The Glory
                    of God

Tuesday 22 November 2011
glory |ˈglôrē|
                           noun ( pl. -ries)

           high renown or honor
              won by notable
               achievements

                           magnificence;
                           great beauty
Tuesday 22 November 2011
Evans says,
        “Glory is the process of
        manifesting, demonstrating
        one’s attributes; letting
        everyone in the stands see
        you strut your stuff; letting
        people in on who you are
        on what makes you tick.
        That’s glory.
        “Only God has true glory.
        Nothing can ever happen to
        dim or diminish his glory.”
Tuesday 22 November 2011
1. God’s glory manifested
                  in his nature

       The glory of God is, “the
       visible manifestation of his
       attributes, his character, his
       perfections”
       The OT word for glory
       means “to be weighted, to
       be heavy”.
       Awesome is used of God’s
       glory - because that is what
       he is!

Tuesday 22 November 2011
The glory of God is the composite of
all that he is - the sum of his being,
the comprehensive grouping of all
his qualities, attributes etc.
Evans examines God’s glory further
through Exodus 33:13-23. Moses
makes three requests of God.
1. Verse 13 -If you are pleased with me,
teach me your ways so I may know you
and continue to find favor with you. To
follow God you need to know him,
his ways are different to ours.            Aluminum Composite
The LORD replied, “My Presence will go     Panel - widely used in
with you...”                                   construction
Tuesday 22 November 2011
2. Then Moses said to him,
“If your Presence does not
go with us, do not send us
up from here.
Important principle - if
God is not with you it is
not worth going
anywhere.
And the LORD said to
Moses, “I will do the very
thing you have asked,
because I am pleased with
you and I know you by
name.”
Tuesday 22 November 2011
3. Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”
In other words “I want to see and know
all that you are God, show me
everything”.
...the LORD said, “I will cause all my goodness
to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my
name, the LORD, in your presence. I will have
mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will
have compassion on whom I will have
compassion. But,” he said, “you cannot see my
face, for no one may see me and live.”
When my glory passes by, I will put you in a
cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand
until I have passed by. Then I will remove my
hand and you will see my back; but my face
must not be seen.”
Tuesday 22 November 2011
The Hebrew word for goodness
    was also used for jewelry, it
    means splendour. God has
    intrinsic glory - it is part of who
    he is.
    We try to look or be glorious,
    make up, plastic surgery,
    possessions etc. - God has it
    within himself, and it is there
    whether you recognise it or not.

“I am the LORD; that is my name!
    I will not yield my glory to another
    or my praise to idols.
    Isaiah 42:8
    Not to us, LORD, not to us but to
    your name be the glory, because of
    your love and faithfulness.
    Psalm 115:1
    The glory of God does not depend
    on what he does but is about who
    he is
    Psalm 29:3 - he is the God of glory

2. God’s glory manifested
                    in history

  God’s internal essence is shown by
  his external actions - the manifest
  glory of God, Shekinah glory -
  meaning “to reside or dwell with,
  so men can see it.”
  Evans says, “The internal essence
  of God would be a huge, radiating
  light. If God were to come to show
  us his inner self, we would see a
  big light. Where do I get that...?”

1 Tim 6:15-16
           which God will bring about in his own time—God, the
           blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of
           lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in
           unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see.
           To him be honor and might forever. Amen.
           The sun is 93 million miles from us, yet we feel its
           effects and couldn’t get within 1,000,000 miles
           without being burnt to bits
           God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.

           1 John 1:5


Tuesday 22 November 2011
When God shows up in history it is
 always in relation to light;
 Ezekiel 1:28 Like the appearance of a
 rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so
 was the radiance around him. This was the
 appearance of the likeness of the glory of
 the LORD. When I saw it, I fell facedown,
 and I heard the voice of one speaking.
 Luke 2:9 An angel of the Lord appeared to
 them, and the glory of the Lord shone
 around them, and they were terrified.
 Rev 21:23 The city does not need the sun
 or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of
 God gives it light, and the Lamb is its
 lamp.
Tuesday 22 November 2011
2.a.Revealed in creation

