Well, first of all, being self-sufficient means that he has no need within himself that has to be met outside of himself, that he is independent of his creation. Now, what does that do for me personally? It instills confidence. When I look in the mirror of God's word, I know I need saving. If God has to help me, if I have to help God save me, I'm in trouble because I know I can contribute nothing to my salvation but sin.
