How do we know God's grace is sufficient in our weakness?
Answered in 1 source
We know God's grace is sufficient because in our weakness, His power is made perfect, providing strength when we cannot.
God’s grace is displayed most clearly in our weakness, as seen in 2 Corinthians 12:9, where Paul speaks of God saying, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' In times of distress and helplessness, like the one experienced by David in 1 Samuel 30, it is God's grace that becomes our anchor. When we reach the end of our capabilities and self-reliance fails, that's when we learn to depend profoundly on Christ and His redemptive work. This experience ultimately reveals that our strength was never adequate to begin with, and that reliance on God's unchanging nature provides the true foundation for our hope and encouragement.
