THE MANIFEST PRESENCE OF GOD

INTRODUCTION

God has concluded His plans to exterminate the government of Satan on earth and establish His eternal kingdom, but this programme needs human vessels to be carried out. Man is an honourable and indispensable regent of God on earth. God’s manifest presence can only be revealed on earth through Him. The availability and readiness of man enforces the will of God on earth. God’s idea can only be part of the earth when it becomes man’s idea. Exterminating the kingdom of darkness requires the manifest presence of God and God can only unveil Him presence on earth through men. What God will achieve on earth will always be controlled by the self-will of men. The glory of God can only be revealed on earth through His house in men. The glory Moses expected God to reveal in the midst of Israel was eventually revealed through him. The glory that appeared on the face of Moses which made it impossible for Israel to behold His face was produced from him. The primary assignment of the indwelling Christ in the man Jesus was to reveal the trapped glory in Him. Everyone was born with a kind of glory that he must reveal. It is the revealed glory of men that declares God’s manifest presence. When men build the stronghold of divine brightness, God manifests in His glory. The strength of God’s presence is determined by the sacrificial consecration of men. If God can’t be introduced on earth except through the revealed glory of men; we need to take advantage of our humanity to crown God’s divinity on earth. Man is as important as his usefulness to God and humanity. The humanity of men is a glorious humanity because that is the only means through which God can introduce His glory on earth. Man is a fortified city and a terrestrial reservoir of celestial glory and praise. Whatever that happens to man will always influence what God will achieve on earth. God’s programme on earth stalls when those He will use to achieve them are ignorant or willingly refuse to make themselves available. Those who reveal God’s glory on earth share in it. The messianic glory Jesus Christ revealed on earth was the glory He had with God from the foundation of the world. As the man Jesus revealed the indwelling Christ, He introduced the glory of God on earth. The revealed glory in Christ had the manifest power of God that healed the sick, opened blind eyes, delivered the oppressed and raised the death. There is power in the revealed glory of Jesus Christ. Declaring the spiritual kingdom of God was made possible through the revealed glory of Jesus Christ. Men are exposed to shame and despise when the trapped glory in them is abandoned. We are as important as what God achieves through us. Unveiling the trapped glory in us is cumbersome and sometimes laborious but we must not abandon the praise of our lives because of the pain of revealing it. God honours the price men pay to be who they are meant to be. Jesus Christ endured the mutilation
of Calvary because of the glory He was meant to reveal. God sustains men’s lives and value in the revealed glory of their lives. Heaven is a stronghold where God hides Himself in His revealed glory. The revealed glory of every man is the hiding place of his life. God announces His presence on earth through the revealed glory of men. If man is practically indispensable to the affairs of the earth, we must not ignore all that God can achieve through us.
