Not by might nor by power!
Zechariah 4:6
Then He answered and spake to me saying, This is the word of the Lord unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, saith Lord of hosts.

The phrase “Not by might nor by power” means you cannot resolve the challenge just by using your human abilities. Only by the supernatural power of God can you ( but by my Spirit) overcome or have victory over your circumstances as the verse above says.

The bible also says in Matthew 17:21 that

….. this cannot go away by prayer alone but by prayer and fasting. ( paraphrased)

Meaning, you can activate the power of God in your situation by prayer and fasting.

Dear student, worker and ambassador of Christ, the challenges and obstacles you encounter

– In your studies like not being able to remember what you study or not having the wisdom to use what you have learnt wisely to answer exam questions
– In your career like not being able to adjust well to changes in the use of technology or changes in the procedure to perform certain assignments
– In your ministry like not being able to change your style of presenting the message of salvation to be able to reach the younger generation

Can be resolved by activating the power of the Holy Spirit in your life through prayer and fasting.

Remember, also to trust in God and do what is right at all times.
God be with you

Suggestions for success

1. Take some time to reflect over your activities in the past week
2. Identify the areas where you need help and set a day aside in the coming week to fast and pray.

Song for meditation

Let this song be your confession and prayer

It is not by might, not by power
But by my Spirit saith the Lord
This mountain shall be removed
This mountain shall be removed
This mountain shall be removed
By my Spirit saith the Lord.
Amen
