WELCOME TO MAY OUR MONTH OF GLORY

MAY, 2013 OUR MONTH OF GLORY

Welcome to the month of May 2013 – Our month of Glory! The word of the Lord that came to me for this Month is found in the book of 2Cor.3:18 which read:

“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.”

The word translated glory is the Hebrew word “Kabod” which means weight figuratively in a positive sense; it also means honour, splendor or copiousness. The Greek word translated glory which is the same as in our text scripture here is “Doxa” and it means dignity, honor, praise and worship. When these two translations are put together, they bear the sense of the manifest presence of God. In other words, the presence of God is positively weighty, splendorous, dignified, and honorable to the point of generating praise and worship from deep within us. The result is that in many cases, human bodies cannot bear the weight of His glory standing. This explains why when God’s manifest presence or glory comes into our gatherings, some people or all in the gathering are slain in the Spirit.

The glory of God also carries a sense of such brilliance that never leaves us the same. It is so powerful that it has the ability to cause miracles like healings and creative miracles to take place. The glory of God has such a multiplying effect that it has the ability to make the barren fruitful and the carnal become spiritual. This is because of its transforming ability as indicated in our text scripture.

However, for the glory of God to bring about our much needed change, we must cultivate it through gratitude and praise like Jesus did and was able to speak a blessing that multiplied five loaves and two fishes to feed five thousand men besides women and children and had some basket full of the food in excess in Luke 9:16-17 & John 6:10-13 . Secondly, we must behold the glory in the word of God without any pretensions before the Spirit who brings about the transformation in our lives through the word of God we keep before our eyes and allow into us through our ears and release His power through our speech.

In light of the foregoing, this month, by way of spiritual diet, we shall be seeing how to apply the word of God for the release of His glory that would bring about our promised transformation from glory to glory.

Heavenly father,Have mercy on me a sinner. I repent of my sin and receive the sacrifice of Jesus Christ on Calvary’s cross for my salvation.
