"Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2.9-11The name of Jesus is not like any other name. It carries within itself all authority over all that exists in heaven, on earth and all the universe. That is, over all His creation and everything turns against it. No evil subsists or can stand against the Name of the Lord of Glory. Therefore, pronouncing this name frivolously is taking the name of the Lord God in vain.

Desired Temple
"The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,’ says the Lord of hosts..." Haggai 2.9
The people were amazed when the First Temple was erected and the presence of God filled that holy place. It was just a test for what He really wanted to do: A temple for His Spirit inside each follower of His Son.
There is no greater honor than to be dwelling of the Most High God. If such knowledge is too great, imagine when you have that experience.

Temperance
"And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown." I Corinthians 9.25
Competitive athletes undergo strict training, dieting and exemplary discipline. They make real sacrifices hunting for medals and the glory of this world. Even so, in time, their glory and accomplishments are forgotten.
The same does not happen to the true glory, which is reserved to the loyal and faithful to the Lord of Eternal Glory.

THE GLORY OF MAN
"Thus says the Lord: Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches; but let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and know Me, judgement and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight, says the Lord." Jeremiah 9:23-24The glory of man comes from knowing the Lord Jesus Christ. Who will introduce Him? Religions? The religious? The wise men? Who will introduce Jesus to mankind?
Only the Holy Spirit is able to do that. This is why we need to seek Him with all our strength, all our heart and all our understanding.

Longsuffering
"But You, O Lord, are a God full of compassion, and gracious, longsuffering and abundant in mercy and truth." Psalms 86:15When there's sincere conversion, the one can see God's glory in one's life.

Revelation
“ Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches; But let him who glories glory in this, that he understands and knows Me, that I am the LORD, exercising lovingkindness, judgment, and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight,” says the LORD."
Jeremiah 9.23
Nothing in this world can be bought through the glory of the practical knowledge of our Lord Jesus. It is a revelation from the Holy Spirit to those who are chosen.

Looking
"Then He told them a story: "A man had an apple tree planted in his front yard. He came to it expecting to find apples..." Luke 13:6
Faith, when practiced daily, pleases God as He sees His Children counting on His power. This glorifies Him.
