Jesus did nothing on His own initiative and said nothing on my own initiative until He first consulted with the Father to get His direction. Jesus only did what the Father revealed to Him. He did nothing on His own authority but exactly what the Father instructed Him to do. (John 8:28-29) Jesus only acted to the extent that the Father authorized Him as guided by faith, what the Holy Spirit revealed to Him. It was always received from God and never initiated by Him.
Jesus makes it very clear; He stripped Himself of all privileges and outward expressions of divine equality by assuming the form of a servant. He became like men and was born a human being without sin. (Philippians 2:7) He did everything by first interfacing with the Father to get His direction and wishes as the Holy Spirit imparted faith to Him – God’s divine persuasion to know what He prefers. (1 John 5:4)
Jesus gave you an eternal truth saying, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, just as the Son can do nothing of Himself, but can do only what He sees the Father doing, and does it in the same way. So too, you are able to do anything of yourself, but only what by Christ living in you and directing you through faith. He persuades you by in birthing in you through the Holy Spirit what God guarantees the fulfillment.
