How do we know God's grace is sufficient for our weaknesses?

Answered in 5 sources

God's grace is sufficient for our weaknesses, as exemplified by His calling of Moses, who doubted his own abilities.

In the account of Moses' calling, we witness his profound sense of inadequacy, as he repeatedly expressed doubts about his ability to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. He questioned, 'Who am I?' and worried that the Israelites would not believe him. Yet, God reassured him that His presence would be with Moses and that His power would make up for Moses' shortcomings. The emphasis here is that God's grace is not just a concept but a practical force that equips and empowers those whom He calls. Moses' ability to perform miracles was not from his own strength but through the grace of God working in him. This encapsulates the Reformed understanding that human effort is insufficient; rather, it is solely by God's grace that believers are transformed and equipped for service.
