In this message, we are looking at the glory of God. God is glorified in all that he does. We can look at the different ways that His glory is manifested.
1. God is glorified in His creation
God has created everything we see. When He created the world He saw that it was good. He is the potter and His amazing creation is His clay.
2. God is glorified in His craftsmanship
Craftsmanship means God is keeping His hand on His creation and continuing to receive the glory for it.
3. God is glorified in His closeness
When we go through trials, God will be there with us. However, he isn't only with us during our trials. He is also with us when things are going well for us.
4. God is glorified in His charity
Why is God so close? Because He loves us. He loves us so much that He died on the cross to give us salvation from our sin.
5. God is glorified in His choice
We as the children that God has chosen show God's glory through our salvation.
6. God is glorified in His condemnation
Instead of condemning His sinful children, He condemned His perfect Son in our place. This is a glorious work of God.
7. God is glorified in His calling
This is different than God's choice because in His calling God is saying, "Let there be light." He calls, and it will happen. He calls us to Him.
8. God is glorified in His commission
We are called to be God's witnesses by Christ to tell the world about God. We glorify God in being his witnesses.
9. God is glorified in His character
- God is glorified in His comfort
- God is glorified in His graciousness
- God is glorified in His longsuffering
We can take joy and stand in awe in the glory of God. |
