In his sermon earlier, the presiding Minister of Glorious Life Gospel Centre, Bishop Goddy Okafor, stated that the glory of God is the manifest presence and power of God at work in the life of a born again Christian and advised Christians to always take advantage of the heritage they derive in Jesus Christ which performs exploits .
