If you are weak it indicates that you aren’t in fellowship with the Holy Spirit who dwells in you. I am not saying your weakness is an indication that the Holy Spirit isn’t working in you. Nay, for the Holy Spirit is working, but the importance lies in your response. Do you work with Him? Do you use this power or not? If the seed of wheat is the power of life, and this power becomes apparent if the seed finds the right conditions for growth. If it finds the right conditions of water, earth, warmth and light, it will sprout, otherwise it’s innate life remains inoperative, not functioning. How many are those who have inoperative power? The power of the Spirit in them doesn’t function because they don’t use it because they’ve grieved the Spirit who is in them.
