3. Isaiah 42:1-7, Psalms 29:1-10, Mark 1:7-11, and Acts 10:34-38.
In Isaiah 42:1-7, we encounter a profound prophecy about the Servant of the Lord – Jesus Christ. The passage speaks of the Chosen One who will bring Justice to the nations, illuminate the world with Truth, and open blind eyes. This Promise of Exceptional Glory reveals Jesus as the Perfect Manifestation of God’s Authority and Mercy. As Pentecostal Christians, we understand this Promise to signify Jesus’ Divine Mission to bring Salvation and Healing to all humanity.
Psalm 29:1-10 exalts the Lord as the Mighty King over all creation. The psalmist calls for the Glory and Strength that belong to the Lord, acknowledging His Sovereignty over the elements of nature. This depiction of Exceeding Glory portrays God’s Power and Majesty, which surpasses all human understanding. As Pentecostal believers, we are encouraged to recognise and honour the Greatness of God in all aspects of our lives.
Mark 1:7-11 presents the moment of Jesus’ Baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist. As Jesus emerges from the water, the heavens open, and the Holy Spirit descends upon Him like a dove. A Voice from heaven declares, “You are My Son, whom I love. I am pleased with You.” This event demonstrates the Trinity’s Presence – God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit – revealing an extraordinary display of Exceptional Glory. Pentecostal Christians can draw Strength and Assurance from this passage, knowing that they, too, are beloved children of God.
Acts 10:34-38 recounts Peter’s realisation that God shows no favouritism and accepts people from every nation. As Peter shares the Gospel with Cornelius and his household, he proclaims the Good News of Jesus’ Life, Death, and Resurrection. Jesus is portrayed as the Anointed One who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil. This message of Exceeding Glory emphasizes the inclusive nature of God’s Kingdom and the Transformative Power of Jesus’ ministry. Pentecostal Christians are called to follow Jesus’ Example by spreading Love, Healing, and Reconciliation in a broken world.
In reflection, these passages from Isaiah, Psalms, Mark, and Acts reveal God’s Promises of Exceptional Glory and Exceeding Glory through His Son, Jesus Christ.

PN 4):
1. 1 John 4:11-18:
• The PROMISE of Exceptional Glory: “Dear friends, if this is the way God loved us, we must also love each other. No one has ever seen God. If we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us. We know that we live in him and he lives in us because he has given us his Spirit. We have seen and testify to the fact that the Father sent his Son as the Savior of the world. God lives in those who declare that Yeshua is the Son of God, and they live in God. We have known and believed that God loves us. God is love. Those who live in God’s love live in God, and God lives in them. God’s love has reached its goal in us. So we look ahead with confidence to the day of judgment. While we are in this world, we are exactly like him with regard to love. No fear exists where his love is. Rather, perfect love gets rid of fear, because fear involves punishment. The person who lives in fear doesn’t have perfect love.”
• Interpretation: God’s Exceptional Glory is manifested in His LOVE for us, and as His Children, we are called to reflect this LOVE to one another. By living in LOVE, we abide in God, and His Presence dwells within us through His Holy Spirit.
• Practical Application: As Pentecostal Christians, we should strive to LOVE others as God has LOVED us, showing compassion, forgiveness, and mercy in all our interactions. By doing so, we not only reflect God’s Glory but also experience His Presence in our daily lives.
2. Psalm 72:1-13:
• The PROMISE of Exceeding Glory: “O Elohim, give the king your justice and the king’s son your righteousness so that he may judge your people with righteousness and your oppressed people with justice. May the mountains bring peace to the people and the hills bring righteousness. May he grant justice to the people who are oppressed. May he save the children of needy people and crush their oppressor. May they fear you as long as the sun and moon shine— throughout every generation. May he be like rain that falls on freshly cut grass, like showers that water the land. May righteous people blossom in his day. May there be unlimited peace until the moon no longer shines. May he rule from sea to sea, from the Euphrates River to the ends of the earth. May the people of the desert kneel in front of him. May his enemies lick the dust. May the kings from Tarshish and the islands bring presents. May the kings from Sheba and Seba bring gifts. May all kings worship him. May all nations serve him. He will rescue the needy person who cries for help and the oppressed person who has no one’s help. He will have pity on the poor and needy and will save the lives of the needy.”
• Interpretation: The Exceeding Glory of God is revealed in His Justice, Righteousness, and Compassion towards the oppressed and needy. This passage also points towards the Ultimate Rule and Reign of Jesus Christ, the King of Kings, whose Kingdom brings Peace and Righteousness to all people.
• Practical Application: As Pentecostal believers, we are called to seek justice, defend the oppressed, and show compassion to the needy in our communities. By emulating the Character of Jesus Christ, we can participate in ushering in His Kingdom of Peace and Righteousness on earth.
3. Mark 6:45-52:
• The PROMISE of Exceptional Glory: “Yeshua quickly made his disciples get into a boat and cross to Bethsaida ahead of him while he sent the people away. After saying goodbye to them, he went up a mountain to pray. When evening came, the boat was in the middle of the sea, and he was alone on the land. Yeshua saw that they were in a lot of trouble as they rowed, because they were going against the wind. Between three and six o’clock in the morning, he came to them. He was walking on the sea. He wanted to pass by them. When they saw him walking on the sea, they thought, “It’s a ghost!” and they began to scream. All of them saw him and were terrified. Immediately, he said, “Calm down! It’s me. Don’t be afraid!” He got into the boat with them, and the wind stopped blowing. The disciples were astounded. (They didn’t understand what had happened with the loaves of bread. Instead, their minds were closed.).”
• Interpretation: The Exceptional Glory of Jesus Christ is displayed in His Power over nature and His Ability to bring calm in the midst of storms. The disciples witnessed His Miraculous nature but struggled to fully comprehend His Divinity due to their lack of faith.
• Practical Application: For Pentecostal Christians, this passage serves as a reminder of the importance of faith in Jesus Christ. When we face trials or challenges, we can trust in His Power to bring Peace and Deliverance. By keeping our hearts open and our faith steadfast, we can fully experience the Exceptional Glory of God in our lives.
4. 1 Timothy 3:16:
• The PROMISE of Exceeding Glory: “The mystery that gives us our reverence for God is acknowledged to be great: He appeared in his human nature, was approved by the Spirit, was seen by angels, was announced throughout the nations, was believed in the world, and was taken to heaven in glory.”
• Interpretation: The Exceeding Glory of Jesus Christ is evident in His Incarnation, Righteousness, Proclamation to the nations, and Ascension into Heaven. This verse encapsulates the Essence of the Gospel message and the Divinity of Christ.
• Practical Application: As Pentecostal believers, we are called to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ with boldness and conviction, believing in His Redemptive Work for all people. By sharing the message of Salvation and testifying to the Glory of God revealed in Jesus Christ, we participate in spreading His Kingdom on earth.

As we proclaim the Gospel message, empower us to spread the knowledge of Your Glory to the ends of the earth.
5. Heavenly Father, we seek Your Grace to live out the teachings from Your Word, to walk in love, seek justice, uphold righteousness, and proclaim the Gospel with boldness.
