Podcasts about god glory

Luke 2:8-14Living BibleThat night some shepherds were in the fields outside the village, guarding their flocks of sheep.  Suddenly an angel appeared among them, and the landscape shone bright with the glory of the Lord. They were badly frightened, but the angel reassured them.“Don't be afraid!” he said. “I bring you the most joyful news ever announced, and it is for everyone! The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born tonight in Bethlehem! How will you recognize him? You will find a baby wrapped in a blanket,[b] lying in a manger!”Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others-the armies of heaven—praising God:“Glory to God in the highest heaven,” they sang,[c] “and peace on earth for all those pleasing him.”Imagine for a moment that you're a shepherd back in the B.C. days. It's just another cold, lonely, pitch-dark night, sitting by the fire, watching the sheep. Then, suddenly, a blinding light pierces through the blackness, and you're face to face with an angel. He sees the terror in your eyes, knows you think that he has come to kill you because of your sin and low position, so then he declares, “Don't be scared. I have good news of great joy for all people.”  Disbelief overwhelms reality as you think, “Why me? And why here? … Aren't there some important people somewhere to do this? After all, we're just shepherds.”Shepherds, as a stereotype, had a reputation for being low-lives, men of bad reputation. They didn't observe the ceremonial law and were not religious men. They were so known for stealing and dishonesty that their testimony would not be considered reliable enough to testify in court. Think about that… God chose first to announce He was here to these men of bad reputation. He made His birth announcement to the least of these, setting a pattern for His Son's ministry.On that night, that holy night, everything changed and the broken, rejected, lowest of society were the ones that God chose to tell first. The words of the beautiful song, Oh Holy Night, capture the essence of that encounter.As we finish our time together - let me read you the words for this beautiful song. O holy night, the stars are brightly shining, It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth; Long lay the world in sin and error pining, 'Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth. A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices, For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn; Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices! O night divine! O night when Christ was born.Father, we thank you for this time of joyful waiting. May the hope and joy of this season fill our hearts and make us living signs of your love for a world that hungers for your peace. Immanuel, God with us. Amen

Why should we give God glory?Michael Pearl delivers a daily Gospel message from the Book of Romans.Download the FREE Romans commentary: ⁠https://nogreaterjoy.org/shop/romans-...⁠Am I saved? ⁠https://nogreaterjoy.org/shop/am-i-sa...⁠

What is the driving force that guides what we do? Our chief end must be to do all to the glory of God. If we fail to give God His rightly deserved glory, we will fail to do the will of God.

Today Frank explains what Paul meant  in his letter to the Corinthians concerning the equality in the relationship of men and woman with God and how the world and other believers hearing the Gospel might judge us.   Frank Spalding and the preaching team at Lincoln Hills Christian Church welcomes all those seeking to know more about the Real Jesus and how to be an active disciple.

