How do we know that Jesus empowers us in our mission?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus empowers His followers through the presence of the Holy Spirit, making their evangelistic efforts fruitful.

The assurance of Jesus' empowerment in our mission is deeply rooted in Scripture. In John 21, after a long night of unsuccessful fishing, the disciples are instructed by Jesus to cast their nets again, resulting in an overwhelming catch. This incident illustrates that while they may labor in vain, with Christ's command and presence, their efforts will be fruitful. Furthermore, Matthew 28:20 reassures us with the promise, 'Lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.' This reinforces the understanding that our success in catching men for the Kingdom is not dependent upon our abilities but rather upon Christ's power and direction.
