God Gives Glory
Series The 1689 Confession
It is interesting to note that even as the Lord God is a sun and shield to His people, He also will therefore give grace and glory. For the Lord God to give grace to His people, Jesus Christ had to suffer and die and be raised from the dead to purchase all the blessings of our salvation and our transformation from being a sinner to being one of His saints. Then when the Sun of Righteousness arose with healing in His wings, He would shine His glorious light into the darkness of the sinner’s heart and thus they would understand their need of Him, and His grace. What does it mean that the Lord will give glory? He gives glory in showing both sinners and saints the excellency of all that He does for them by His grace. There is the glory of His strength, His wisdom, His power, His love, His justice, and His mercy which is seen in His grace. Satan tries to blind and put a veil over the glory of Christ’s Person and His grace, but in salvation God makes this grace irresistible to the sinner; opening the eyes of His heart to understand.