Ephesians 2.4-7   3 The Opening Prayer The night has passed and the day lies open before us;  let us pray with one heart and mind.    Silence may be kept. As we rejoice in the gift of this new day,  so may the light of your presence, O God,  set our hearts on fire with love for you;  now and for ever.  Amen.   4 The Psalms as appointed. A pause is observed after each. Psalm     5 At the end of the (last) pause there may follow Lord, our God, our Creator, Redeemer, and Sanctifier: we ask you to cleanse us from all hypocrisy, to unite us to our fellow men and women by the bonds of peace and love, and to confirm us in holiness; now and for ever.  Amen.      6 One or two Readings from the Bible as appointed.   The Old Testament Reading today is… 2 Samuel 11. 1-21 1In the spring of the year, the time when kings go out to battle, David sent Joab with his officers and all Israel with him; they ravaged the Ammonites, and besieged Rabbah. But David remained at Jerusalem. 2It happened, late one afternoon, when David rose from his couch and was walking about on the roof of the king's house, that he saw from the roof a woman bathing; the woman was very beautiful. 3David sent someone to inquire about the woman. It was reported, “This is Bathsheba daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite.” 4So David sent messengers to get her, and she came to him, and he lay with her. (Now she was purifying herself after her period.) Then she returned to her house. 5The woman conceived; and she sent and told David, “I am pregnant.” 6So David sent word to Joab, “Send me Uriah the Hittite.” And Joab sent Uriah to David. 7When Uriah came to him, David asked how Joab and the people fared, and how the war was going. 8Then David said to Uriah, “Go down to your house, and wash your feet.” Uriah went out of the king's house, and there followed him a present from the king. 9But Uriah slept at the entrance of the king's house with all the servants of his lord, and did not go down to his house. 10When they told David, “Uriah did not go down to his house,” David said to Uriah, “You have just come from a journey. Why did you not go down to your house?” 11Uriah said to David, “The ark and Israel and Judah remain in booths; and my lord Joab and the servants of my lord are camping in the open field; shall I then go to my house, to eat and to drink, and to lie with my wife? As you live, and as your soul lives, I will not do such a thing.” 12Then David said to Uriah, “Remain here today also, and tomorrow I will send you back.” So Uriah remained in Jerusalem that day. On the next day, 13David invited him to eat and drink in his presence and made him drunk; and in the evening he went out to lie on his couch with the servants of his lord, but he did not go down to his house. David Has Uriah Killed 14In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab, and sent it by the hand of Uriah. 15In the letter he wrote, “Set Uriah in the forefront of the hardest fighting, and then draw back from him, so that he may be struck down and die.” 16As Joab was besieging the city, he assigned Uriah to the place where he knew there were valiant warriors. 17The men of the city came out and fought with Joab; and some of the servants of David among the people fell. Uriah the Hittite was killed as well. 18Then Joab sent and told David all the news about the fighting; 19and he instructed the messenger, “When you have finished telling the king all the news about the fighting, 20then, if the king's anger rises, and if he says to you, ‘Why did you go so near the city to fight? Did you not know that they would shoot from the wall? 21Who killed Abimelech son of Jerubbaal? Did not a woman throw an upper millstone on him from the wall, so that he died at Thebez? Why did you go so near the wall?' then you shall say, ‘Your servant Uriah the Hittite is dead too.' ”   Hear the word of the Lord. Thanks be to God. The New Testament Reading today is… John 8. 48-59 48The Jews answered him, “Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?” 49Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me. 50Yet I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it and he is the judge. 51Very truly, I tell you, whoever keeps my word will never see death.” 52The Jews said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and so did the prophets; yet you say, ‘Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.' 53Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets also died. Who do you claim to be?” 54Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, he of whom you say, ‘He is our God,' 55though you do not know him. But I know him; if I would say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know him and I keep his word. 56Your ancestor Abraham rejoiced that he would see my day; he saw it and was glad.” 57Then the Jews said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham?” 58Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, before Abraham was, I am.” 59So they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple. Hear the message of Christ. Thanks be to God.   7 The Canticle, A Song of the Blessed Blessed are the poor in spirit:  for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  Blessed are those who mourn:  for they shall be comforted.  Blessed are the meek:  for they shall inherit the earth.  Blessed are those who hunger  and thirst for what is right:  for they shall be satisfied.  Blessed are the merciful:  for mercy shall be shown to them.  Blessed are the pure in heart:  for they shall see God.  Blessed are the peacemakers:  for they shall be called the children of God.  Blessed are those who are persecuted  for righteousness' sake:  for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.  Matthew 5.3–10      8 The belief and principle is said I believe in God, creator of heaven and earth, whose love and merciful forgiveness endures everlasting.

SERIES: Epiphany MomentsWhere in the world does one find lasting glory? Conquering nations? Championships? Awards? Any glory one finds in these is fleeting and misleading. Such achievements fade and are forgotten, only to be replaced by the next conqueror, champion, or award winner. But there is a glory that endures. And, while it isn't in you, you will find that it is for you, if you know where to look.

