GRAIL STARS - PART 2

TUESDAY 25 FEBRUARY 2025

In Psalm 122:1, Davidic inspired utterance reads, "I was glad when they said to me, "Let us go to the house of the LORD" (NIV). Being glad as a result of where you are going to, tells a lot about the enhancing impact and empowering glory of the Kingdom stars in the presence of God. Something unusual that brings an indelible sense of gladness - happens in the midst of the saints when they gather together as gods, and that comes as a result of beholding the glory of God. Hallelujah!

Reference: 1st Corinthians 15:41 New King James Version (NKJV)

"There is one glory of the sun, another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differs from another star in glory."

For one star differs from another star in glory. Where exactly do stars steadily make contact with experiential knowledge of this glory? In the house of God, where His eternal presence is eminently made manifest. And today's article is still part of the introductory structure of this topic.

Many wise Christians have a history of being in the right church on Sunday morning, where the Spirit of God is present. Why is it important to be in church on Sunday morning and in church weekly activities? The Kingdom stars are glorified in the presence of God, just like the Lord Jesus said to the Almighty Father, "And now, Father, glorify Me in Your presence with the glory I had with You before the world existed" (John 17:5 NIV). In the presence of God, we gain and believe the same eternal truthfulness, and as we get immersed in His glorious presence, we are being glorified as Kingdom stars. In a nutshell, by beholding the glory of the Lord, we are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another, by the empowering influence of the Spirit.

So it is of paramount importance to acknowledge that each Kingdom star differs from another star in glory, which is not about differing in form of physical appearance, or in form of race or tribe, or in form of human-based skills and values, meaning that the glory of God is the main reason for any notable Kingdom manifestation or exploit that yields divinely-inspired results through the saints. Now if it is true that each Kingdom star differs from another star in "GLORY", then the glory of God is the pinnacle of wise understanding of what is ephemeral, and that which is eternal. The glory of the Kingdom stars is mainly eternal, and therefore it makes their Christian lives the very manifestation of divine identity in Christ, as they grow from strength to strength in their faith walk.

The wisdom of God's glory at work in your life grants a profound understanding of your spiritual existence and mega possibilities, beyond any limitations. It is this wisdom that inspires us to go for the special abilities the Spirit gives. To that effect, Pauline epistolary expression numbered as 1st Corinthians 14:1 reads, "Follow the way of love and eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit, especially prophecy" (ESV). Why must you be earnestly ambitious for the best of spiritual gifts? Because of the atoning price that Jesus paid for you to obtain them. Stay tuned for part 3. Shalom!
