Are You Aware of His Glory?
Isaiah 6:3 “…the whole earth is full of His glory!”
I have always thought a full manifestation of His glory was yet to come. I often pray as a companion to “Your kingdom come. Your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.” (Mt. 6:10) the promise in Habakkuk 2:14, “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea.” I now think it’s the knowledge of His glory that is lacking.
I see other passages supporting this:
John 14:9b “…He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?”
Colossians 2:9 “For in Him all the fullness of Deity (Triune God) dwells in bodily form.” And Jesus lives in us by faith. (John 14:23)
Moses prayed, “I pray You, show me Your glory!” (Ex. 33:18) This prayer is answered for us all in Christ.
So I pray, “Lord Jesus, make me increasingly aware of Your glory that fills the earth today! Open my eyes to ‘see’ You at work in the world around me. Make me aware of Your abiding Presence.” Amen.
