Zechariah 4:6
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."
It is a good and godly thing to go hard given one keeps in mind it is God's Spirit who must move in order to achieve anything of eternal value. In the Lord our labors are not in vain, but outside Him they are... no matter how hard we're getting after it. No might or power of mankind can establish itself. It cannot secure a place in eternity. Nothing can span the gap. No earthly achievement can purchase eternal real estate. God's kingdom will be established by God or it won't be established at all. The faithful hands and hearts of His people employed in the building also have faithful lips which give all the credit to Him as they give all their effort for Him.
