When Glory Shows Up | FILLED Series (Week 1)What happens when God's presence actually shows up? Not in theory, not in a worship lyric, but really, tangibly, undeniably fills a space?
In this message, we explore the moment when Solomon dedicated the Temple and God's glory showed up so powerfully that the priests couldn't even stand to do their jobs. Drawing from 1 Kings 8 and 2 Chronicles 5, we discover three things that had to happen before the glory came: they built something beautiful, they came together in unity, and they surrendered control.
We're seven days into a 21-day journey of prayer, and this sermon is a call to keep pressing in. To prepare our hearts, not just our buildings. To create space for God to move in ways we can't predict or control. Because the truth is, we've gotten comfortable with a version of church that's manageable, predictable, and safe. But when God's presence really shows up, it disrupts everything.
This is Week 1 of our "FILLED: Living in the Presence of God" series, and it's an invitation to stop just working for God and start being with God. To remember that we are the temple now, individually and collectively, and God wants to fill us with the same glory that filled Solomon's Temple.
Whether you're faithful in the 21 days or just jumping in, this message will challenge you to ask: What am I building? Am I contributing to unity? And am I ready for God to show up, even if it wrecks my plans?
Scripture References: 1 Kings 8:1-11, 2 Chronicles 5:11-14, 1 Corinthians 6:19-20, Ephesians 2:21-22
