Your Devotional Message for 15th November
Scripture:
But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord (1 Corinthians 3:18).
Explanation:
One of the crucial aspects of human nature lost in the Garden of Eden from Adamic sin is the glory of God and curse came upon Adam. Thanks be to the Lord Jesus Christ who died and redeemed mankind so that the Glory of God could be restored back to those with new life in Christ Jesus. Stay tune!
We will continue in our Daily Meditation today, day 15 of 30 days of our series called living ‘the Higher spiritual life in Christ Jesus’ in which we have been called. We will meditate on scriptures that pertain to the glory of God. You are aware that it is impossible to live a higher dimension of life in Christ without the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of God, and the Name of Jesus. You must make it a contemplation daily to be transformed from glory to glory just as by the Spirit of the Lord. But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord (1 Corinthians 3:18).
Christ in you is the hope of Glory:
To them God willed to make known what the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles are: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27).
There is a dimension of God in which His presence brings visible evidence, demonstration of power and manifestation independent of the faith of the eyewitnesses. When the Glory of God is present, God’s faith became dominant. His Power became supreme over anything both living and non-living. Moses and the children of Israel saw the glory of God.
Example of His glory in the Old Testament:
Now the glory of the Lord rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day He called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud. The sight of the glory of the Lord was like a consuming fire on the top of the mountain in the eyes of the children of Israel (Exodus 24:16-17).
To experience the higher manifestations of the life in Christ Jesus, for greater works, healings, deliverance, signs and wonder supernaturally you need the glory of God.
When an Angel announced to the shepherds in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night:
And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid (Luke 2:9).
I remember a time when a bright ball of light came to my Bedroom as I saw this Light the glory of the Lord filled my room. I could not move for about 2 minutes, and I was terribly afraid. Glory be to God for this encounter with the Glory of God.
Thanks be to God for sending Jesus Christ to give us access to the Glory of God.
Jesus Christ is the Word: And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth (John 1:14).
Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You (Luke 17:1).
And now, O Father, glorify Me together with Yourself, with the glory which I had with You before the world was (John 17:5).
Have you received Jesus Christ as your Lord and saviour?
Today, let me challenge you that Jesus Christ has paid the price and wants you to be his disciple. If you are yet to receive Christ Jesus, do so today by repenting from all your sins and accept Him as Your Lord and saviour.
Thanks be to God for His fullness, grace and His victory. Glory be to God!
In the Month of November 2021, do not miss any day as we meditate on ‘Higher Spiritual life in Christ’
Faith Confession of the Month:
Our Father, thank you, for another day. I shall be glad and rejoice in You. Thank you for salvation, divine health, grace and glory, provision, protection, and supernatural ability at work in me. And I declare boldly that I am aglow and strong in the spirit, filled with wisdom of God; and the grace of God is upon me (Luke 2:40). The Holy Spirit is my Senior Partner. I operate in the Higher dimension of the spirit through the Word of God and the Power of the Holy Spirit. I have the glory of God. I declare that my spiritual ears, eyes, and other spiritual senses are exercised for His divine revelations.
It is written, “And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in the demonstration of the Spirit and of power” (1 Corinthians 2:4). Behold, I receive the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt me (Luke 10:19). I operate with the great grace and Mighty Power of God for His great works – Healings, miracles, signs, and wonders. The word of God is in my mouth and as I meditate, it permeates to the deep part of my Spirit, soul, and body. I am manifesting the great power of God. I rule over Satan and his cohort of darkness with the Fire of the Holy Ghost. 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. Success, wealth, financial abundance and victory are mine in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Glory be to God!
