THE GLORY OF GOD’S PRESENCE (PART 1)


TEXT: Psalm 16:11.

“There are realms of glory we may never walk in until we
learn some of the secrets of the way of the Spirit. There
is a path designed to usher us from one degree of glory to
another. The further you travel on this road, the greater will be the
Manifestation of God’s glory upon your life. The closer you are
to the Lord, the more sensitive you become to locate the way.” FFPW pg. 166.

CONTEMPLATION
Today many want to walk in the glory of God without a sincere desire to bring God glory. They are interested in the attention and recognition that comes with it. Any man who will walk in the full manifestation of the glory must have a heart that is passionate and intimate with the Lord. If we do not care about the feelings and longings of His heart why should the Lord entrust us with things that are very precious to Him? Those who are desperate after Him more than his blessings are those that are easily released into the realms of deeper glory. The amazing thing is that they also end up with the blessings of God. In the glory of His presence every sick will be healed and the afflicted set free. There is more in the presence of God.
PRACTICAL ISSUES
Have you gotten a fresh revelation from God in the past two days as you spent time alone with the Lord? In His presence there is no stagnation.Daily Devotional by Rev. Igho Y.

ACCESSING THE REALM OF GLORY


TEXT:  2 Corinthians 3:7-18.

Sometimes we often become too familiar with the presence of God upon the life of a servant of God or in a place of worship and we begin to lose all that would have been in our favour. Take some time to thank God for the privilege of encountering Him in some lives and places. Do something to show your gratitude.

CONTEMPLATION                              
“Many are struggling to worship because they can’t see or
hear spiritually. They are trying to access the realm of worship
in the flesh, and this is not possible. Until we respond to
the call like John, we will never be able to enter the throne
room. “…Those who worship Him must worship Him in spirit
and in truth.” FFPW p92.
It is a waste of time trying to encounter God by your intellect. “God is a spirit: and they that worship Him must worship Him in spirit and in truth.” any man who disciplines himself to allow the word gain access into his being will one day be given extraordinary access into the realm of glory.  The difference between a passive worshipper and a passionate worshipper is the degree of glory they are in fellowship with. Some are limited in worship because they only respond to a planned order of worship, but there are others whose worship is a divine response to a divine call. Every man who is continuously in the presence of God has a sweet advantage ahead of others in all aspect of life. Make the Holy Spirit your sweet and active companion and you will too begin to take the lead over others.

PRACTICAL ISSUES
You cannot encounter new degree of glory except your hunger exceeds your present realm of glory.
No one, church or body is responsible for the degree of glory made manifest in your life. It is up to you.

If you have lost respect and admiration for people and places that once stirred up excitement in your spirit chances are, you have become insensitive and full of yourself. Jesus was the fullness of the godhead bodily yet He held in high esteem the ministry of the prophets before Him. A greater or a peculiar anointing is not a licence to disrespect others.