   God reveals the light of his glory in a
   number of ways:
   Psalm 19:1-2, 4-6
   We cannot hide from God’s glory as it
   is revealed in the world around us. Go
   outside and see how glorious God is.
   Our galaxy, the Milky way, has over
   200 billion stars - and the universes is
   thought to have at least 1 million other
   such galaxies


Tuesday 22 November 2011
The 2.a.Revealed glory of God; the skies
        heavens declare the in creation
   proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day
  God reveals the light speech; night after night they
    they pour forth of his glory in a
    reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they
  number of ways:
  use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet
  Psalm 19:1-2, 4-6
  Wetheir voicefrom God’s glory as itthe earth, their
       cannot hide goes out into all
  is revealed in the ends of the world. In the heavens
   words to the world around us. Go
  outside has see how glorious God is. sun. It is like a
    God and pitched a tent for the
  Our galaxy, the Milky way, has of his chamber, like a
    bridegroom coming out over
  200 billion stars - and the universes is
  champion rejoicing1to run other
  thought to have at least million
                                     his course. It rises at
  such galaxies the heavens and makes its circuit to
  one end of
     the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth.

2.b. Revealed in the tabernacle
  God revealed his glory in and around the tabernacle,
  Exodus 40:34-38
  Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the
  LORD filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the tent of
  meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the
  LORD filled the tabernacle.
  In all the travels of the Israelites, whenever the cloud lifted from
  above the tabernacle, they would set out; but if the cloud did not
  lift, they did not set out—until the day it lifted. So the cloud of
  the LORD was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the
  cloud by night, in the sight of all the Israelites during all their
  travels.
Tuesday 22 November 2011
Why did God appear as a cloud of glory?
            Evans suggests this as a principle for
            Christian living - don’t move until the glory
            cloud moves - if you have a passion for the
            glory of God look for it, then it will pull you
            forward and move you on at the right time.

2.c. Revealed in the temple

   1 Kings 8:10-11 reveals
   God’s glory in the temple,
   the permanent dwelling
   pace of God.
   When the priests withdrew from
   the Holy Place, the cloud filled
   the temple of the LORD. And
   the priests could not perform
   their service because of the
   cloud, for the glory of the
   LORD filled his temple.


Tuesday 22 November 2011
2.c. Revealed in the temple
                                     Because God was present
   1 Kings 8:10-11 reveals           amongst his people so
   God’s glory in the temple,        were all of his attributes -
   the permanent dwelling            power, knowledge, truth,
   pace of God.                      presence, guidance,
   When the priests withdrew from    revelation - thus we see
   the Holy Place, the cloud filled   the importance of the
   the temple of the LORD. And       glory of God residing
   the priests could not perform     with us.
   their service because of the
                                     1 Sam 4:21 - ichabod =
   cloud, for the glory of the
                                     the glory has departed =
   LORD filled his temple.
                                     no presence = disaster!

Zerubbabel's Temple
                              The rebuilding of Jerusalem's
                           temple was done in stages (c. 536–
                           516 b.c.). First, the altar was built,
                             so that sacrifices could again be
                             made (Ezra 3:2–3). The second
                                phase was the laying of the
                                 foundation of the temple.
                            The only information given in the
                                 biblical record about the
                             architecture of the temple is the
                               dimensions, which were sixty
                           cubits (90 feet/27 m) high and wide
                            (Ezra 6:3). As there is no mention
                            of the length of the building, these
                           dimensions must refer to the facade
                               of the temple, i.e., the Porch.
Tuesday 22 November 2011
Herod's Temple in
                            the Time of Jesus
                               Herod began
                           construction of this
                           magnificent temple
                             in 20/19 b.c., the
                            main construction
                                 phase was
                             completed within
                           about a decade. The
                           Roman army under
                           Titus destroyed the
                            temple during the
                                 capture of
                             Jerusalem in a.d.
                                    70.

Tuesday 22 November 2011
2.d. Revealed in christ
   The ultimate revelation of God’s glory
   is Jesus Christ. John 1:1, 14, 18
   In the beginning was the Word, and the
   Word was with God, and the Word was
   God...The Word became flesh and made his
   dwelling among us. We have seen his glory,
   the glory of the one and only Son, who
   came from the Father, full of grace and
   truth...No one has ever seen God, but the
   one and only Son, who is himself God and
   is in closest relationship with the Father,
   has made him known.

