I wouldn't want to use glue on seams because it will affect the lay of the fabric when you press it to one side or try to press it open. I prefer to pin the seam join, approach it slowly and remove the pin just as the needle is ready to penetrate the fabric. You should never sew over a pin; nicks the needle and can mess up the throatplate when the needle strikes the pin.
