Jesus is the fullest expression of God's glory. God's glory is the magnificence, worth, loveliness, and grandeur of his many perfections. We manifest God's glory by displaying His character walking in His ways, His word, and His will. So then, whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of [our great] God. (1Corinthians 10:31)They drink their fill of the abundance of Your house;
And You allow them to drink from the river of Your delights.
For with You is the fountain of life [the fountain of life-giving water];
In Your light we see light. (Psalm 36:8-9)The unfolding of Your [glorious] words give light;
Their unfolding gives understanding to the simple. (Psalm 119:130) The Son is the radiance and only expression of the glory of [our awesome] God [reflecting God’s Shekinah glory, the Light-being, the brilliant light of the divine], and the exact representation and perfect imprint of His [Father’s] essence, and upholding and maintaining and propelling all things [the entire physical and spiritual universe] by His powerful word [carrying the universe along to its predetermined goal]. When He [Himself and no other] had [by offering Himself on the cross as a sacrifice for sin] accomplished purification from sins and established our freedom from guilt, He sat down [revealing His completed work] at the right hand of the Majesty on high [revealing His Divine authority]. (Hebrews 1:3) Your statutes are my songs
In the house of my pilgrimage.
O LORD, I remember Your name in the night,
And keep Your law.
This has become mine [as the gift of Your grace],
That I observe Your precepts [accepting them with loving obedience]. Heth.
The LORD is my portion;
I have promised to keep Your words.
I sought Your favor with all my heart;
Be merciful and gracious to me according to Your promise. (Psalm 119:54-58)
