For the
earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the
waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14).
The Lord
testified of David that he was a man after His own heart (Acts 13:22). When you
study about David, you’ll discover he was so passionate about the glory of God.
The pursuit of his soul was to have and to see the glory of God. In Psalm
63:1-2, he said, “O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul
thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where
no water is; To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the
sanctuary.”
What a
declaration! He described the land as “a dry and thirsty land, where no water
is.” “Water,” in this context, typifies the Spirit of God. “A dry and thirsty
land” typifies a place that’s destitute of the Spirit of God; a desolate land.
David saw in the visions of God that in the sanctuary of God, there’s glory,
and there’s power; so he yearned to see the same glory in a land destitute of
the Spirit of God.
That tells
us something; it makes no difference what obtains in the city or nation where
you live or the demons in that particular region that hold sway over men’s
lives; you can seek the manifestation of the glory of God in that place. It
doesn’t matter the wickedness that has festered or the hunger, depravity,
terror, and fear that have kept men in bondage; in that “dry and thirsty” land,
you can establish the glory of God.
You do this
through intercession and proclamation of the Word. Get filled with the Spirit
and proclaim the Word over such countries, regions, cities, and towns. Don’t be
quiet; keep at it until the anointing wells up in you to proclaim the Word of
God that’ll change things. Under that unction, declare with boldness that the
glory of God in the Gospel of Christ fills that land. Soon enough, the light of
God’s Word that brings salvation, deliverance, and prosperity will shine
brightly in those hitherto dark regions, and there’ll be a great harvest of
souls. Hallelujah!
PRAYER: Dear
Father, thank you for the glorious light of your Gospel that’s beaming
intensely on the dark places of the earth, bringing salvation, deliverance,
prosperity, and imparting righteousness to the spirits of men. I declare that
your glory covers the earth, lighting men’s lives to do your will, in Jesus’
Name. Amen.
FURTHER
STUDY: Psalm 74:20-21 - Remember your covenant promises, for the land is full
of darkness and violence! 21 Don’t let the downtrodden be
humiliated again. Instead, let the poor and needy praise your name.
Isaiah
60:1-2 - “Arise, Jerusalem !
Let your light shine for all to see. For the glory of the Lord rises to shine
on you. 2 Darkness as black as night covers all the nations of
the earth, but the glory of the Lord rises and appears over you.
