The Purpose of Life is to Glorify God

God Wants Christians to Do What Satisfies Him

 

For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.’

Philippians 2:13

 

Glorifying God is the reason for mankind’s existence and for the believer, it is our chief purpose in everything we do.

I Corinthians 10:31

“Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.”

 

‘Wherefore also we pray always for you, that our God would count you worthy of this calling, and fulfil all the good pleasure of his goodness, and the work of faith with power: ‘

2 Thessalonians 1:11

 

‘That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.’

2 Thessalonians 1:12

 

As believers in the gospel of grace (1 Corinthians 15:1-4) and members of the body of Christ, we (and that’s all of us, not just the Pastors or Theologians) can bring praise and honor to God by declaring His glorious character and attributes, His sovereign and sustaining power (Colossians 1:17; Hebrews 1:3) over His majestic creation (Colossians 1:16).  As we keep our eyes fixed on Jesus Christ (by staying in His Word) who is the author and finisher of our faith, we will grow more and more building on our faith which will motivate us to bring glory to God.
