Zechariah 4:6

Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts.

Human power and human might did not establish the church of God, and neither can they destroy it. Not on the rock of human strength, but on Christ Jesus, the Rock of Ages, was the church founded, “and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.” Matthew 16:18. The presence of God gives stability to His cause. – {Prophets and Kings p. 595.3}

Acts 1:8

But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judæa, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. 

IT IS WHEN WE ARE ALONE WITH GOD THAT THE POWER OF THE HOLY WILL REST ON US INDIVIDUALLY, ONLY THEN WILL THE CORPORATE CHURCH BE BLESSED

Jeremiah 15:16-17

Thy words were found, and I did eat them; and thy word was unto me the joy and rejoicing of mine heart: for I am called by thy name, O LORD God of hosts. 17I sat not in the assembly of the mockers, nor rejoiced; I sat alone because of thy hand: for thou hast filled me with indignation. 

Revelation 1:9-10

I John, who also am your brother, and companion in tribulation, and in the kingdom and patience of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, for the word of God, and for the testimony of Jesus Christ. 10I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, 

Will my ministering brethren plead with God alone in secret prayer for His presence and His power? Dare not to preach another discourse until you know, by your own experience, what Christ is to you.  – {Testimonies to Ministers and Gospel Workers p. 154.2}

WHEN YOU HAVE BEEN ALONE WITH GOD AND ARE SPIRITUALLY RECHARGED, YOU WILL NOT STRUGGLE FOR THE APPLAUSE OF MAN, NOR EDGE YOURSELF INTO NOTICE. GOD WILL DRAW ALL MAN TO HIMSELF THROUGH YOU AND THOSE WHO LOVE GOD WILL GIVE YOU AN EAR!
