Empower

By
Nathanael Sommers

Have you ever felt inadequate when it comes to Christian discipleship—whether as a parent, mentor, or friend? The fear of not being “good enough” to invest in others can feel overwhelming. But what if God has already given you everything you need to disciple and empower others? Through the Holy Spirit, you are strengthened from within to step into spiritual growth, encourage others, and lead with faith and confidence.

The Bible shows us this truth through the relationship between Paul and Timothy. Paul didn’t wait until Timothy was “ready”—he invited him to walk alongside him, learning and growing together. Jesus also made a powerful promise in John 14: those who believe in Him will do even greater works because of the Holy Spirit’s presence. Whether in leadership, relationships, parenting in faith, or simply encouraging those around you, God has already empowered you. You are equipped, not just to grow in your own faith but to help others flourish in theirs.
