'It is...by my Spirit,' says the Lord.' Zechariah 4:6 NLT
Sometimes it feels like we don't have what it takes to do something for God. Or we feel that nobody is walking with us in our calling. It's easy to become discouraged and give up. But God never leaves us to face anything on our own.
Zerubbabel was called to rebuild the temple. It was a huge task, but God reassured him, 'It is not by force nor by strength, but by my Spirit' (Zechariah 4:6 NLT). We can't do everything on our own, we need to be dependent on God. When we don't include him in what we're doing, we could end up in a worse situation. Samson discovered this: 'He awoke from his sleep and thought, "I'll go out as before and shake myself free." But he did not know that the Lord had left him. Then the Philistines seized him' (Judges 16:20-21 NIV). God stepped aside and let Samson realise that his superhuman strength was not his, but given to him by the Lord. It's God's power, not ours, that makes the difference. God's 'power is made perfect in weakness' (2 Corinthians 12:9 NIV).
When we're feeling weak, we're in the best position for God to work in us and through us. We have to take that step of courage, trusting he'll equip us. When we rely on his strength rather than our own, we are empowered to do what he's calling us to.
So what now? Ask God to fill you with his strength in whatever you do. See what a difference it makes!
