On GLORIFYING GOD

 

JESUS declared:

John 15:8

King James Version

8 Herein is my Father glorified, 

that ye bear much fruit; 

so shall ye be my disciples.

The world will tell you differently.

But life was never about self.

It's always been about glorifying GOD.

The One who gave us life.

The One who gave us love.

The One who gave us light.

All that is JESUS.

GOD is given His rightful glory.

When we serve Him.

Through His SON.

Which makes us bear much FRUIT.

As these verses show:

John 15:16

King James Version

16 Ye have not chosen me, 

but I have chosen you, 

and ordained you, 

that ye should go and bring forth fruit, 

and that your fruit should remain: 

that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, 

he may give it you.

Psalm 1:1-3

King James Version

1 Blessed is the man that walketh not 

in the counsel of the ungodly, 

nor standeth in the way of sinners, 

nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful.

2 But his delight is in the law of the Lord; 

and in his law doth he meditate day and night.

3 And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, 

that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; 

his leaf also shall not wither; 

and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.

Philippians 1:9-11

King James Version

9 And this I pray, 

that your love may abound yet more and more 

in knowledge and in all judgment;

10 That ye may approve things that are excellent; 

that ye may be sincere and without offence till the day of Christ.

11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, 

which are by Jesus Christ, 

unto the glory and praise of God.

Ephesians 5:9-11

King James Version

9 (For the fruit of the Spirit 

is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)

10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.

11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, 

but rather reprove them.

Psalm 90:17

King James Version

17 And let the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us: 

and establish thou the work of our hands upon us; 

yea, the work of our hands establish thou it.

Romans 12:1-2

King James Version

12 I beseech you therefore, brethren, 

by the mercies of God, 

that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, 

holy, 

acceptable unto God, 

which is your reasonable service.

All this is possible, through JESUS.

And through His SPIRIT.

For SPIRIT glorifies JESUS.

John 16:13-15

King James Version

13 Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, 

he will guide you into all truth: 

for he shall not speak of himself; 

but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: 

and he will shew you things to come.

14 He shall glorify me: 

for he shall receive of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.

15 All things that the Father hath are mine: 

therefore said I, that he shall take of mine, 

and shall shew it unto you.

Thus said, let your life and work glorify GOD alone.

In Him, you will find peace, love, joy, and fulfillment.

All GLORY belongs to GOD.
