You might have heard a teaching about Christians
becoming too “salty” and turning into a “dead sea' (we
are called to be salt and light). The dead sea is too
salty because the river Jordan flows into it but
nothing flows out, the only way water can escape is
through evaporation and the salt concentration goes up
and up until nothing can live in it, hence the name
“dead sea”. There is another Godly principal similar
to this in the behavior of electricity. If you take a
AA battery and a wire and touch the – end of the
battery with the wire (the end that electrons will
flow out of, electrons have a - charge) nothing will
happen, however if you take the wire and touch the –
end with one end and the + end with the other this
completes the circuit and electricity will start to
flow and the flow can power something like a light
bulb..
In a similar fashion to the dead sea becoming dead due
from water flowing into it but not out at the same
time, and like the battery, if God's power is flowing
into us but not out at the same time then this is a
spiritual “short-circuit” and it stops the flow of
God's power.

Something else related to this that came to me: Just
like a Christian becoming a “dead sea” if they become
too salty, a rechargeable battery can be overcharged and
lead to decreased capability or battery failure.
