God's Glory


Scriptural Highlight: (Isaiah 60:1) - "Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you."


Glory is the beauty of God; it is the manifestation of God's presence in a person's life or in a place. God is everywhere and knows everything but when He decides to reveal Himself more to someone - that is His glory. Psalm 19:1KJV says, "The heavens declare the Glory of God; and the firmament showeth his handiwork." If you want to see how glorious God is, just look at heaven, look at the firmament, look at His handiwork. If the firmament declare God's glory, what about us - the image of God?

It takes God to make a place heaven. Anywhere God finds Himself in, automatically becomes glorious. Heaven is heaven because God dwells their and His radiance just overshadows everywhere. The Garden  of Eden was glorious because God always showed up. Beloved if you can give God a place in your life, He'll turn your life to glory. Any home that gives God a place becomes heaven on earth. In Revelation 21:36-37, John writes, "The dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying nor pain anymore for the former things have passed away." You see, when the dwelling place of man becomes the dwelling place of God, that place becomes heaven on earth.

Our scriptural highlight for today charges us to arise and shine. To arise is to believe; to arise is to give Jesus, who is our risen light, a place in our hearts; to arise is to walk in light of His words. And when these are achieved in a man's life, glory is inescapable for that life. Flourish!

Pray: Lord, I arise, please help me to shine forth in Jesus name.

GO BY HIS POWER

  GO BY HIS POWER Scriptural Highlight: (Philippians 4:13 ESV) - "For I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." God has the ability to empower you to do any assignment for His kingdom. Being a disciple for Christ requires extraordinary strength and power. Bible admonishes us in Ephesians 6:11-12 to: " Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places." From this scripture, we see that evil have forces that enforce its influence over people. Merriam Webster' Dictionary defines an aspect of force as "a body (as of troops or ships) assigned to a military purpose". So the spiritual forces we saw in Ephesians 6:12 have one purpose, and that is to make sure that evil is reigning in the ...

What Image are you carrying?

Scriptural Highlight: ( Genesis 5:3 ) - "When Adam had lived 130 years, he fathered a son in his own likeness, after his image, and named him Seth." Our scriptural highlight for today is about the generations of Adam after creation. Reading down from verses 1 and  2 of this Genesis chapter 5, we can see that when God created man, he made him in the likeness of God. Man was made in God's image; and as God's image was meant to reproduce God's image as well. You can say that man was god on earth. Man operated in a realm higher than any other creature. Man was in a class of his own. Man remained God's image until he disobeyed God. From our scriptural highlight today, what we see is that when Abraham had lived 130 years, he fathered a son in his own likeness, after his image. What happened to the image and likeness of God in which he was created? It has been lost through sin. The nature he now carried was his own image and not God's.  His own offspring ...

Your Kidney Deserves The Best (Re-Post)

Barely two (2) days ago, we all received the news of the demise of a Nigerian actor as a result of same kidney disease. I want to show you how to avert this menace of kidney disease. Very easy and effective. And don't forget that I copied it. So feel free to share, copy and disseminate. SO HERE ARE THE TOP 6 CAUSE OF KIDNEY DISEASE: 1. Delaying going to a toilet Keeping your urine in your bladder for too long is a bad idea. A full bladder can cause bladder damage. The urine that stays in the bladder multiplies bacteria quickly. Once the urine refluxes back to the ureter and kidneys, the toxic substances can result in kidney infections, then urinary tract infections, and then nephritis, and even uremia. When nature calls – do it as soon as possible. 2. Eating too much salt,You should eat no more than 5.8 grams of salt daily. 3. Eating too much meat. Too much protein in your diet is harmful for your kidneys. Protein digestion produces ammonia – a toxin that is very destru...
