We remember in the book of John the eleventh chapter, Jesus said to Martha (whose brother Lazarus was four (4) days dead) that if she could believe, she would see the glory of God (John 11:21-40). Refering to the glory of God, Jesus was talking about dead Lazarous coming back to life. In otherwords God’s glory in your life is that miracle you desire to see or your desired change of story which seems impossible by all human estimations. But, truth is what is deemed impossible with man is very possible with God (Mark 10:27).
That said, what are the steps to seeing God’s glory manifest in one’s life? To experience God’s glory in any aspect of your life, do the following:
#1. Find the Word Solution for your Challenge
Recognize that there is a word solution to every problem/concern of life. This is because God upholds/controls all things by the power of His word as revealed in Hebrews 1:3. All things created were created by the word (John 1:1-3). Therefore, the Word is the final authority on any issue of life. So, whenever confronted with any challnge of life, consult the word for answers. Find out what it has to say on that issue confronting you. Whatever the word says is final!
#2. Believe It
Whatever be the word’s recommended solution to the problem at hand, believe it. Believe whatever the Word of God says concerning your case. Believing God’s Word is believing God, and believing God commits His integrity for performance. As it is written:
“Blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord” (Luke 1:45)
Believing is agreeing in your heart that what the word says is true and final.
Next thing to do is
#3. Say It and Say It Long
Believing what God has said is what we call faith. Now the evidence of faith or believing is proclaiming or saying what God has said. For instance, if the issue at hand is in the area of healing, God’s word in Isaiah 53:5 says “He [Christ] was wounded for our transgressions…and with His stripes we are healed”
The word also says: “Let the weak say I am strong” - Joel 3:10
Therefore, instead of saying or confessing sickness, you say “I am strong” and you keep saying that in order to see your desired change of story in health.
Now the rule here is that you say it boldy and you say it for a long time. You will not say it just once for the situation to change. You will have to persist in saying it untill your story changes. In Acts 14:3, concerning some of Christ’s desciples who manifested the glory of God, the word syas:
“Long time therefore abode they speaking boldy in the Lord, which gave testimony unto the word of His grace and granted signs and wonders to be done by their hands”
In otherwords, the disciples kept speaking bolding in the Lord and they did so for a long time, and then suddenly signs and wonders errupted, thereby establishing their desired testimonies or change of stories. So that is the way to go. Whatever you have found from the word concerning your case, you must keep saying it and boldly so untill your desire becomes a living testimony for all to see. Say it in the face of every devil. It may attract mockery when you say it, but keep saying it and soon, your testimony will silence your mockers.
Just like more than two (2) decades ago, God’s servant my spiritual father Bishop David Oyedepo found the secrtes to kingdom wealth and began to declare in his very state of poverty “I cannot be poor”--he was bitterly mocked but today the mockers have gone into hiding as the proofs are too obvious that even the blind can see.
What Happens when you speak like this?
A. Saying what you believe forces the enemy to bow
Psalm 18:44-45
[44] As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.
[45] The strangers shall fade away, and be afraid out of their close places.
Who are the strangers? Every situation or anything happening in your life contrary to God’s word is a stranger. Such as sickness, frustration and failure among others. Scripture above says that when you begin to boldly declare the word that you believe, the strangers will disappear. So the healing you did not have is the healing you did not say (in otherwords, the sickness you have is the sickness you did not tell to go away). The prosperity you did not have is the prosperity you did not say. And the success/breakthrough you did not have is the success/breakthrough you did not say.
Finally,
Step #4. Give God Thanks
Give God thanks ahead of the manifestation of your heart desire. Let’s confirm this point with just two scriptural examples.
First, Jesus at the tomb of Lazarus gave God thanks before Lazarus came back to life (see John 11:40-44)
Second, before Jesus fed the 5000 people with the 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes, he gave thanks to God and afterwords the food multiplied supernaturally (see John 6:1-14).
Therefore, make it a habit to always give God thanks ahead of the manifestation of your heart desire. Thanksgiving is faith in action and faith always moves God to fulfill His word (See Romans 4:16-22).
Now go ahead and follow these four (4) simple steps heralded above and manifest God’s glory in your life. It’s your turn to see the glory of God!!
Meanwhile, it all begins with establishing a relationship with God by receiving His son Jesus Christ into your life as Lord and Saviour. Scripture says:
But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God… (John 1:12)
Therefore, If you want Jesus in your life, Please say this simple prayer:
I believe that Jesus is the Son of God and He shed His precious blood for my sins. Today, I confess Him as Lord and Saviour. Thank you Lord Jesus for saving me!
Amen.
Congratulations! if you said that prayer. The Word of God says you are now a new creature and old things are passed away. All things are become new (2 Corinthians 5:17). In other-words, God will never call your past life (sins/faults) to remembrance. They are totally forgiven and forgotten. Check this:
I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. (Isaiah 43:25)
For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more (Hebrews 8:12)
If you have said this prayer, we encourage you to get into a bible based church near you where you can grow in the Lord (1st Peter 2:2 and 2nd Samuel 7:10). You can receive more inspiration by connecting through our various social media handles below:
