HOW CAN I BRING GLORY TO GOD!☝🙌
Birds bring glory to God by flying,chirping,nesting, and doing other bird-like activities that God intended. Even the lowly ant brings glory to God when it fulfills the purpose it was created for. God made ants to be ants, and he made you to be you. St. Irenaeus said,"The glory of God is a human being fully live!"
There are many ways to bring glory to God, but they can be summarized in God's five purposes for your life. We will spend the rest of this article looking at them in detail and hope we can learn this overview.
Here the first one☝
🙌We bring glory to God by worshiping Him!
Worship is our first responsibility to God. We worship God by enjoying him. God wants our worship to be motivated by love,thanksgiving,delight,not duty!
John Piper notes, "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him."
Worship is far more than praising,singing, and praying to God. Worship is a lifestyle of enjoying God, loving him, and giving ourselves to be used for his purposes. When you use your life for God's glory,everything you do can become an act of worship!
The bible says, " Use your whole body as a tool to do what is right for the glory of God!"
The second one--
🙌We bring God glory by loving other believers!
When you are born again,you became a part of God's family. Following Christ is not just a matter of believing; it also includes belonging and learning to love the family of God!
Its your responsibility to learn how to love as God does,because God is love,and it honors him! And Jesus said, "As I have loved you,so you must love one another,By this all men will know that you are my disciples,if you love one another."
The third one--
🙌WE BRING GOD GLORY BY BECOMING LIKE CHRIST!
Once we are born into Gods family, he wants us to grow to spiritual maturity. What does that look like? Spiritual maturity is becoming like Jesud in the way we think,feel, and act. The more you develop Christ like character, the more you will bring glory to God!
The bible says,"As the spirit of thr Lord works within us, we become more and more like him and reflect his glory even more."
God gave you a new life and new nature when you accepted Christ! Now, for the rest of your life on earth,God wants to continue the process of changing your character.
The bible says,"May you always be filled with the fruit of your salvation- thosr good things that are produce in your life by Jesus Christ--for this will bring much glory and praise to God."
The fourth one--
🙌WE BRING GOD GLORY BY SERVING OTHERS WITH OUR GIFTS!
Each of us was uniquely designed by God with talents,gifts,skills, and abilities. The way you're "wired" is not accident! God didn't give you youre abilities for selfish purposes! They were given to benefit others, just as others were given ablities for your benefit.
The bible says,"God has given gifts to each of you from his great variety of spiritual gifts, Manage them well so that God's generosity can flow through you... Are you called to help others? Do it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then God wil be given glory."!
The fifth one--
🙌WE BRING GOD GLORY BY TELLING OTHERS ABOUT HIM!
God doesn't want his love and purposes kept a secret. Once we know the truth,he expects us to share it with others. This is a great privilege!--introducing others to Jesus,helping them to discover their purpose., and preparing them to their eternal destiny!
The bible says, "As God's grace brings more and more people to Christ,...God will receive more and more glory."
FINALE!
Why we live for?
Livinh the rest of your life for the glory of God will require a change in your priorities,your schedules,your relationships, and everything else. It will sometimes mean choosing a difficult path instead of an easy one. Even Jesus struggled with this. Knowing he was about to be crucified,he cried out; "My soul has become troubled; and what shall I say, 'Father,save Me from this hour'? But for this purpose I came to this hour, Father,glorify Thy Name."
**Wil you live for your own goal, comfort, and pleasure,? Or will you live the rest of your life for God's glory, ? Knowing that he has promised eternal rewards?
The choice is yours!😊
Happy reading steemians!
To God be the glory!
