“But you need to meditate on the Word. You need to spend the time cultivating your spirit. You need to spend the time with God, doing some of these things that will grow you, so that when the glory turns up, or when you turn up in the glory, then your body does not get freaked out. Because your spirit man is the candle of the Lord (Proverbs 20:27).”
