Glory Within I

Any man devoid of glory is a wasted destiny. This is because lack of glory is equal to lack of the good things of life. Several people think that glory is just the ability to do supernatural things and that only some people carry glory. I have good news for you; glory is not allocated to some alone. God has put in every man what is called created glory. Every man has the created glory, though in the Garden of Eden, when man disobeyed God satan succeeded in using deceit to strip man of his glory. Salvation through Christ Jesus activates the created glory untamed.

Redemption is the key that breaks the outer covering hindering the full measure of the created glory. If you want to manifest the glory God created in you then get into a love relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus is the way to glory, the truth of glory and the life of glory. Receive Him and you've engaged your life in the full process of manifesting the created glory as ordained of God from the beginning. Redemption makes the glory to work. You ignore Jesus and your created glory stays stagnant forever.

After a man is saved, what else will he do to activate the glory within? He must discover the glory within. Glory that will shine for all to see must be discovered, pursued and defended. The glory within can be activated by recognising God-given talents, work at the talents and with the talents until you break forth in glory. David in the text of today was located and taken to the king's palace because God helped him locate the glory within, Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Bethlehemite, that is cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the LORD is with him: 1Sam. 16:18. David's talent paved way for him into glory in the palace. He was so known with how he used his talent that a servant spoke about him in the place and introduced him to glory . Cease to hide your talents, give them expression at home, at school and in service to humanity and you'll manifest the glory in great shining.

Prayer/Action
* Write out your God-given talents and ways to use them positively .
