If you just read the first part of this verse, it would immediately sound an alarm indicating arrogance: “I can do all things.” This was the spirit that attempted to build the tower of Babel. This was the downfall of men like Saul or the Egyptian Pharaoh. Many today infected by humanism and without any trust in God – make the same claim: “I can do all things.”
If your ability makes you proud, remember
Pride goes before destruction, a haughty spirit before a fall. Proverbs 16:18
The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” Psalm 14:1
Jesus said to them, “I watched Satan fall from heaven like lightning”. .” Luke 10:18
It is not “I can do all things.” It is, I can do all things through Christ! There is a huge difference. It is one thing for someone to say, “I can do all things.” It is quite different to confess, “I can do all things through Christ.”
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.2 Corinthians 12:9
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. .2 Psalm 73:26
He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Isaiah 40:29
So we can say with confidence, “The LORD is my helper, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me?” 2 Hebrews 13:6
