ephesians 3:14-21

Spiritual power is love in your heart. you don't accomplish anything if there is not love. there is no effectiveness. sin affects your spiritual power. it's more like, sin affects your spiritual power because sin makes you self-focused and self-loving, and that's why you sin because it is for yourself. your spirit's nature is depleted with love. your heart is more concerned about yourself than others or about god's glory. that's why it affects your spiritual power. god always wants to fill us with his spirit, with his power, but when we sin we are forsaking his spiritual power because our hearts are not full of his love but full of love for ourselves. that's why immediate repentance is needed right after you sin. immediate, because god's love for you will never change in Jesus Christ. Go to repentance so you have hatred of sin. So you are filled with love...so you are full of his power again. Again and again. Don't sit there and mope in a puddle of guilt and self-pity. Hate sin and commit again and be filled with the love of Christ. your heart will be concerned with other people..a hatred of sin and a love for Christ and love for others. your heart will be filled with power again. To him who is able to do immeasurably more. more. god uses people whose hearts are willing to be used by god. pray for the power in you. the spirit's power is what you need for anything and everything you do
