ACCESSING THE REALM OF GLORY

ACCESSING THE REALM OF GLORY (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 loose all that would have been in our favour. Take some time to thank God for the privilege to encounter 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 discipline himself to allow the word to gain access into his being will one day be given extraordinary access into the realm of glory.  The difference between a passive worshiper and a passionate worshiper 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 begin to take the lead.
PRACTICAL ISSUES
You cannot encounter new degree of glory except your hunger exceeds your present realm of glory.
Nobody, 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 that 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 license to disrespect others.
