June 4 Evening Devotional | How Glorious! | Morning and Evening by Charles Spurgeon
Evening, June 4 | “Taken up in glory.” —1 Timothy 3:16 (NASB)
This Evening's Scripture Reading: 1 Timothy 3:14-16 (NASB)
These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly: But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth. And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Devotional Video Transcript:
We have seen our well-beloved Lord in the days of his flesh, humiliated and sore vexed; for he was “despised and forsaken of men, a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief.” (Isaiah 53:3) He whose brightness is as the morning wore the sackcloth of sorrow as his daily dress: shame was his mantle, and reproach was his vesture. Yet now, inasmuch as he has triumphed over all the powers of darkness upon the bloody tree, our faith beholds our King returning, robed in the splendor of victory.
How glorious must he have been in the eyes of seraphs, when a cloud received him out of mortal sight, and he ascended up to heaven! Now he wears the glory which he had with God before the earth ever was, and yet another glory above all — that which he has well earned in the fight against sin, death, and hell. As Victor, he wears the illustrious crown. Listen to how the song swells high! It is a new and sweeter song: “Worthy are You to take the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood ” (Revelation 5:9) He wears the glory of an Intercessor who can never fail, of a Prince who can never be defeated, of a Conqueror who has vanquished every foe, of a Lord who has the heart’s allegiance of every subject.
Jesus wears all the glory that the pomp of heaven can bestow upon him, which ten thousand times ten thousand angels can minister to him. You cannot with your utmost stretch of imagination conceive his exceeding greatness; yet there will be a further revelation of it when he shall descend from heaven in great power, with all the holy angels — “then He will sit on His glorious throne.” (Matthew 25:31) Oh, the splendor of that glory!
It will ravish his people’s hearts. Nor is this the close, for eternity shall sound his praise, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever!” (Psalm 45:6)
If you would joy in Christ’s glory hereafter, he must be glorious in your sight now. Is he so?
