You can receive this crown of glory by faith in Jesus Christ to help you to do this below.

1 Peter 5:1The elders which are among you I exhort, who am also an elder, and a witness of the sufferings of Christ, and also a partaker of the glory that shall be revealed:[SUP] 2 [/SUP]Feed the flock of God which is among you, taking the oversight thereof, not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind;[SUP] 3 [/SUP]Neither as being lords over God's heritage, but being examples to the flock.[SUP] 4 [/SUP]And when the chief Shepherd shall appear, ye shall receive a crown of glory that fadeth not away.

Philippians 1:[SUP]6 [/SUP]Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:[SUP] 7 [/SUP]Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.[SUP] 8 [/SUP]For God is my record, how greatly I long after you all in the bowels of Jesus Christ.[SUP] 9 [/SUP]And this I pray, that your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment;[SUP] 10 [/SUP]That ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.[SUP]11 [/SUP]Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.

2 Corinthians 3:[SUP]4 [/SUP]And such trust have we through Christ to God-ward:[SUP]5 [/SUP]Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God;

2 Corinthians 4:[SUP]5 [/SUP]For we preach not ourselves, but Christ Jesus the Lord; and ourselves your servants for Jesus' sake.[SUP]6 [/SUP]For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.[SUP]7 [/SUP]But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.

1 Corinthians 3:[SUP]5 [/SUP]Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?[SUP] 6 [/SUP]I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.[SUP] 7 [/SUP]So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

1 Corinthians 1:[SUP]29 [/SUP]That no flesh should glory in his presence.[SUP] 30 [/SUP]But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:[SUP]31 [/SUP]That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

Any saint receiving that crown of righteousness will be showing off the Lord's crowning achievements in him or in her. That is why we will be glad for that crown for that testifies to what the Lord has done in us and through us which is to our praise and thanksgiving to Him and thus to His glory alone in Heaven.

It is no wonder why the 24 elders shall cast their crowns at His feet for those crowns are His crowning achievements in them.

Revelation 4:[SUP]9 [/SUP]And when those beasts give glory and honour and thanks to him that sat on the throne, who liveth for ever and ever,[SUP] 10[/SUP]The four and twenty elders fall down before him that sat on the throne, and worship him that liveth for ever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying,[SUP] 11 [/SUP]Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.
