Also, He brought me by way of the north gate to the front of the temple; so, I looked, and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the house of the Lord; and I fell on my face (Ezekiel 44:4).
Explanation:
This is day 4 of 31 days of the Daily Meditation on the theme basking in the Glory of God. It is an amazing if a place, city, territory, or a nation experience a visitation of the glory. As a believer, basking in the glory of God is your new birth right and must be activated by faith. We serve a Mighty God Who is the God of glory. God’s glory is the greatest dimension of the presence of God with tangible physical evidence of His Power. Let us look further at other instances when the glory of the Lord appeared. What are examples of the tangible physical manifestations of the Glory as given to us in the Scriptures by different events?
The Holy Spirit and His Fire and the glory filled the temple: This is what Solomon and his people witnessed after he had finished praying and the people had offered the burnt offering and the sacrifices.
When Solomon had finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed the burnt offering and the sacrifices; and the glory of the Lord filled the temple. And the priests could not enter the house of the Lord, because the glory of the Lord had filled the Lord’s house (2 Chronicles 7:1-2).
Like the sound of many waters, and the earth shone with His glory (Ezekiel 43:2-5): The Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court; and behold, the glory of the Lord filled the temple (Ezekiel 43:5).
Thunderous manifestation: David wrote that the coming of the Glory of God can cause supernatural manifestation with an unusual thunder. The voice of the Lord is over the waters; The God of glory thunders; The Lord is over many waters (Psalm 29:3).
Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day: Prophet Ezekiel saw this.
Glory be to God. As you read this, desire to experience the glory of God. Like the appearance of a rainbow in a cloud on a rainy day, so was the appearance of the brightness all around it. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord (Ezekiel 1:28).
Say I am a carrier of the glory of God. Study and meditate on the Word of God. Pray in the Spirit often. Expect and ask God to manifest His Glory and the Angelic ministration.
Thanks be to God for His glory.
Stay tune as we shall continue further tomorrow. Remain uncommonly blessed.
In the Month of July 2021, do not miss any day as we will be exploring ‘Basking in the glory of God’
Faith Confession for Power:
Thank you, Lord for the Spirit of the Lord is at work in me. Let the sight of the glory of the Lord be as a consuming fire around my life that make my adversaries to flee.
It is written, “And my speech and my preaching will not be with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (1 Corinthians 2:4). Behold, I receive the authority and power to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me. Therefore, I rule over Satan and his cohort of darkness. I operate in the great Power of God for His great works – Healings, miracles and signs and wonders. The word of God is in my mouth like Fire and as I meditate, it permeates to the deep part of my Spirit, soul, and body. I am manifesting the power and the glory of God.
I prosper in my spirit, soul, and body. My life is flourishing in all areas of life as well as my health even as my soul prospers. Prosperity and success are mine in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Further Reading scriptures to meditate:
Then the Spirit lifted me up, and I heard behind me a great thunderous voice: “Blessed is the glory of the Lord from His place!” (Ezekiel 3:12).
