The Glory of the Son of Man (continued)

Beloved, in continuance of our theme, “The Glory of the Son of Man” – Remember, the prophet Daniel said, “I beheld till the thrones were cast down, and the Ancient of days did sit…” (Daniel 7:9). On reading this divinely inspired prophecy, most saints ask, “When and how shall these things be, concerning future events? Yet, when we observe this verse more closely, we can discover when these things shall be. When we consider past world developments (the destruction of the Berlin Wall, the Gulf War, etc.), it is evident, that in these times, more “thrones” are being “cast down” than ever before. Today, given the abolition of Apartheid in South Africa and the global market, “uneasy lies the head that wears the crown,” as my grandfather used to say. In other words, as Jesus taught us (Matthew 24:6), “wars and rumors of wars” have set the precedent. In our time, we are losing casualties in the Middle East. This is confirmation of the fact that “My [Jesus’] time is at hand” (Matthew 26:18).

Precious Ones, all of these past and future events lead us to the thought that it is time now for God to reveal to this world “the Glory of the Son of Man.” Beloved, what I am trying to show you through scripture is this – our season to be blessed is right now. Now is the time for God’s “Glory” (His manifestation of blessings) to be shown upon His children (the saints). Do not take my word; let us rehearse the revelation given to the Apostle Paul. He said, “I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us” (Romans 8:18). Paul does not stop there. He goes on to say that “the earnest expectation of the creature [the world of believers and unbelievers] waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God [they are waiting to behold the wonderful sight of the Sons of God coming into their own and inheriting what belongs to them]” (Romans 8:19).

Chosen Ones, I will write more on this subject next week, but consider this – there is nothing in scripture that suggests that we have to wait for “the Glory of the Son of Man” to be revealed in heaven! Remember, “[the] time is at hand” (Matthew 26:18) right now!

I am so blessed to know you all.
Your Humble Servant,

Pastor William L. McCoy
