And
the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us {Emmanuel}, (and we beheld His glory as of the only begotten of the Father),
full of grace and truth.
[John
1:14]
Although
He made Himself of no reputation; to be
made in the likeness of (sinful) man, He was born a king to be king; that we
might be made the righteousness of God in Him, and be made kings and priests of
God. [Phil 2:7; Pastor; 2 Cor 5:21; Rev 1:6]
Jesus
prayed: “Father, I will that they ...whom Thou hast
given Me be with Me ...that they may behold My glory ...And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them ...” [John 17:24,22]
Jesus'
birth signaled the return of the glory
of the Lord, that had long since departed from the midst of His people, Israel.
[Pastor; 1 Samuel 4:21]
ThenSingsMySoul:
AND
THE GLORY, THE GLORY OF THE LORD
SHALL
BE REVEALED,
AND
ALL FLESH, SHALL SEE IT TOGETHER,
AND
ALL FLESH SHALL SEE IT TOGETHER;
FOR
THE MOUTH OF THE LORD HATH SPOKEN IT!
[Isaiah
40:5]
