An angel flies above two of Jehovah’s Witnesses as they approach a house where a man is praying Working Together With God—A Cause for Rejoicing

[Roberto Flores]

Do you notice the argument from Watchtower

¹⁴ Preaching also strengthens our conviction that God’s spirit is with us. Consider: Suppose you were offered a job to distribute nutritious bread to people in your community. You would neither be paid for your work nor be reimbursed for your expenses. What is more, you would soon discover that most people did not want the bread and that some would even hate you for distributing it. How long would you continue to work at such a job? Feeling disheartened by the people’s negative response, you would probably not have the inner strength to  continue for very long. Yet, many of us have persevered in the ministry year after year at our own expense and despite the scorn and ridicule of thankless ones. Does that not give evidence that God’s spirit is at work in us?

not by our own strength do we persevere....

so that the power beyond what is normal may be God’s and not from us.
