The Glory of God

  

What does the "Glory of God" mean to you? His splendor? His greatness? His power?

God's Glory means all of the above and so much more.  Scripture is full of verses that speak of God's Glory.

No dictionary definition can do justice in describing the word glory, when we refer to God's Glory. It's beyond our comprehension. It will take all eternity to fully understand and experience the wonder of God's Glory.

"We’re told Jesus is the radiance of God's Glory and the exact representation of His Being. Everything we've learned and know about Jesus is exactly who our God is." Hebrews 1:3

God's Glory has multiple meanings in Scripture. The display of His magnificence, the praise and honor showered upon His great Name, and awesome splendor barely touch how awesome our God is.

God's Glory is important because we see His power and majestic beauty. When we praise God, it reminds us of how good He is.

How do you take the One who is Omnipotent, Omniscient, Omnipresent, Eternal, Holy, Glorious, and try to wrap all that glory into an answer? It is hard to do.

Why is His Glory so important? Seeing God's Glory in the heavens and the earth points to how amazing and wonderful He is. We see His power and majestic beauty.

Moses wanted to see His Glory, but God put him in the cleft of the rock and covered him until He passed by. Today God's presence dwells within us. As we surrender to the Holy Spirit, God's Glory within will radiate to those around us.

"And they were calling to one another: Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of His Glory." Isaiah 6:3
