How does God establish us in good works?

Answered in 1 source

God establishes believers in good works through His Spirit, enabling them to live righteously.

In 2 Thessalonians 2:17, Paul assures believers that God will establish them in every good word and work. This divine establishment is realized through the Holy Spirit’s work in the believer's life, which empowers them to live according to God's will. The Spirit cultivates a heart that desires good works, leading believers to act in faith and love. This aligns with Ephesians 2:10, which teaches that we are created in Christ Jesus for good works that God has prepared beforehand. Therefore, it is God working in us that enables us to fulfill the good works He calls us to.
