The word Glory literally means great, heavy or weighty.  It is is used often in a figurative sense to mean significant, important, noteworthy, impressive or severe.  Chris Brannon continues in our Foundations series by speaking on the Glory of God.  The glory of God is the manifest beauty of his holiness.  Chris explains to us how we see and know the glory of God.  We can see His glory through the majestic beauty and splendor of creation, through His holiness and in the person of Jesus Christ.  He then talks about the implications of God’s glory for us.  Christ is glorified in you when He is more precious to you than all that life can give or death can take away.

He is glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him.  If that is true, then there is no conflict between your greatest exhilaration and God’s greatest glorification.  In fact, not only is there no conflict between your happiness and God’s glory, but His glory shines in your happiness when your happiness is in Him!  See God’s glory in the person of Jesus Christ.
