Zechariah 4:6 (ESV) 6 Then he 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 of hosts.
We see snap shots of life, our memory and sense are triggered by stimuli we often recognize as pleasant, past or present. I saw a photo recently that reminded me of a child hood trip where fish were caught, mountain streams were clear and cold and the images of mountain peaks called out to be conquered. These things can fill us to overflowing with joy for past experiences, and cause us to long for days gone by.
The Word of God to Zerubbabel is one of encouragement, we do not need to worry about how God will do the work, or how it was done in the past, we must have faith that He will accomplish what He has planned. He does not need the strength of men or the power of equipment, just His amazing Holy Spirit is enough. God is in the frame of advancing His kingdom, not the thoughts of men, the sole purpose for which I have been created is to Glorify Him.
Are you attempting eternity by your own strength, stop, we enter Heaven only by the Redemption of Jesus, The Christ, who's life was given as payment, for my sins and yours. He is that Spirit by which all men can see God.
Heavenly Father, in You all things work together for good, for those who trust in your Spirit to lead guide and direct us. Help us Lord to move in the areas You have called and to maintain the position of prayer and faith. Amen