May 01, 2000 Sydney -

Luke 2:8-14Living Bible That night some shepherds were in the fields outside the village, guarding their flocks of sheep.  Suddenly an angel appeared among them, and the landscape shone bright with the glory of the Lord. They were badly frightened, but the angel reassured them. “Don't be afraid!” he said. “I bring you the most joyful news ever announced, and it is for everyone! The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born tonight in Bethlehem! How will you recognize him? You will find a baby wrapped in a blanket,[b] lying in a manger!” Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others-the armies of heaven—praising God: “Glory to God in the highest heaven,” they sang,[c] “and peace on earth for all those pleasing him.” Imagine for a moment that you're a shepherd back in the B.C. days. It's just another cold, lonely, pitch-dark night, sitting by the fire, watching the sheep. Then, suddenly, a blinding light pierces through the blackness, and you're face to face with an angel. He sees the terror in your eyes, knows you think that he has come to kill you because of your sin and low position, so then he declares, “Don't be scared. I have good news of great joy for all people.”  Disbelief overwhelms reality as you think, “Why me? And why here? … Aren't there some important people somewhere to do this? After all, we're just shepherds.” Shepherds, as a stereotype, had a reputation for being low-lives, men of bad reputation. They didn't observe the ceremonial law and were not religious men. They were so known for stealing and dishonesty that their testimony would not be considered reliable enough to testify in court. Think about that… God chose first to announce He was here to these men of bad reputation. He made His birth announcement to the least of these, setting a pattern for His Son's ministry. On that night, that holy night, everything changed and the broken, rejected, lowest of society were the ones that God chose to tell first.  The words of the beautiful song, Oh Holy Night, capture the essence of that encounter. As we finish our time together - let me read you the words for this beautiful song.  O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,  It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth;  Long lay the world in sin and error pining,  'Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.  A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,  For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;  Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!  O night divine! O night when Christ was born. Father, we thank you for this time of joyful waiting. May the hope and joy of this season fill our hearts and make us living signs of your love for a world that hungers for your peace. Immanuel, God with us. Amen

For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder. These will be his royal titles: … “The Prince of Peace.”~Isaiah 9:6 The Living Bible“This very day in David's town your Savior was born – Christ the Lord!” …Suddenly a great army of heaven's angels appeared with the angel, singing praises to God: “Glory to God in the highest heaven, and peace on earth to those with whom he is pleased!”~Luke 2:11,13-14 Good News Bible“Blessed be the Lord God,… because he has visited us and brought redemption to his people…Our God is merciful and tender. He will cause the bright dawn of salvation to rise on us and to shine from heaven … to guide our steps into the path of peace.”~Luke 1:68,78-79 Amplified Bible/Good News BibleJesus is here to claim our hearts and give us reassurance.  Allow him to be in your heart today and every day of your life.  You will know it when that happens.  Merry Christmas.

SummaryIn this conversation, Danielle Strickland and James explore the themes of the Gospels, particularly focusing on the book of John. They discuss the unique characteristics of each Gospel, the concept of the Cosmic Christ, and the radical identification of Christ with human suffering. The dialogue delves into the significance of creation, the essence of God as love, and the importance of seeing Jesus as the ultimate revelation of God. They emphasize the need to rediscover Jesus beyond traditional interpretations and to understand the profound implications of His incarnation.Takeaways* Each Gospel has its unique style and message.* John's introduction is a poetic reflection on creation.* The concept of the Cosmic Christ connects all matter to Jesus.* Christ's incarnation signifies God's solidarity with the oppressed.* The light of Christ brings order to chaos and new beginnings.* All people are created in the image of God, challenging hierarchical views.* God's essence is love, as revealed through Jesus.* Understanding Jesus is key to understanding God.* The Bible points to Jesus as the Word of God.* Rediscovering Jesus can transform our understanding of scripture.Titles* The Gospels Unveiled: A Journey Through John* The Cosmic Christ: Light in DarknessSound Bites* "John's like an art film."* "The word became flesh."* "God is love."Chapters00:00Exploring the Gospels: A Unique Perspective03:21The Cosmic Christ: Understanding John 106:21Radical Identification: Christ and Human Suffering09:15Creation and New Beginnings: The Light of Christ12:17The Essence of God: Glory and Revelation in Christ15:08The Nature of God: Love and the Incarnation18:03Rediscovering Jesus: The Word of God21:04The Power of Poetry: Advent Reflections32:00lifestyle-intro-low-long.wav Get full access to Right Side Up: Danielle Strickland at daniellestrickland.substack.com/subscribe

Transformative Truth:  The God of all grace is worthy of all glory. THE SETTING (v. 4a) THE SALUTATION (vv. 4b-8) • Grace and peace from God • Glory and praise to God The Seven-Fold Description of Christ "the faithful witness" "the firstborn of the dead" "the ruler of the kings on earth" He "loves us" "And has freed us from our sins by his blood" "and made us a kingdom, priests to his God and our Father" "He is coming with the clouds" The God of all grace is worthy of all glory.

