Anything created or made is expected to function in the capacity of its
model, God created man in his
own image, man is expected to function like God, the expectation of the creation is to see the sons of God function like the creator in this age and time but How can we achieve all that as being set before us, we have to learn from our model, God didnt start the creation of the earth till the spirit (holy spirit) hovered the waters, JESUS didn't start his ministry until the Dove (holy spirit) rested on his head, in fact Acts 10:38 says how God anointed Jesus with the holy ghost and Power and he went around doing good, Stephen was full of the spirit (holy spirit) he functioned like God, he even saw the heavens open while he was about to die
We need His spirit to function like him, we need His spirit to attain that height, we need His spirit.
Some might say, immediately I gave my life to Christ, I had the spirit, that's true but he was given to us at a measure, it's our relationship with him that increases the measure of him in us, John said in the gospel of John I decrease that he might increase, the more your spirit dies, the more His spirit increases.
We are expected to function like God but we are not required to take hold of his glory, we are to give him back his glory, it's when we give him his glory that he gives us our cut, God doesn't cheat, so just give it to him, the Bible says he is the rewarder of those that diligently seek him, so u don't need to withhold is glory.
When you find yourself surrounded with unpleasant choices, calm down and choose God because the time is coming when pleasant choices will be searching for you
