Jesus Gave You His Glory — Here’s How to Live It Out

 

John 17:22 – “And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one.”

‎Just before Jesus faced the cross, He prayed one of the most intimate and powerful prayers recorded in Scripture. In John 17, He didn’t just pray for His disciples—He prayed for all believers. In that sacred moment, He revealed something astonishing: “The glory you gave me, I have given them.”

‎Let that sink in. Jesus gave you His glory.

‎This isn’t something to avoid or shy away from in false humility. It’s not “holy” to say, “Lord, I will never take your glory,” when in fact, Jesus Himself has shared it with you. You were created to walk in it, live in it, and reveal it.

‎In the Old Testament, glory was symbolic—it rested on the priest’s robe as a sign of righteousness and honor. But in Christ, this isn’t symbolic. It’s your spiritual reality. You are clothed in righteousness, crowned with favor, and empowered to reign.

‎Walking in God’s glory means embracing His fullness: abundance instead of lack, strength instead of sickness, victory instead of defeat. It’s a life of purpose, authority, and radiant light.

‎You were never meant to barely survive—you were designed to shine.

‎So, rise each day with the awareness of who you are in Christ. The world may not understand it, but heaven does—and creation is waiting for the manifestation of the sons and daughters of God.

‎You carry His glory—walk in it boldly.
