GLORIFIED IN CHRIST
To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory (Colossians 1:27).
In His prayer to the Father in John 17, the Lord Jesus made some of the most enthralling statements that encapsulate His love for us and oneness with us. Think about what He said in verse 22: “And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one.” This is huge! Jesus has given you glory.
Glory means beauty, excellence, success, greatness and prosperity. Glory includes health. The Bible says “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth” (3 John 1:2). God doesn’t want you sick; He wants you healthy all the time. That’s a life of glory.
1 Peter 1:3 says, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue.” Your life is for the glory of God.
Talking about you, the new creation, the Bible says: “Moreover whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and whom he called, them he also justiied: and whom he justiied, them he also gloriied" (Romans 8:30). You've been glorified! Many Christians have believed that God predestinated them called them and justified them; but not many know they've been glorified.
Manifest the glory of God in your job in your finances and your family. Every so often declare "I'm glorified in Christ. The dominion of sin, darkness and sickness is broken from my life. There’s joy in my life and my home. I walk in the glory of God always!” Blessed be God!
CONFESSION: I was born to reign and manifest the glory of the Kingdom of God in the earth. My life is the expression of divine beauty, excellence, success and greatness. I'm glorified in Christ; thus, I walk in health, prosperity, wholeness and wellness, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
