The power of God is in His glory. Romans 6:4 tells us that it was the glory of the Father that raised Jesus from the dead!
Romans 6:4 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
What’s really cool is that in John 2:19 Jesus set Heaven’s alarm clock for this to happen when Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
This wasn’t just prophetic as we know the word prophetic. Jesus’ words went into the future and set the timer for Him to be raised from the dead by the Father’s glory!
Jesus was operating in His Father’s glory, the same glory He gave us in John 17:5,22, which is activated by the spoken Word! Wow! His Word amazes me! The fact that we too are supposed to operate in this same glory is even more mind blowing.
John 17:5 And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed.
John 17:22 The glory that you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one…
– So Jesus raised Himself from the dead by His own spoken prophetic word.
John 2:19 Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”
– The Holy Spirit raised Jesus from the dead.
Romans 8:11 If the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.
– And the glory of the Father raised Jesus from the dead!
Romans 6:4 We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life.
The THREE raised Jesus from the dead as ONE!
