glory of God
Heaven's radiant majesty
Glory of God refers to the radiant majesty, splendor, and perfection attributed to the divine in religious contexts.
In Christian theology, it encompasses God's visible manifestation of power and holiness: The heavens declare the glory of God.
The phrase also describes the purpose of human action in devotional life—doing things for the glory of God means acting to honor or reflect divine greatness.
Glory to God in the highest is a traditional expression of praise.
