Zech 4:6 … Not by might, nor by power, but my spirit, saith the Lord of hosts.
Zerubbabel was given the responsibility of rebuilding the Temple in Jerusalem. As the work was being completed, the prophets encouraged Zerubbabel and told him of a time when spiritual apathy and foreign oppression would be overcome. Many believe that to succeed/survive in this world a person must be tough, strong, unbending, and harsh. But God says, "Not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit." The key words are "by my Spirit." All that man accomplishes or builds by his hands eventually falls. It’s only through God's Spirit that anything of eternal lasting value is accomplished (Hos 1:7).
Real strength isn’t found in a man’s hands, but in the feet of those who steps are led by the Lord’s Spirit… HSAY
