Glory Day 2: Father of Glory

Ephesians 1:17
…that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory…

We are going to talk a great deal about Jesus—obviously. But before we dive in, can we acknowledge the Father? All the wonderful, glorious things about our Savior and coming King—the name above every name—are in perfect communion with his Father. To see Jesus is to see the Father (John 14:9). And he is the Father of glory! Isn’t that the most certain thing you’ve ever heard?

As we set our hearts on the coming of your son, Jesus, and his coming again, we say thank you, Father of Glory. Your life is everything, and we are after your heart. It’s so good to be your sons and daughters!

In Context Ephesians 1:15-23
…that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power toward us who believe, according to the working of his great might that he worked in Christ when he raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come. And he put all things under his feet and gave him as head over all things to the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.