Tuesday 22 November 2011
2.d. Revealed in christ
   On earth Jesus was God’s
   glory in human flesh -
   because of this he could do
   the miracles and things
   that only God can do.
   During the Transfiguration
   we see Jesus in a glorified
   form - as if there was a
   bursting out of the glory of
   God from within him - and
   even the voice from heaven
   made them all hide their
   faces. Matt 17:1-8
Tuesday 22 November 2011
2.d. Revealed in the church
   Eph 3:20-21 - Now to him who is able
   to do immeasurably more than all we
   ask or imagine, according to his power
   that is at work within us, to him be
   glory in the church and in Christ Jesus
   throughout all generations, for ever and
   ever! Amen.
   God’s glory is shown through the
   people of God - we reflect and
   mirror what God is like
   Eph 1:12 -in order that we, who were
   the first to put our hope in Christ, might
   be for the praise of his glory.
Tuesday 22 November 2011
3. God’s glory: the basis
               of blessing and cursing
    2 Cor 4:3-4 -And even if our gospel is
    veiled, it is veiled to those who are
    perishing. The god of this age has blinded
    the minds of unbelievers, so that they
    cannot see the light of the gospel that
    displays the glory of Christ, who is the
    image of God.
    Rom 3:23 - for all have sinned and fall
    short of the glory of God,
    We are sinners because we are not
    like God - his inner being and ours
    are totally different - we have sinned
    and don’t match up to his glory
Tuesday 22 November 2011
Evans suggests that the glory of God
which proved us sinners now becomes
the basis of our blessing:
2 Cor 4:6-7 - For God, who said, “Let light
shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in
our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge
of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.
But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show
that this all-surpassing power is from God and
not from us.
Where’s the blessing? It is shown in 8-9,
We are hard pressed on every side, but not
crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;
persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but
not destroyed.
Tuesday 22 November 2011
When you have God’s glory the
   problems do not crush you, you
   might get confused but you don’t
   commit suicide - there maybe
   problems all around but God’s
   glory surounds you and therefore
   means you are not destroyed.
   So the glory of God brings his
   support, encouragement,
   blessing, strength etc. - it does
   not mean there will never be
   difficulties, simply that God
   promises strength for you to go
   through it.

Tuesday 22 November 2011
God’s glory demands a
                         response

           Only fallen men and fallen
           angels don’t voluntarily
           glorify God.
           Claiming to esteem (respect,
           admire, honour) God has to
           be shown - how much you
           esteem God is shown by
           what you do - how do you
           respond to God?


Tuesday 22 November 2011
1. Sing to him

   Psalm 96:1-3 - Sing to the LORD
   a new song; sing to the LORD, all
   the earth. Sing to the LORD, praise
   his name; proclaim his salvation
   day after day. Declare his glory
   among the nations, his marvelous
   deeds among all peoples.
   According to Evans, cows
   mooing, cats meowing and the
   rest are all giving glory to God -
   verse Psalm 96: 11-13a


Tuesday 22 November 2011
Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be
   glad; let the sea resound, and all that is
   in it. Let the fields be jubilant, and
   everything in them; let all the trees of the
   forest sing for joy. Let all creation rejoice
   before the LORD, for he comes,
   And we should be doing the same,
   look at verses 7-9;
   Ascribe to the LORD, all you families of
   nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and
   strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory
   due his name; bring an offering and come
   into his courts. Worship the LORD in
   the splendor of his holiness; tremble
   before him, all the earth.
Tuesday 22 November 2011
2. Praise him
    We cannot give glory to God -
    it is intrinsic to him - but we
    can ascribe it to him.
    A judge or policeman becomes
    glorious by putting on a robe
    or uniform and becomes less
    glorious by taking it off - God
    never takes his glory off - he is
    glorious
    How much - Ps 113:3 - From
    the rising of the sun to the place
    where it sets, the name of the LORD
    is to be praised. All times, all
    places, all events
Tuesday 22 November 2011
3. Glorify Him
    Jesus healed 10 lepers and only
    one came back to praise him -
    Luke 17:13-19
    v. 17 “Jesus asked, “Were not all ten
    cleansed? Where are the other nine?”
    Where are we when it comes to
    glorifying God - in bed, too
    tired...God has given us life in
    him, our response should be to
    glorify him - something that can
    be done in many ways:


