SCRIPTURE PASSAGE:
ZECHARIAH 4:6 NIV
So he (the angel) said to me,
"This is the word of the LORD to Zerubbabel:
NOT BY MIGHT NOR BY POWER BUT BY MY SPIRIT,"
says the LORD Almighty.
OBSERVATIONS:
The LORD is telling his people to rebuild the temple.
Earlier, God repeatedly tells the leaders to be STRONG.
Perhaps they were low in resources,
and high in enemies?
APPLICATION:
God is saying:
I don't want you to do this alone.
Use my power, my strength!
Let me step in and help you.
PRAYER:
Heavenly Father,
when I come against a new challenge or overwhelming odds, help me to remember not to give up or "duke it out" on my own. May I be humble enough to rely on YOUR strength because you care for me and want to see me SUCCEED! In Jesus' name I ask these things,
AMEN.
