# 2 Corinthians 12:9 and Sanctification **2 Corinthians 12:9** states: "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 of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me" (ESV). This verse teaches that sanctification progresses not through human strength but through dependence on God's grace. As believers embrace their weaknesses and rely on Christ's power rather than their own abilities, they experience spiritual growth and transformation, demonstrating that holiness is ultimately God's work in us rather than our achievement.