Tuesday 22 November 2011
1. Bearing much fruit - Jn 15:8
    2. Doing good works - Matt 5:16
    3. Being sexually pure - 1 Cor
    6:18-20
    4. Confessing sins - Josh 7:9
    5. Living by faith - Rom 4:19-21
    6. Proclaiming his word - 2Thess
    3:1 etc.




Tuesday 22 November 2011
And even if non-believers won’t
    glorify God, God will still get the
    glory
    Look at Pharaoh - would not let
    Israel go - Ex 14:17 - I will harden
    the hearts of the Egyptians so that they
    will go in after them. And I will gain
    glory through Pharaoh and all his
    army, through his chariots and his
    horsemen.
    The question is not whether God
    will be glorified but whether we
    will give it to him voluntarily!

    Lord’s glory, are being
    transformed into his image with
    ever-increasing glory, which
    comes from the Lord, who is
    the Spirit.

A Temporary glow
 Exodus 34
 When Moses came down from Mount
 Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant
 law in his hands, he was not aware that his
 face was radiant because he had spoken
 with the LORD. When Aaron and all the
 Israelites saw Moses, his face was radiant,
 and they were afraid to come near him...
 When Moses finished speaking to them, he
 put a veil over his face. But whenever he
 entered the LORD’s presence to speak
 with him, he removed the veil until he
 came out.

A Permanent glow
 Meeting Jesus, becoming a
 Christian, puts a glow in our lives. If
 we expose ourselves to God’s glory
 this remains - if not we need to re-
 enter his presence and be
 transformed.
 David in Ps 16:8-9 said - I keep my
 eyes always on the LORD. With him at
 my right hand, I will not be shaken.
 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue
 rejoices; my body also will rest secure,
 The presence of God (eyes fixed on)
 produces gladness and rejoicing.

  • 6. Evans says, “Glory is the process of manifesting, demonstrating one’s attributes; letting everyone in the stands see you strut your stuff; letting people in on who you are on what makes you tick. That’s glory. “Only God has true glory. Nothing can ever happen to dim or diminish his glory.” Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 7. 1. God’s glory manifested in his nature The glory of God is, “the visible manifestation of his attributes, his character, his perfections” The OT word for glory means “to be weighted, to be heavy”. Awesome is used of God’s glory - because that is what he is! Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 8. The glory of God is the composite of all that he is - the sum of his being, the comprehensive grouping of all his qualities, attributes etc. Evans examines God’s glory further through Exodus 33:13-23. Moses makes three requests of God. 1. Verse 13 -If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. To follow God you need to know him, his ways are different to ours. Aluminum Composite The LORD replied, “My Presence will go Panel - widely used in with you...” construction Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 9. 2. Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. Important principle - if God is not with you it is not worth going anywhere. And the LORD said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.” Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 10. 3. Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.” In other words “I want to see and know all that you are God, show me everything”. ...the LORD said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the LORD, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion. But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.” When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by. Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen.” Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 11. The Hebrew word for goodness was also used for jewelry, it means splendour. God has intrinsic glory - it is part of who he is. We try to look or be glorious, make up, plastic surgery, possessions etc. - God has it within himself, and it is there whether you recognise it or not. Tuesday 22 November 2011

  • 23. 2. God’s glory manifested in history God’s internal essence is shown by his external actions - the manifest glory of God, Shekinah glory - meaning “to reside or dwell with, so men can see it.” Evans says, “The internal essence of God would be a huge, radiating light. If God were to come to show us his inner self, we would see a big light. Where do I get that...?” Tuesday 22 November 2011

  • 26. 1 Tim 6:15-16 which God will bring about in his own time—God, the blessed and only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords, who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. The sun is 93 million miles from us, yet we feel its effects and couldn’t get within 1,000,000 miles without being burnt to bits God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. 1 John 1:5 Tuesday 22 November 2011

