[The Glory Unveiled]
To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. [ Colossians 1:27 NIV ]
The believer’s knowledge of Christ floods their soul with the expectation of glory. Every believer has within them a treasure chest of hope that God wants the world to know about. As a believer, you have not been saved just to play safe, you have been saved to tell others about the hope of your salvation. The life of Jesus in us gives us an expectation of glory because when Jesus died, it didn’t end there, He rose from the dead into glory leaving us a picture/example of what kind of hope awaits us. The Lord Jesus Christ in the life of the believer gives them a hope of glory. The believer cannot and should not be confused about their end. Our end is the glory of God revealed; God’s glory is our future identity. We can accurately predict our tomorrow from the lens of Jesus’ earthly life. We have become ambassador of God’s kingdom, going about and making other people aware of the hope of God’s glory. Employing other people to have Christ as their Lord and Saviour so that they will have the same hope of glory when Christ comes to dwell in them. The world is in the dark about many things and God is trusting us to let the world see His glory in us. We cannot afford to disappoint God because the treasure chest is within us. We just have to open it up. God has chosen us in Christ as a royal priesthood to display the glory of His life through us. The life of Christ in us is an experience of the glory of God, so that we can broadcast this glorious experience with the world that does not know the Jesus. Are you making Jesus know where you are? Are people becoming more drawn to Jesus because you are showing them the glory in you?
