Going from Glory to Glory
Are you concerned about the changes taking place around you? Are you afraid of where your life is headed? Well, if you belong to Christ, don’t be. His Word assures us that God changes us “from glory to glory.”
“But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.” (2 Cor. 3:18)
We see here that the Holy Spirit is in charge of effecting changes in the lives of the children of God, and we are told, He changes us from “glory to glory.” Not from “glory to garbage.” That means, we can count on Him to move us forward, not backwards. He will always change us for the better.
And this is true, even when it does not appear to be the case. He was moving Joseph forward, even when he was sold as a slave by his brothers, lied upon by Potiphar’s wife, and falsely imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. That was his route to the palace.
He was moving Moses from glory to glory, even when he was fleeing from Egypt to live in the desert for forty years. He was actually on the way to becoming the leader and deliverer of Israel. That was his route to greatness.
And He was moving Jesus forward, even when he was being betrayed by Judas, deserted by His disciples and crucified by His enemies. He was on His way to the right hand of the Father to be Lord and to become the source of salvation for the world.
Child of God, do not be afraid of changes, or worry about where your life is headed. Just keep beholding the beauty of Jesus daily, as your righteousness, as your Savior. Then you can rest in His promise that the Holy Spirit will change you from glory to glory. And He will!
Remember, you are not moving backwards, no matter what it looks like. He is moving you forward.
Encouraged!

Dear Presiding Prelate Bishop Johnson,
Praise God for the miraculous and supernatural transition…Praying that all involved and coming will catch the vision and run with it with their whole hearts! May the Shekinah Glory of the Lord fill the services! God is on the move…and He is moving you forward into your divine destiny! God makes all things new! (Rev 21:5). The anointing of Lord is upon you and First Lady Pastor Chrys Johnson even according to Luke 4:18-20 which reads:
Luke 4:18-20King James Version (KJV)
18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
Continue to be blessed and know that Mom and I support you! Please pray for us for increased finances so that we can be a tangible blessing to your awesome ministry!
In the Holy Presence and Mighty Power of the Lord God Almighty,
Esther S. Eyere, Fisher of Men.
