Gaining And Storing Spiritual Power

Eph. 6:10--- Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.

The spirit is light and love. The spirit of light and love is like water. The spirit of God is referred to in the Bible as living water. We lose spiritual power by not storing up the spirit when the spirit or the power of the spirit is available. Spiritual power is like a stream of water flowing through our life. When we do not construct a damn to hold back or store up the water or spiritual power, we will not have a resource from which to draw when we need the power. Much of our spiritual power goes unused. Our spiritual power goes unused because of our faulty beliefs, our doubts, our ignorance about the spirit, and the attack of satanic evil against us. Spiritual power may not appear according to the way we want the power to appear. Spiritual power may not appear at the times and places we want the power to appear. Spiritual power is the province of God, not the province of human beings. The spiritual power of light and love comes from God and is not created, generated, manufactured, fashioned, molded, or shaped by any human. The stream of God's living water flows through our hearts. We can open our heart and let the living water flow in or we can close our heart and the living water will seem not to exist. We can open our hearts and the living water of God's healing love pours into us. We can open our hearts and we can store up the power of the living water by being humble, giving, compassionate, forgiving, and counting our blessings.
