PART TWO: COMMENTARY ON THE TEACHINGS
Introduction: The Concept of Engrafted Words
The term “Engrafted Words” draws from James 1:21: “Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness, and receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls.” An engrafted word is not merely heard but implanted, rooted, and integrated into the very fabric of one’s being. It moves beyond the mind into the spirit, beyond information into transformation.
This week’s recommended sermons from Koinonia Global focus on a single, glorious theme: THE GLORY OF GOD. Each message approaches this theme from a different angle, creating a comprehensive revelation of what glory is, how it operates, and how believers can experience it in increasing measures.
Teaching 1: REST ON ME (Exploring the Riches of His Glory)
Theme: An invitation into divine rest, intimacy, and the sustaining power of God’s glory.
Key Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 – “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.”
In this foundational message, Apostle Joshua Selman establishes a profound connection between rest and glory. At first glance, these concepts may seem contradictory. Rest speaks of stillness, cessation, and surrender. Glory speaks of weight, manifestation, and power. Yet they are deeply interconnected.
The Invitation to Rest
The invitation “Rest on Me” is extended to those who are weary and heavy laden. Weariness comes from carrying burdens you were never meant to carry. The heavy laden are those weighed down by responsibilities, anxieties, and struggles. Jesus offers rest—not inactivity, but a transfer of weight. When you rest on Him, He carries what you cannot.
Rest as a Prerequisite for Glory
Apostle Selman reveals that rest positions you to receive glory. When you cease from self-effort, you create space for God to work. When you stop striving, you start receiving. The glory of God—His manifest presence and power—flows most freely to those who are at rest in Him.
The Riches of His Glory
The phrase “riches of His glory” suggests that glory is not a single commodity but a vast treasury. There are riches of healing glory, delivering glory, providing glory, revealing glory, and transforming glory. These riches are not earned but explored. You do not work for them; you position yourself to experience them.
Practical Application:
- Cease from self-reliance and trust in divine enablement
- Create space for God through stillness and silence
- Approach each day with expectancy to experience His glory
- Rest in the finished work of Christ
Teaching 2: DOXAZO (Revealing His Glory)
Theme: Uncovering the meaning and manifestation of God’s glory in the life of a believer.
Key Scripture: John 1:14 – “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
Commentary:
The word “Doxazo” is the Greek term for glorify, meaning to magnify, extol, or ascribe honor. In this teaching, Apostle Selman unpacks the meaning and manifestation of God’s glory, revealing that glory is not an abstract concept but a tangible reality.
Defining Glory
Glory (Hebrew: kavod, Greek: doxa) is the visible manifestation of God’s invisible attributes. It is the weight of His presence, the radiance of His character, the demonstration of His power. When God’s glory manifests, things change. Atmospheres shift. Situations transform. Lives are altered.
Beholding Glory
John 1:14 declares that the disciples “beheld his glory.” Beholding is not casual observation but intentional contemplation. To behold glory is to gaze upon it until it changes you. 2 Corinthians 3:18 promises that as we behold, we are transformed into the same image from glory to glory.
The Manifestation of Glory
Glory manifests in various ways:
– In healing – When sickness bows, glory is revealed
– In deliverance – When chains break, glory is revealed
– In provision – When needs are met supernaturally, glory is revealed
– In revelation – When truth is unveiled, glory is revealed
– In transformation – When lives change, glory is revealed
Practical Application:
- Cultivate a lifestyle of beholding God through worship and the Word
- Expect glory to manifest in your circumstances
- Give glory to God when you see His hand at work
- Allow glory to transform you from the inside out
Teaching 3: ANOTHER MEASURE (A Cry for Greater Glory)
Theme: A call to hunger for deeper encounters and increased measures of God’s presence.
Key Scripture: 2 Kings 2:9 – “And it came to pass, when they were gone over, that Elijah said unto Elisha, Ask what I shall do for thee, before I be taken away from thee. And Elisha said, I pray thee, let a double portion of thy spirit be upon me.”
Commentary:
The third message in this series, “ANOTHER MEASURE (A Cry for Greater Glory),” is a call to holy dissatisfaction. It challenges believers to not settle for past encounters but to press into deeper dimensions of God’s presence and power.
The Cry for More
Elisha’s request for a double portion reveals a heart that was not satisfied with what he had already received. He had seen Elijah’s ministry, witnessed his miracles, and experienced his mentorship. Yet he asked for more. This is the cry of those who understand that there is always another measure of glory to experience.
The Nature of Glory is Progressive
Glory is not static; it is progressive. 2 Corinthians 3:18 speaks of being transformed “from glory to glory.” This implies that there are levels of glory. There is a glory you experience today, and there is a greater glory available tomorrow. The Christian life is a journey from one measure of glory to another.
The Hunger That Attracts Glory
God responds to hunger. The hungry are filled, while the satisfied remain empty. A cry for greater glory attracts the attention of heaven. When you are no longer content with where you are, God begins to move you to where you need to be.
The Risk of Asking
Elisha asked for something that was not automatically given. He had to articulate his desire. He had to make his request known. Similarly, we must ask for greater measures of glory. We must cry out for deeper encounters. We must not assume that God will give what we do not ask for.
Practical Application:
- Cultivate holy dissatisfaction with your current level of experience
- Ask God for greater measures of His presence and power
- Position yourself to receive through hunger and expectancy
- Do not settle for past encounters; press into new ones

PART FOUR: PRAYER FOR THE WEEK
Father, I thank You for the privilege of receiving Your Word through these teachings. I thank You for the revelation of Your glory—its meaning, its manifestation, and its progressive nature.
Lord, I receive the invitation to rest on You. I lay down every burden I was never meant to carry. I cease from self-effort and enter into Your rest. Let Your glory fill the space I create.
I ask for deeper revelation of Your glory. Open my eyes to behold what I have not seen. Open my heart to experience what I have not felt. Open my life to manifest what I have not known.
I cry for another measure. I am not satisfied with where I am. I want more of You. I want deeper encounters, greater measures, increased glory.
Let these teachings become engrafted words in my spirit—not just heard but implanted, not just received but transforming.
In Jesus’ mighty name. Amen.
