GOD'S GLORY

God is not like heartless tyrants on earth who seek to glorify themselves at the expense of others. God’s glory is seen in the ways that He blesses us: God gets glory from showing us mercy. “Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your name give glory, because of Your mercy, because of Your truth” (Psalm 115:1, NKJV). God is glorified when He shows us His love. “…to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God. Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask of think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen” (Ephesians 3:19-21 NKJV). God’s glory is seen when He leads us into rest. “As a beast goes down into the valley, and the Spirit of the Lord causes him to rest, so You lead Your people, to make for Yourself a glorious name” (Isaiah 63:14 NKJV). God is glorified when He answers our prayers. “And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son” (John 14:13 NKJV).
