Zechariah 4:6
Zechariah 4:6
Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty.
Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord Almighty speaks to the source of strength and victory in the life of a believer. This verse reminds Christians that their ability to succeed, to overcome obstacles, and to fulfill God’s calling is not dependent on human strength or resources but on the power of the Holy Spirit. While might and power may be effective in the world, God’s kingdom operates differently. The Spirit empowers believers to live according to God’s will, to witness for Christ, and to carry out His work. This verse challenges believers to rely on the Holy Spirit rather than their own abilities. It reminds us that true victory is won through dependence on God, not through our efforts alone. By embracing the Spirit’s power, believers are equipped to accomplish the work God has set before them. This teaching encourages Christians to invite the Holy Spirit into their daily lives, to yield to His guidance, and to trust that He will empower them to do all things according to God’s will.
