A More Glorious Ministry - by Ps Ashish Raichur - All Peoples Church in Bangalore India Spirit-filled, Word-based, Supernatural

2 Corinthians 3:7-18 by Ps Ashish Raichur

God's desire to seek out and raise up a nation of people was so that through them the earth could be filled with the glory of the Lord. The Church is part of this plan to see the whole earth filled with the glory of God. In the New Covenant, every believer is a minister and is called to manifest the glory of God. New Testament ministry is to manifest greater glory than what we see in Old Testament ministry. The manifestation of God's glory takes place through a people who are hungry and who walk in purity, faith, anointing, authority and unity.

God’s Desire: The earth shall be filled with the glory

Number 14:10-12,21

vs 21 but truly, as I live, all the earth shall be filled with the glory of the LORD—

God's desire to seek out and raise up a nation of people was so that through them the earth could be filled with the glory of the Lord.

Habakkuk 2:14 For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, As the waters cover the sea.

We are part of seeing this desire of God's heart fulfilled. This will climax in the reign of Christ here on earth (Psalm 72:1-20, see vs 19)

A More Glorious Ministry

The Gospel reveals the glory

whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.
Be bold about the gospel.
