YOU WILL "SEE" HIS GLORY WITH YOUR "OWN" EYES!!

DEPEND UPON HIS WORD AND YOU WILL "SEE" HIS GLORY WITH YOUR "OWN EYES!

“…Jesus said … "Did I not say to you that if you believe, you will see the glory of God?..." (John 11:40 KJV).

“…Jesus said … "Did I not say to you that if you believe (DEPEND UPON GOD'S WORD), you will see the glory of God?..." (John 11:40 KJV). “….To the intent, you may BELIEVE (DEPEND UPON HIS POWERFUL WORD)….” (John 11:15 KJV). “… that they may believe (DEPEND UPON) that thou hast sent me (YOUR WORD)…” (John 11:41-42 KJV). Therefore, “…believe (DEPEND UPON) the works (OF HIS HOLY SPIRIT)…” (John 10:38 NIV). 

The GLORY of God, in the raising of Lazarus, is a visual DISPLAY of his LOVING GOODNESS! You can “SEE” it with your very “OWN” eyes. It is a DISPLAY of his GLORY, WHICH IS the revelation of his divine presence and his HOLY goodness. “…the invisible [Spirit]…from the creation of the world …is clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made …” (Romans 1:20 KJV).

 In the book of Exodus, Moses asked God to SHOW him his GLORY. God displayed ALL his GOODNESS in front of him or in his presence. In Exodus, “…Moses said, “…show me your glory.” …The Lord said, “I will cause all my GOODNESS to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. … …” (Exodus 33:16-23 NIV). 

God’ caused “…all …[his]… GOODNESS to pass in front of …[Moses]…and …[he]… proclaim[ed]… [his]… name, the Lord (the word of god), in …[moses’]… presence. … …” (Exodus 33:16-23 NIV). 

Believer’s say: “…God is good ALL the time and ALL the time God is GOOD.”  The bible says:  “Thou are GOOD and doest GOOD…” (Psalm 119:68 KJV). HE "NEVER" STOPS BEING GOOD. EVEN WHEN YOU ARE GOING THROUGH SOMETHING. HE WILL SYMPATHIZE WITH YOU, CRY WITH YOU, AND COMFORT YOU. HE IS "ALWAYS" GOOD “…I am the Lord, I change NOT…” (Malachi 3:6 KJV). “…Great is his love toward us, and the faithfulness of the LORD endures forever. Praise the LORD” (Psalms 117:2 KJV). “…Thou are GOOD and doest GOOD…” (Psalm 119:68 KJV).

GOOD IS WHO GOD IS. IT IS AN INNATE PART OF HIS DIVINE CHARACTER! “…The lord is GOOD…” (Psalm 100:5 KJV). “…Oh how great is thy GOODNESS… (Psalm 31:19 KJV). “…He is GOOD…” (Psalm 107:1 KJV). “..The lord is GOOD…” (Nahum 1:7 KJV). “…GOOD and upright is the Lord…” (Psalm 25:8 KJV). “…For thou, Lord, is GOOD…” (Psalm 86:5 KJV). “…O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is GOOD… ” (Psalms 106:1 KJV).  “…O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is GOOD; for his mercy endureth for ever” (1 Chronicles…” 16:34 KJV). 

The type of displays of God’s GLORY, I’ve studied, are: the visible displays of his presence, the visual displays of his goodness, and the visual displays of his power.  Jesus Christ, the WORD OF GOD, was SENT to earth to display his presence, display his goodness, and tO demonstrate his power “ALL” for the GLORY of God. 

The visual displays or symbols of his GLORY are his “known” or “revealed” presence. “…The heavens declare the GLORY of God…” (Psalms 19:1 KJV).  ^“..And ye said, Behold, the Lord our God hath SHEWED us his GLORY and his greatness, and we have heard his voice out of the midst of the fire: we have SEEN this day that God doth talk with man, and he liveth…” (Dueteronomy 5:24 KJV). “It came even to pass, as … [they] praised the Lord, saying, For he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever: that then the house was filled with a cloud, even the house of the Lord; So that the priests could not stand to minister by reason of the cloud: for the GLORY of the Lord had filled the house of God…” (2 Chronicles 5:13-14 KJV). 

HE KEPT HIS WORD TO MARY AND MARTHA WHEN HE SAID: “… if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest SEE the GLORY of God?” (John 11:40 KJV). “…he that was dead came forth…” (John 11:43-43 KJV).

HIS SHOWED HIS GLORY TO HIS PEOPLE "ALL" THROUGH THE BIBLE.  “….The God of GLORY APPEARED unto our father Abraham…” (Acts 7:2 KJV). “…Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and SAW the GLORY of God…” (Acts 7:55 NIV).“And the temple was filled with smoke from the GLORY of God  … ”(Revelation 15:8 KJV). 

HIS GLORY IS HIS VERY PRESENCE THAT SHINES A LIGHT ON THE DARKEST PLACES!! “It shone with the GLORY of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal…” (Revelation 21:11 NIV). “And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the GLORY of God did lighten it, and the Lamb (JESUS) is the light thereof…” (Revelation 21:23 KJV).

HE REVEALS HIS PRESENCE, TO HIS PEOPLE, THROUGH SYMBOLS AND NATURE. “And [For 40 years] [God’s GLORY] went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night…Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the GLORY of the Lord filled the tabernacle.  So the cloud of the Lord was over the tabernacle by day, and fire was in the cloud by night, in the SIGHT of all the Israelites during all their travels…” (Exodus 13:21 KJV; Exodus 40: 35-38 NIV). 

EVERY DAY GOD'S PRESENCE IS WITNESSED IN THE HEAVENS. “The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people “SEE” HIS GLORY…” (Psalm 97:6 KJV). 

THE WORD OF GOD SAYS IF YOU DEPEND UPON HIS WORD (DON'T STOP, DO IT CONTINUALLY) YOU WILL "SEE" WITH YOUR "OWN" EYES HIS GLORY UPON YOUR SITUATIONS AND CIRCUMSTANCES, EVEN IF THEY "SEEM" DEAD!! “…Jesus(THE WORD) said … "Did I not say to you that if you believe (DEPEND UPON HIS WORD), you will see the glory of God
?..." (John 11:40 KJV).

“…he that was dead came forth…” (John 11:43-43 KJV).