  • 29. When God shows up in history it is always in relation to light; Ezekiel 1:28 Like the appearance of a rainbow in the clouds on a rainy day, so was the radiance around him. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the LORD. When I saw it, I fell facedown, and I heard the voice of one speaking. Luke 2:9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. Rev 21:23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 30. 2.a.Revealed in creation God reveals the light of his glory in a number of ways: Psalm 19:1-2, 4-6 We cannot hide from God’s glory as it is revealed in the world around us. Go outside and see how glorious God is. Our galaxy, the Milky way, has over 200 billion stars - and the universes is thought to have at least 1 million other such galaxies Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 31. The 2.a.Revealed glory of God; the skies heavens declare the in creation proclaim the work of his hands. Day after day God reveals the light speech; night after night they they pour forth of his glory in a reveal knowledge. They have no speech, they number of ways: use no words; no sound is heard from them. Yet Psalm 19:1-2, 4-6 Wetheir voicefrom God’s glory as itthe earth, their cannot hide goes out into all is revealed in the ends of the world. In the heavens words to the world around us. Go outside has see how glorious God is. sun. It is like a God and pitched a tent for the Our galaxy, the Milky way, has of his chamber, like a bridegroom coming out over 200 billion stars - and the universes is champion rejoicing1to run other thought to have at least million his course. It rises at such galaxies the heavens and makes its circuit to one end of the other; nothing is deprived of its warmth. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 39. 2.b. Revealed in the tabernacle God revealed his glory in and around the tabernacle, Exodus 40:34-38 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. In all the travels of the Israelites, whenever the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle, they would set out; but if the cloud did not lift, they did not set out—until the day it lifted. So the cloud of the LORD was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the sight of all the Israelites during all their travels. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 40. Why did God appear as a cloud of glory? Evans suggests this as a principle for Christian living - don’t move until the glory cloud moves - if you have a passion for the glory of God look for it, then it will pull you forward and move you on at the right time. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 41. 2.c. Revealed in the temple 1 Kings 8:10-11 reveals God’s glory in the temple, the permanent dwelling pace of God. When the priests withdrew from the Holy Place, the cloud filled the temple of the LORD. And the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the LORD filled his temple. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 42. 2.c. Revealed in the temple Because God was present 1 Kings 8:10-11 reveals amongst his people so God’s glory in the temple, were all of his attributes - the permanent dwelling power, knowledge, truth, pace of God. presence, guidance, When the priests withdrew from revelation - thus we see the Holy Place, the cloud filled the importance of the the temple of the LORD. And glory of God residing the priests could not perform with us. their service because of the 1 Sam 4:21 - ichabod = cloud, for the glory of the the glory has departed = LORD filled his temple. no presence = disaster! Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 44. Zerubbabel's Temple The rebuilding of Jerusalem's temple was done in stages (c. 536– 516 b.c.). First, the altar was built, so that sacrifices could again be made (Ezra 3:2–3). The second phase was the laying of the foundation of the temple. The only information given in the biblical record about the architecture of the temple is the dimensions, which were sixty cubits (90 feet/27 m) high and wide (Ezra 6:3). As there is no mention of the length of the building, these dimensions must refer to the facade of the temple, i.e., the Porch. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 45. Herod's Temple in the Time of Jesus Herod began construction of this magnificent temple in 20/19 b.c., the main construction phase was completed within about a decade. The Roman army under Titus destroyed the temple during the capture of Jerusalem in a.d. 70. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 46. 2.d. Revealed in christ The ultimate revelation of God’s glory is Jesus Christ. John 1:1, 14, 18 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth...No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 47. 2.d. Revealed in christ On earth Jesus was God’s glory in human flesh - because of this he could do the miracles and things that only God can do. During the Transfiguration we see Jesus in a glorified form - as if there was a bursting out of the glory of God from within him - and even the voice from heaven made them all hide their faces. Matt 17:1-8 Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 48. 2.d. Revealed in the church Eph 3:20-21 - Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen. God’s glory is shown through the people of God - we reflect and mirror what God is like Eph 1:12 -in order that we, who were the first to put our hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 49. 