Steve Fish, a Pastor at Convergence Church (click on 11-20-11) from Ft. Worth, Texas had an excellent message regarding the Glory of the Lord in response to this video from Redding.
THE GLORY OF THE LORD:
Exodus 16:10 It came about as Aaron spoke to the whole congregation of the sons of Israel, that they looked toward the wilderness, and behold, the glory of the LORD appeared in the cloud.
Exodus 24:16, 17 The glory of the LORD rested on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it for six days; and on the seventh day He called to Moses from the midst of the cloud. And to the eyes of the sons of Israel the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like a consuming fire on the mountain top.
Exodus 29:42 (the tabernacle) It shall be a continual burnt offering throughout your generations at the doorway of the tent of meeting before the LORD, where I will meet with you, to speak to you there. I will meet there with the sons of Israel, and it shall be consecrated(to make holy) by My glory.
Exodus 40:34, 35 Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle. Moses was not able to enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
Numbers 14:20 So the LORD said, “I have pardoned them according to your word; but indeed, as I live, all the earth will be filled with the glory of the LORD.
Numbers 16:42 It came about, however, when the congregation had assembled against Moses and Aaron, that they turned toward the tent of meeting, and behold, the cloud covered it and the glory of the LORD appeared.
I Samuel 4:21 And she called the boy Ichabod (no glory), saying, “The glory has departed from Israel,” because the ark of God was taken and because of her father-in-law and her husband.
Psalms 26:8 O LORD, I love the habitation of Your house and the place where Your glory dwells.
Psalm 63:2 Thus I have seen You in the sanctuary, To see Your power and Your glory.
Isaiah 40:5 Then the glory of the LORD will be revealed, And all flesh will see it together; For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.” (This is the prophetic word of Jesus' coming!)
John 1:14 And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.
John 2:11 This beginning of His signs Jesus did in Cana of Galilee, and manifested His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.
John 11:40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?" (raising the dead is a manifestation Glory of God!)
John 17:22 The glory which You have given Me I have given to them (this is you and me!), that they may be one, just as We are one;
Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (He came to redeem us from the curse and from falling short of glory!)
Romans 8:17 Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.
Romans 8:21, 22 that the creation itself will be liberated (set free) from its bondage to decay and brought into the freedom and glory of the children of God. We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.
Ephesians 5:27 (we are going to presented Jesus) and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.
Revelation 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.
Colossians 1:27 To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
Acts 4:13 Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus. (The GLORY was on them and they "recognized" it.)
II Corinthians 3:18 But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as from the Lord, the Spirit. (From glory to glory to glory...we are being transfigured (metamorphosis).)
II Corinthians 3:10 For indeed what had glory, in this case has no glory because of the glory that surpasses it. For if that which fades away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory.
II Corinthians 3:12 Therefore having such a hope (the hope of glory), we use great boldness in our speech. (Boldness in Greek means "freedom of speech". We have no need to "veil" who we are anymore! We are FREE to be who we really are!)
II Corinthians 3:7 But if the ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was...
II Corinthians 3:13 (Moses glory was fading away)...and are not like Moses, who used to put a veil over his face so that the sons of Israel would not look intently at the end of what was fading away.
II Corinthians 3:11 For if that which fades away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory. (Moses glory was fading but we have unfading glory (vs 11).)
II Corinthians 3:10 For indeed what had glory, in this case has no glory because of the glory that surpasses it. For if that which fades away was with glory, much more that which remains is in glory. (surpassing glory (vs 10) and ever increasing glory!)
Come brothers and sisters, let us WALK IN HIS GLORY!
