Why is the sufficiency of God important for ministers?

Answered in 1 source

The sufficiency of God underscores that ministers can do nothing on their own; their ability comes wholly from God.

In 2 Corinthians 3:5, Paul states, 'not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think anything as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God.' This profound truth serves as a foundation for any effective ministry. It illustrates that true ability and effectiveness come from the Lord, emphasizing that ministry is not reliant on human strength or skill but sustained by divine empowerment. This dependency fosters humility and ensures that all glory goes to God, as ministers are merely instruments in His hands.
