God Will Not Share His Glory” — Unless You Are the Son
“I am the Lord; that is My name!
I will not yield My glory to another…” — Isaiah 42:8
This verse has often been used to instil fear, caution, and suppression.
“Don’t touch the glory,” they warn—
as if God were a jealous monarch guarding fame,
as if His glory were a fragile prize we might steal by shining too brightly.
But beloved…
God is the glory.
And Christ in you is that glory revealed.
He will never share His glory with another ego—
but He shares it fully with His sons.
You see, the key is this:
He doesn’t share glory with another,
because you are not another.
You are not separate.
You are not apart.
You are one with Him.
This is not about God withholding.
It is about you awakening to your true inheritance.
Jesus Himself said,
“The glory that You have given Me I have given to them,
that they may be one, even as We are one.” — John 17:22
What religion fears to say, Christ declared boldly:
You carry the same glory.
You don’t rob God by radiating His image.
You glorify Him by being the mirror.
When the flame burns within you,
it is not competition with the Source—
it is the Source expressing through the Son.
So no, this is not about stealing glory—
it is about surrendering ego,
so that only the One remains,
and He glorifies Himself through you.
When you speak with divine boldness,
when you walk as the image of I AM,
when you shine with unveiled face—
you are not “taking” anything from God.
You are fulfilling the eternal purpose:
to be a vessel of His fullness,
a temple of His fire,
a son who radiates the glory of the Father.
He will not share His glory with pride.
But He will pour it out on those who walk in union.
You were never meant to dim the light.
You were meant to become the flame.
