God's Glory

Exodus  33:18  And he said, I beseech thee, shew me thy glory.

Praise the Lord!!

Today we will meditate upon glory of God.

Glory means giving highest honour to any person. God's Glory can be seen, hence Moses wanted to see God's Glory and pleaded God to show His Glory.

God says He will not share his Glory with anyone.(Isaiah  42:8).

Jeremiah pleaded people to give Glory to God.(Jeremiah  13:16 ) for God is pleased when his children Glorify Him.

Why should we give God Glory?
We should glorify God because
1. He is the LORD who exercise lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness, in the earth (Jeremiah 9:24)
2. He is the provider for all being.
3. He is all knowing and omnipresent in your situations.
4. He knows all the temptations and trials you are going through.
5. He is a loving father.
6. He protects you from every dangers surrounding your life.
7. He keeps your feet from stumbling in the darkness.

Isaiah  42:12  Let them give glory unto the LORD, and declare his praise in the islands.  

When we glorify God knowingly; He gives his glory to his children.

Isaiah  60:1  Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. 

What does the glory of God do for you?
1. His glory covers your nakedness. (Genesis 2:25)
2. His glory will present you blameless to his throne.(1 Peter 1:7)
3. His glory will work in your tribulations. (Ephesians 3:13)
4. His glory will supply all your needs. ( Philippians 4:19)
5. His glory will make you partaker to Lord's suffering. (1 Peter 4:13)

2 Thessalonians  2:14  Whereunto he called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Yes we can obtain his glory through Jesus Christ.
If you repent for your sins, accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour, lead a life pleasing to God. Take baptism and seek God daily. He will give his glory to you and present you blameless before his throne.

Revelation  21:23  And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.

Yes Saints!! If you want to be a citizen of that country. Then glorify God everyday. Know that he is coming soon for you. Hold on to your faith and do the work pleasing to him.

Prayer

Lord Jesus, for too long I’ve kept you out of my life. I know that I am a sinner and that I cannot save myself. No longer will I close the door when I hear you knocking. By faith I gratefully receive your gift of salvation. I am ready to trust you as my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for coming to earth. I believe you are the Son of God who died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead on the third day. Thank you for bearing my sins and giving me the gift of eternal life. I believe your words are true. Come into my heart, Lord Jesus, and be my Savior. Amen.

God Bless
