-------------------------------------------------
The word 'power' is sometimes translated 'ability', the Holy Spirit being also the Spirit of enabling. This is something about the operation of grace, too, because we can receive the Holy Spirit's power, but refuse to operate enough faith to walk in the enabling it brings us. This is why Paul wrote, 'I do not frustrate the grace of God', after he had written:
Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.
Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power [dunamis] of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith:
as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
