DAY 7

THe Reason for Everything
-Romans 11:36 Everything comes from God alone
-Everything wasw made for God and his glory
-What is the glory of God? It is who God is. It is the essence of his nature, the weight of his importance, the radiance of his splendor, the demonstration of his power, the atmosphere of his presence
-Everything God created reflects his glory.
-In the Bible God's glory was portrayed as a consuming fire, a cloud, thunder, smoke and a brilliant light. In heaven God's glory privides all the light needed.
-Living for God' s glory is the greatest achievement we can accomplish with our lives
-God's inherent glory is what he possesses because he is God
-When anything in creation fulfills its purpose it brings glory to God...including us!
-"In commanding us to glorify him, God is inviting us to enjoy him" C.S.Lewis
-We bring glory to God by -worshiping him
-loving other believers
-becoming like Christ
-serving others with our gifts
-telling others about him
-Living the rest of your life for the glory of God witll require a chang in your priorities, your schedule, your relationships and everything else
-Jesus will give you everything you need to live for him
-It's all for him
Where in my daily routine can I become more aware of God's glory?
