I believe this is a message to us from God, written from His perspective – Sherri ​

Ephesians 3:20 ESV “Not wo Him who is able to do far more abundantly than all we ask or think, according to the power at work within us,”
  
“According to the power at work within us” is key here.
  
Do you feel powerless? You have the power of God Himself in you if you believe and receive it through Jesus Christ. Think about that for a moment. The power that raised Jesus from the dead lives inside of you (Romans 8:11).

I created you in My image (Genesis 1:26) and I am a great creator (Genesis 1). I have told you that you will do greater things than Jesus (John 14:12).
 
Do you believe Me?
  
Why, you ask, do we not experience this power? Why do we not experience our prayers being answered? Here are 3 clues, none of which will surprise you:

1. James 4:2-3 You don’t ask, or you ask for worldly things.
2. Hebrews 4:16 I tell you to approach the throne with confidence.
3. Matthew 22:36-40 My greatest command is to love Me, yourself, and your neighbor.

  
Look at your life honestly from this perspective and check in on these 3 things. Are you doing them? The only way it is possible for you to do these things is to do them through My  Holy Spirit living in you so if you are - it is due to the Holy Spirit and if not - it is due to needing more of the Holy Spirit. So, ask for the Holy Spirit to fill you and remove anything that no longer fits within you and then let the Holy Spirit work.
 
 If, when you do this assessment, you see that you do the three things listed above, then you are filled with the Holy Spirit and ask for what you want and you will receive it! Exercise the power given to you. Know that more of the Holy Spirit is always available to you.
 
Prayer:
Dear Lord, please send more of the Holy Spirit, please send more of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