All of life is all for Jesus.  This should be the focus of every moment of our lives. How would that change the way we exist?  Would we be more joyful and at peace?  Paul is trying to get us to reframe the way we live our lives.1 Cor 10:31 So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.

The power of unity!

Paul has been unfolding “the gospel of God” since the opening sentence of this magisterial book. At the heart of the gospel is God Himself. The saved are not the centrality of salvation, God is. Grace is not the ultimate good, glory is. The gospel is glorious primarily because it is the only means for sinners to enjoy the God who is central and supreme. This is seen clearest in the climax of Paul's unparalleled explanation. Chapters of gospel reasoning mount to fuel a white-hot eruption of praise to God. Here revealed is a compendium of the glory of God, and it is our highest delight!

How can unity bring God glory? We often believe we bring God glory by receiving what He's giving us, by what we do for Him, or in getting His life “correct.” But does this bring Him glory? God desires our relationship over transaction; presence over performance; community over correctness: because this glorifies Him.

Pastor Caleb J. Kinney Sunday Morning 1/7/24

Luke 2:8-14Living Bible That night some shepherds were in the fields outside the village, guarding their flocks of sheep.  Suddenly an angel appeared among them, and the landscape shone bright with the glory of the Lord. They were badly frightened, but the angel reassured them. “Don't be afraid!” he said. “I bring you the most joyful news ever announced, and it is for everyone! The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born tonight in Bethlehem! How will you recognize him? You will find a baby wrapped in a blanket,[b] lying in a manger!” Suddenly, the angel was joined by a vast host of others-the armies of heaven—praising God: “Glory to God in the highest heaven,” they sang,[c] “and peace on earth for all those pleasing him.” Imagine for a moment that you're a shepherd back in the B.C. days. It's just another cold, lonely, pitch-dark night, sitting by the fire, watching the sheep. Then, suddenly, a blinding light pierces through the blackness, and you're face to face with an angel. He sees the terror in your eyes, knows you think that he has come to kill you because of your sin and low position, so then he declares, “Don't be scared. I have good news of great joy for all people.”  Disbelief overwhelms reality as you think, “Why me? And why here? … Aren't there some important people somewhere to do this? After all, we're just shepherds.” Shepherds, as a stereotype, had a reputation for being low-lives, men of bad reputation. They didn't observe the ceremonial law and were not religious men. They were so known for stealing and dishonesty that their testimony would not be considered reliable enough to testify in court. Think about that… God chose first to announce He was here to these men of bad reputation. He made His birth announcement to the least of these, setting a pattern for His Son's ministry. On that night, that holy night, everything changed and the broken, rejected, lowest of society were the ones that God chose to tell first.  The words of the beautiful song, Oh Holy Night, capture the essence of that encounter. As we finish our time together - let me read you the words for this beautiful song.  O holy night, the stars are brightly shining,  It is the night of the dear Saviour's birth;  Long lay the world in sin and error pining,  'Till he appeared and the soul felt its worth.  A thrill of hope the weary world rejoices,  For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn;  Fall on your knees, Oh hear the angel voices!  O night divine! O night when Christ was born. Father, we thank you for this time of joyful waiting. May the hope and joy of this season fill our hearts and make us living signs of your love for a world that hungers for your peace. Immanuel, God with us. Amen

Some circumstances just don't seem glorious. Our health is elusive, our work is mundane, and our suffering is relentless. Pastor Lutzer describes four ways God can be glorified in every circumstance of our lives. No matter what comes each day, we can wake up focused on our chief purpose in life: the glory of God.

We've all been there. You're on one path that you feel like you've been called to do and then as you're on that path, you feel led to go down a different path. And here's where the hard part comes. What do you do in that moment when you feel led to go a different direction?  It's so easy to dismiss it and say it's a distraction from the original direction God was leading you down. It's also easy to start the whole mindset drama where you're asking “Is it really God or is it the enemy or is it just what I want to do?” All of these are valid questions and definitely things you should pray about in a situation like that.  But I want to encourage you to also think about an alternative. What if this is exactly where God is leading you and He wants you to go on this journey because it'll ultimately lead to Him getting the glory in a way that you can't even imagine? Today on the podcast, you'll get encouragement for how to approach it when you feel like you're wanting to pivot (again) and you're not sure what to think about it.  I hope you're encouraged by this episode and that you continue shifting your mindset toward Jesus so you can do all that He is calling you to do.
