In II Corinthians 12, verse 9, I want you to look at the word sufficient. The grace of Jesus, the love of our God, and the communion with the Holy Spirit are sufficient for me and for you as a believer. His grace is unmerited despite human shortcomings; his grace is a blessing, a gift to the world in the form of forgiveness, strength, supernatural power, and all sufficiency. In this verse, he talks about sufficiency. He is more than enough, and you are also more than enough in him. He says my loving kindness and mercy are available regardless of the situation you are in. He has met all your needs. You are complete in Him, God says my power is being perfected and made available and known just to show you how effective I am even in your weakness. When you are weak, I am strong, and you can draw your strength from knowing me and speaking my name, Jesus Christ.
Sufficient is a powerful word that means to impact you in a new change or behavior, a word that describes completeness, but not just a completeness in you, but a supernatural, divine completeness. He is your resource in times of trouble. The word sufficient goes beyond your own limited thinking, and it reaches to a limitless God outside of the natural into the supernatural realm. God says it’s time to step outside of your natural thinking and respond to the supernatural mind of God.
A great analogy would be to step out of the boat into the water, not sure if you would fail, but knowing that God would catch you in your failures, God would pull you out of the deep and rescue you & give you the ability to walk on water.
Let Him be sufficient in all you do.
