Heaven is declaring God’s glory!
1 CORINTHIANS 6:20 (GNT)
Use your bodies for God's glory.
THE ESSENCE
The bottom line is that everything we do and are should be joining heaven to declare God’s glory.
DAILY FODDER
Declaring God’s glory isn't just a matter of formal worship, although that is clearly a part of it. Over 99% of declaring glory is acting, thinking, and speaking in such a way that God is properly honored throughout the rest of the week. It is a high privelege to be serving him.
PRAYER
Great God, I want to join the heavenly chorus that declares your glory. Forgive me for thinking that glorifying you is only about singing praise songs. Teach me to honor you through what I do with every aspect of my life. I want the entirety of my soul to honor you. That's my pupose, to glorify you. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
