names of God: Spirit of Glory by ric gustafson


I Peter 4:14- ' for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you'


This name refers to God the Holy Spirit. The spirit of glory is the essence of self sacrifice. The Apostle Peter is reminding us that to be a follower of Christ is testing rather than comfort. Countless christians over the years have died for their faith and one question we must ponder. Where did they get their strength to endure what they went through?". The answer is the Spirit of Glory. God's Holy Spirit gives us the strength to make that sacrifice for our faith. The Spirit of Glory is there to constantly remind us that nothing short of glory awaits us in heaven. That is a comfort we can use to get through this difficult and sin filled life.
