“And because of the cloud, the priests were not able to continue ministering, for the glory of the LORD filled God’s temple.” - 2 Chronicles 5:14

“A man can no more diminish God’s glory by refusing to worship Him than a lunatic can put out the sun by scribbling the word darkness on the walls of his cell.” - C.S. Lewis

What would happen at the next worship service at your church if no one could perform their duties? How would the congregation respond if the choir suddenly couldn’t sing or the ushers found their feet stuck to the floor? What would your deacons think if the pastor couldn’t open his Bible and give a sermon?

Can we even imagine the amazing worship that must have occurred when the glory of God filled the temple to the point that no one could do their church jobs? Is i possible to achieve that kind of infilling in our churches today? Are we ready to accept so much of god’s glory that we can’t have a regular church service?

Lord, may we be ready to receive the eight of Your glory as we worship You.
