This is quite what I said, your cup of lake water : all the water like Hand of God : God. You can do whatever you want with that water, you can hydrate a whole city, everybody would get only some nano- litre of your cup (depending on the population count) though. It's the same thing with the Hands of God. They can unleash the power of God for a short amount of time, probably not enough to create an universe, but still. Also, what is even "power" in this context ? Raw power (energy blasts) ? Could you use a Hand of God to give yourself the ability to play guitar (like Chuck did) ? All of these things lie in "God's power " so it is very well reasonable to think it refers to the full extent of his abilities. Means, you could use a hand of God to give yourself the ability to play guitar. But you can't use it again to learn french or something. If raw power would only refer to power in the sense of destroying things, than your lake- cup analogy wouldn't apply.
