One or more of the following possibilities:

Defective power source
Defective Lightning cable
Dirt in the Lightning port on the bottom of the phone; carefully clean it with a non-metal tool such as a toothpick
If charging it wirelessly, your case is too thick
You used a really cheap charging cable that damaged the charging circuit in your phone

And posting the same question 3 times in 3 minutes won’t help solving the problem, and may annoy the other users in this forum that provide user-to-user tech support.
