Without God we can do nothing

Proverbs 16:3 “Commit[a] your works to the Lord, And your thoughts will be established.”
In this world, we always think that we can do everything with our strength and power, but let me tell you that you cannot do anything with your own strength. Sometimes we show our power, strength, knowledge and skills, but you should know that despite having all that, you cannot do it on your own and that’s why Jesus said “without me you can do nothing”.
The way you wake up in the morning, the way you talk and walk, it’s His strength that enables you to do that. Yes, you can say that you can, but let me tell you, in my experience of knowing God, man cannot do anything unless God has enabled him to do it. Sometimes we think we can but you have to know that without His permission you cannot get up in the morning. When you walk, eat, breathe, don’t say it’s by your own strength, no! But it is only by His strength.
Whatever you do under the sun if you want it to be accomplished you should know that without God you can’t do anything, it doesn’t matter how much money you have to accomplish that thing but without God you can’t. When you eat and get satisfied, don’t be proud, remember your God.
