Holy Spirit Power

Zechariah 4:6

The word of God is not by power or might,
Rather by the Holy Spirit in God's delight.
Might is a powerful source like a soldier,
As with a valiantly well trained aggressor;
Power is an ability that embraces success,
Achieving all your goals that you possess;
Power also comes from the wisdom inside,
That cleverly manipulates others in pride;
With being as children of God as are we,
For enabling the Holy Spirit to oversee;
When God is in control so is all His skill,
In ability and wisdom promoting goodwill;
In the Spirit we have tools of the trade,
Able to perform to what has to be made;
In the Spirit we can do all He commands,
For allowing the Spirit to use your hands;
Through the Lord all things are possible,
Making all of your work impressionable;
Even for myself I can not do it all alone,
You don't think I can rhyme on my own.
