Shakespeare applied the word to an oath. “”An oath of mickle might.”” This application is obsolete. We now use strength or force; as the strength or force of an oath or covenant.

With might and main, with the utmost strength or bodily exertion; a tautological phrase, as both words are from the same root, and mean the same thing.

Thank you, Father, for sending the spirit of might. And of counsel. And we also ask for You to send the spirit of humility. In Jesus’ Name, amen.