3. God’s glory: the basis of blessing and cursing 2 Cor 4:3-4 -And even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing. The god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. Rom 3:23 - for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, We are sinners because we are not like God - his inner being and ours are totally different - we have sinned and don’t match up to his glory Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 50. Evans suggests that the glory of God which proved us sinners now becomes the basis of our blessing: 2 Cor 4:6-7 - For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. Where’s the blessing? It is shown in 8-9, We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 51. When you have God’s glory the problems do not crush you, you might get confused but you don’t commit suicide - there maybe problems all around but God’s glory surounds you and therefore means you are not destroyed. So the glory of God brings his support, encouragement, blessing, strength etc. - it does not mean there will never be difficulties, simply that God promises strength for you to go through it. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 52. God’s glory demands a response Only fallen men and fallen angels don’t voluntarily glorify God. Claiming to esteem (respect, admire, honour) God has to be shown - how much you esteem God is shown by what you do - how do you respond to God? Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 53. 1. Sing to him Psalm 96:1-3 - Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth. Sing to the LORD, praise his name; proclaim his salvation day after day. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous deeds among all peoples. According to Evans, cows mooing, cats meowing and the rest are all giving glory to God - verse Psalm 96: 11-13a Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 54. Let the heavens rejoice, let the earth be glad; let the sea resound, and all that is in it. Let the fields be jubilant, and everything in them; let all the trees of the forest sing for joy. Let all creation rejoice before the LORD, for he comes, And we should be doing the same, look at verses 7-9; Ascribe to the LORD, all you families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength. Ascribe to the LORD the glory due his name; bring an offering and come into his courts. Worship the LORD in the splendor of his holiness; tremble before him, all the earth. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 55. 2. Praise him We cannot give glory to God - it is intrinsic to him - but we can ascribe it to him. A judge or policeman becomes glorious by putting on a robe or uniform and becomes less glorious by taking it off - God never takes his glory off - he is glorious How much - Ps 113:3 - From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised. All times, all places, all events Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 56. 3. Glorify Him Jesus healed 10 lepers and only one came back to praise him - Luke 17:13-19 v. 17 “Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine?” Where are we when it comes to glorifying God - in bed, too tired...God has given us life in him, our response should be to glorify him - something that can be done in many ways: Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 57. 1. Bearing much fruit - Jn 15:8 2. Doing good works - Matt 5:16 3. Being sexually pure - 1 Cor 6:18-20 4. Confessing sins - Josh 7:9 5. Living by faith - Rom 4:19-21 6. Proclaiming his word - 2Thess 3:1 etc. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 58. And even if non-believers won’t glorify God, God will still get the glory Look at Pharaoh - would not let Israel go - Ex 14:17 - I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they will go in after them. And I will gain glory through Pharaoh and all his army, through his chariots and his horsemen. The question is not whether God will be glorified but whether we will give it to him voluntarily! Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 59. God’s glory transforms those who respond 2 Cor 3:18 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 60. God’s glory transforms those who respond TM -And so we are transfigured much like the 2 Cor 3:18 Messiah, our lives 18 And we all, who with unveiled faces contemplate the gradually becoming Lord’s glory, are being brighter and more transformed into his image with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is God enters beautiful as our lives and we become the Spirit. like him. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 61. A Temporary glow Exodus 34 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the covenant law in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD. When Aaron and all the Israelites saw Moses, his face was radiant, and they were afraid to come near him... When Moses finished speaking to them, he put a veil over his face. But whenever he entered the LORD’s presence to speak with him, he removed the veil until he came out. Tuesday 22 November 2011
  • 62. A Permanent glow Meeting Jesus, becoming a Christian, puts a glow in our lives. If we expose ourselves to God’s glory this remains - if not we need to re- enter his presence and be transformed. David in Ps 16:8-9 said - I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, The presence of God (eyes fixed on) produces gladness and rejoicing.

  • 64. Responding to the glory of God 1. Look at your daily routine - how much of your time and energy is focussed around giving glory to God - how much is “activity” 2.
