Bible Question: What is the Glory of the Lord or God's Glory. What does it mean when it is said, Let the Glory of the Lord fall upon us? |
Bible Answer: Hi Something of the meaning of this is brought out by the glory Psalm (29). In that Psalm the glory of the Lord is depicted in terms of a huge, violent and memorable storm that shook the whole of Palestine and its surrounds. It was so powerful that it reminded the Psalmist of both creation ('the voice of the Lord' repeated seven times, compare 'and God said') and the Flood (the Lord sat enthroned over the Flood). He opens by calling on the angelic court to witness it and through it proclaim the glory of the Lord (verses 1-2), and that glory is then revealed in awesome fashion. And the idea is that it reveals that the Lord of glory still reigns in the heavens. But it is the final verse that is especially relevant. For this mighty storm was not to be seen as a judgment (lthough it no doubt was that), so much as an indication that God would strengthen His people and would (paradoxically) give them peace (verse 11), while they in the Temple cried 'glory!' (verse 9). This was the glory of the Lord falling on them indeed. But for us the glory of the Lord falls on us in another way, for in 2 Corinthians 3.18 we, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being changed into His likeness from glory into glory, even as by the Lord, the Spirit.
