THE GLORY OF GOD--PSALM 84:11-12; JOHN 17:22-23, 2 CORINTHIANS 3:18

THE GLORY OF GOD


Glory is given by God, Psalm 84:11-12, For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. 12- O LORD of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.
Glory is given by Christ, John 17:22-23, And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one: 23- I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.

Glory is the work of the Holy Spirit, 2 Corinthians 3:18, But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.

Eternal Glory is obtained by Christ, Hebrews 2:10, For it became him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

The glory and joy of the pastor, 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20, For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming? 20- For ye are our glory and joy.

The Glory of the gospel exceeds that of the law, 2 Corinthians 3:9-11, For if the ministration of condemnation be glory, much more doth the ministration of righteousness exceed in glory. 10- For even that which was made glorious had no glory in this respect, by reason of the glory that excelleth. 11- For if that which is done away was glorious, much more that which remaineth is glorious.

The Glory of God is exhibited in Christ, John 1:14, And the Word was made 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.

God’s glory is described as great, Psalm 138:5, Yea, they shall sing in the ways of the LORD: for great is the glory of the LORD.

God’s glory is rich, Ephesians 3:16, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

God’s works declare His glory, Psalm 19:1, The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Psalm 111:3, His work is honourable and glorious: and his righteousness endureth forever.

God’s holiness is glorious, Exodus 15:11, Who is like unto thee, O LORD, among the gods? who is like thee, glorious in holiness, fearful in praises, doing wonders?

God is jealous of His glory, Isaiah 42:8, I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.

The earth is full of the Glory of God, Isaiah 6:3, And one cried unto another, and said, Holy, holy, holy, is the LORD of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

The knowledge of God’s glory shall fill the earth, Habakkuk 2:14, For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea.
