The Radiance of God’s Glory
In Hebrews chapter 1, verse 3, scripture tells us:
"The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact expression of his nature, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high."
As we step into our daily activities, let’s pause and remember whom we serve: Jesus, the very radiance of God's glory and the image of the invisible God.
Paul echoes this truth in Colossians 1:15–16:
"The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in Him all things were created, things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities. All things were created through Him and for Him."
What an encouraging truth! But as we rejoice in who Jesus is, let’s also keep our hearts open to those around us who don't yet know Him. In 2 Corinthians 4:4, Paul reminds us that "the god of this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so they cannot see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God."
Let’s lift up our friends, family, and neighbors in prayer today—asking God to open their eyes so they too can see the beauty and light of Jesus.
Be blessed today as you walk with and follow Jesus, the true radiance of God’s glory.
