How do we know God can use ordinary people for His purposes?

Answered in 1 source

God often uses ordinary individuals, as seen in the lives of Moses and David, to accomplish His extraordinary purposes.

The narrative of Moses illustrates how God elevates ordinary individuals to fulfill His divine plans. Moses, a man with a troubled past, initially doubted his ability to face Pharaoh, feeling inadequate for the task. Yet, God’s choice of him and the assurance of His presence demonstrate that He delights in using the seemingly unworthy to achieve His purposes. Similarly, David, a shepherd boy, was chosen to defeat Goliath and eventually become king. These examples remind us that our perceived limitations do not restrict God’s ability to work through us. Instead, it showcases His power and grace, as He equips the called and utilizes our unique experiences for His glory.
