Activate the Glory in You

Text: Col. 1:27
MORE LESSON: Eph.1: 9-12

Everyone that is created of God is made with a measure of glory by reason of creation. There is a glory resident in every created man called the created glory. The Psalmists aid concerning man; What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour. Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands; thou hast put all things under his feet: All sheep and oxen, yea, and the beasts of the field; The fowl of the air, and the fish of the sea, and whatsoever passeth through the paths of the seas. Psa. 8:4-8.

Man is a creation of dominion, a product of God Himself, made in His image to be and do on earth what God is and does in heaven. I want you to know that every man, whether born again or not, carries glory by the reason of being created by God.

However, the glory in a believer is active by the reason of redemption while the glory in the unbeliever is inactive. Salvation activates the glory God created you with; so when you are born again, you need to partner with God to get your glory to work. The Bible says; . . . Christ in you is the hope of glory. Col 1:27; meaning that when you accept Christ, your glory comes alive. For example, it is possible to own a car but not know how to drive. You can buy a car and keep it on the same spot while it deteriorates till it rots there. What use is such a car to you? When Christ is in you, your glory comes alive and you cease to be ordinary. As a child of God, you are not ordinary; you are the offspring of the Lion of the tribe of Judah, and the child of a lion is a lion. So you don't manifest the characteristics of a cat, even though science claims that the lion and the cat belong to the same family but we know that they differ.

A child of Jehovah and an unbeliever may belong both to the human race but they are different. Even though one is created with glory, the born again child of God has what it takes to make the inherent glory eternally relevant. If you are not born again or you are living in sin as a Christian, you can't manifest glory because the redemption makes the glory active and functional. As you rededicate your life to the Lord today, the glory of your destiny will manifest. I terminate whatever hindered your glory from being expressed in Jesus’ name.

Prayer/Action
* Say, “Father by your redemptive power over my life, I activate any creative glory today”.
* Go ahead and terminate every anti-glory manifestations in your life by the right of your redemption promises.
* Command your glory to come alive and end the forces of shame and disgrace.
