What power does the devotee have?

definition
"The devotee's true power lies not in personal will, but in surrendering to the divine flow, allowing grace to guide the journey. In self-forgetfulness, the Vast carries you effortlessly through life’s marketplace."
According to Osho, the devotee’s power is not personal will but the strength of God accessed through surrender. By letting go of self-effort, the devotee opens the sail to divine winds, is never alone, and moves by grace. This self-forgetfulness brings support, peace even amid the marketplace, and an effortless path as the Vast carries him.
A devotee is strong because they stop trying to do it all alone and let God carry them, like a child calling and the mother coming.
