We have seen people's glory fade away after their death. King Solomon's glory has a good history today. What we should desire is a lasting glory that roes not fade away. This kind of glory can only be gotten in the presence of God. O Lord my God show me your glory.
We need the glory of God for greater transformation to take place in our life. Going through the Bible, those that saw the glory of God testified about what they saw, and what they saw kept sustain them even to the point of death. Let's start from Moses, his first encounter was with a burning bush, the glory of God was revealed to him and from that place Moses become a great man among the children of Israel and never missed the presence of God - Exodus 3:1-6.
For the children of Israel to know the Lord their God, God has to visit them in His glory. He came down in His glory, the earth quake, there were thunders and lightings, the cloud covered the mount and the device of the trumpet sounding exceeding loud and great fear came upon the people what a mighty experience. These people were led by the glory of God for forty years. What a wonderful experience that they dinned in the glory of God, they saw the mighty acts of God and His wonders were revealed unto them in different ways." Lord we want to see nothing but your Glory " - Exodus 19:16-19.
When king Solomon was dedicating the temples he built for the name of the Lord God, for God to accept and allow His name to remain in the temple He descended on the temple and the people saw His glory that the priest were not able to enter and carry out their duties again."Lord we are thirsty for nothing but your glory " - 2 Chronicles 5:14-15.
What then can we say about the report of the prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel and others who saw the glory of the Almighty God? The truth is that no mouth can explain in detaitgenhe glory of God. Do you want to see and witness in fullness the glory of this Almighty God? Christ is the glory of God. When He was on earth living among His people no body knew what He carries until the day He was transfigured before three of His disciples (Matthew 17:1-8) what a wonderful experiences to see Christ in His heavenly body Peter declared that it will bgloryd to remain there because of what he saw. What then can we say about the experience of the Apostles? Saul who later became Paul was called into the glory of Christ and He became a wonderful witness of Christ. He even spent some of his time in third heaven with the angels and in the glory of the Almighty - Acts 9:1-9, 2 Corinthians 12:2-4. Brother Stephen at the point of death saw nothing but Christ in His glory - Acts 7:55-56. Brother John (the beloved) saw the vision of heaven and the things that will happen at the later time was revealed unto him. He saw the glory of the four beast, the glory of the twenty four elders and the glory of the angels in heaven but all these are nothing compare with the glory of Him that sit upon the throne. - Revelation 4:1-11.
In conclusion, looking at Moses, he didn't ask for honour, or power, or authority but to see the glory of God, he was not satisfied with what he had seen before but wanted more, and in reply God said you cannot see my face. Moses wanted to see God and to see God you must be in His presence. After Moses saw the back view of God, he never stayed away from the presence of God. O Lord my God show me your glory. So Brethren let us desire thethe presence of God to continue in His glory.
