EXPOSITION ON 2ND SAMUEL 6 by Claus
Subtitled WHEN MEN TOOK HIS GLORY TO THEMSELVES

There are those who carry the glory of God


Everything in nature has God representing in it , something of God, a touch. Even the leafy has God representing in it, that is why we can look at nature and praise God. WHAT DO YOU SAY? THAT GOD WON'T LEAVE HIS MARK ON HIS CREATION IN DESIGN AND TAGS LIKE OUR FAMOUS FASHION DESIGNERS LIKE TOMMY HILFIGER?


In a vision, the Lord gave me  revelation, I saw a leaf with something like a small water-glo at its tip. Turning, I saw many things in nature with those tags, God won't let men take his glory to themselves!


Oh, how we feel proud when we wear our lacoste shirt with the Hilfiger brand! or use apple phones, even though sometimes old type, we feel proud. We are God's handiwork and its not now that we are going to be! WE ARE!


Yet, there are three people and only one among them shall really exhibit the glory of God; please take notice, when I use glory here it means the power of God plus manifestation in everything that we do not only in preaching.

The first person is the one who seeks to lift the trophy of God so desperately that they use foul means. They are every where, its either juju or bribery or destroying someone for what they have. They have missed! This is the commonest way to achieve but we toil because we want to achieve it the right way.

The second group is those who want to exhibit the glory but they see it as a means to an end; they want to use the glory to make money and live their fantasy. These are self serving people and don't have God's vision at heart. To the natural eye it seem they are working for God but they are doing it because of their stomach. Were God to see things from the outward they would have deceived him. These people can be very rich to the detriment of the heavenly vision; they pilfer resources from the mission like the way some workers steal from their work place. Lord have mercy! The judgement day is on the way!

The Last group are those who see God's work as an end in itself, they don't want anything except achieve for God. Jesus said you can't serve God and money at the same time; we should have a single eye, one purpose, so that our whole life will be full of light without darkness. You see, darkness comes in when there is a conflict of interest.

Moses is part of this last group, he left Egyptian Presidency to lead God's people, Noah used all his resources to build an ark to further God's mission, Apostle Paul left what he had been trained for and all the links, a spiritual leadership to go to the gentiles, Jesus his left heavenly throne to save the world!
Where do you belong?
Don't take his glory to yourself please!


Your level has changed!
