The Glory of God

“And we all, with unveiled face, continually seeing as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are progressively being transformed into his image from [one degree of] glory to [even more] glory, which comes from the Lord, [who is] the Spirit.”

2 Corinthians 3:18 AMP

When Adam and Eve sinned, they were not only forced to leave paradise but they also fell short from God’s Glory. So the connection between God and the human race was cut-off until Jesus Christ came and restored us to the Glory of God through the price he paid on Calvary.

The Glory of God is the manifested presence of God; It is his manifested character, beauty, power, majesty and weight. The glory of God is more than everything! Even if we don’t have any material to count as our property, if we have the glory of God we are the richest person in God’s sight. The bible tells us that the Holy Spirit increases our fullness in the Glory of God until we transform into the image of Jesus Christ as he is the ultimate expression of the Glory of God according to Hebrews 1:3 “The Son is the radiance and only expression of the glory of [our awesome] God [reflecting God’s Shekinah glory, the Light-being, the brilliant light of the divine], and the exact representation and perfect imprint of His [Father’s] essence…” –AMP. 

It is illegal for a christian to live without the Glory of God. If you don’t experience the Glory of God in your spirit, your soul will remain unsatisfied. But if you have the glory of God in you and if you allow the Holy Spirit to usher his Glory in your life more and more, your resemblance with Jesus will increase and you will experience the life of God in your life.
