All for God’s Glory
Whether, then, you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. – 1 Corinthians 10:31
God’s Word tells us that even our eating and drinking should be done to the glory of God. Whatever you do should be done for His glory. The question you must now ask about everything is, “How will this glorify God?”
God is intent on displaying who He is. Psalm 19:1 says, “The heavens are telling of the glory of God; and their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.” The whole earth gives us a picture of the glory of the invisible God. Nature preaches us a sermon on His glory. Everything should point us to His glory, and if it doesn’t, it’s because we are too self-centered to look for His glory. And if we are centered on ourselves, we are in sin. Sin is simply falling short of glorifying God. Romans 3:23 says, “All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” You don’t have to rob a bank to be a sinner. All you have to do is try to take the glory that belongs to God alone.
God’s glory is everywhere. Revelation 21:23 says that heaven needs no sun or moon because the glory of the Lord illuminates everything. There is no night there, for the place is consumed with the glory of God. His glory is so awesome that it lights up our heavenly home.
When you glorify God, you usher His power and majesty into your daily life. The glory of God can change the ordinary into the extraordinary. Seek His glory in everything.
