Zechariah 4:6b (NIV) “…Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,” says the Lord Almighty.
What is the means which God uses in the building of His temple, the Body of Christ? NOT BY MIGHT: sheer numbers of corporate effort (Judges 7:2-7). NOT BY POWER: the application of sheer human energy. BUT BY MY SPIRIT: only through the supernatural dynamic of the Holy Spirit. How much effort do we put into human strategies when a divine strategy is necessary? Do we fill ourselves with information alone, or do we seek Holy Spirit empowerment to see Holy Spirit effectiveness? Where is your power rooted? Grow your roots deeply into God’s Word and the Holy Spirit’s presence.
