Jesus said we are to share in the glory, but that brought me to a question, what is the glory exactly?? Well that is an easy one, Moses asked God to see his glory pass before him, and then we realized that the glory of God was the essence of who God was, - Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth” (Exodus 34:6) ....... sharing in the glory of God is sharing in his nature of love.... being merciful and full of commpassion, gracious, patient, kindness, goodness, truth..... then i went further, and i read that when the woman with an issue of blood followed Jesus and touched the him of His garment, his VIRTUE shot out.... she was healed from his virtue, his very goodness.... there is power in virtue, virtue is defined as 1 a : conformity to a standard of right.. It is this standard of righteousness that we are all to be conformed to by his Spirit, and this is the power of sharing in the glory of God. The Spirit that works in us. Not to simply to pray for ourselves to be blessed, but that we might ourselves become a blessing. That is the power.... when we lose our own will and become a part of his. That's why the fruit of the Spirit is so powerful, it is the very nature of God's love in us. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. 'Fruit' is used to mean 'end product' or 'harvest', and hence the passage describes what the writer expects to observe in someone in whom the Holy Spirit has been working.




God didn't let any of samuel's wors fall to the ground, imagine us, imagine if none of our words fall to the ground, would u want that? most people are not even aware of the things they speak into their life everyday... "child, u so crazy" "no, i cant do that". would we really want none of our words to fall to the ground?... but imagine the flip side of that, if we only spoke life, blessing and curses come out of the same mouth but this should not be so.... this is a little secret, the reason y God did's let any of samuels words fall to the ground is because he only spoke the words of God.... and God's word is forever and can not fail.... God trusted samuel to speak his word.we have that same power, if we constantly spoke the word of God then none of our words would fall to the ground, that is because they are not just our words, and God's words can never fail... it's a good thing that we know what God's intentions are for us
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future... so wouldnt u want to speak that over your life?
