in you, to do all that He has called you to do, bringing Him satisfaction and delight. Praise God.

So, just like the Lord said to Gideon in Judges 6:14, I am saying to you today, “… Go in this thy might …” and “…be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.” Ephesians 6:10(KJV).

CONFESSION
I can do all things through Christ that strengthens me. I declare that God is at work in me both to will and to do of His good pleasure. For I am strengthened with might according to the riches of God's glory by God's Spirit in my inner man. Amen.

For further study read:
John 15:4-5, 2 Corinthians 12:9, 2 Corinthians 3:5-6,
1 Corinthians 15:10.

DOING THE WORD
Depend on God's ability in you to produce the right results. Also, spend some time searching the scriptures to discover the amplitude of your potential in God.
