An Ascription of Praise

Romans 11:36

 

Here is an ascription of praise to our great and glorious God by the inspired apostle, an ascription of praise joyously echoed in the heart of every sinner saved by GodÕs free and sovereign grace in Christ. With Paul, let us fall upon our knees before God and worship, saying, ÒTo him be glory forever. AmenÓ

      Set this, my brother, set this, my sister, as the goal of your heart. Let nothing set your heart beating but love to God. Let the ambition for GodÕs glory fire your soul. Let GodÕs glory be the motive of everything you do. Let GodÕs glory sustain your heart in every trial. Depend upon it, child of God, where self begins, sorrow begins. Your happiness and joy are secured by setting the glory of God before your heart as the motive of your life.

      While we live, let us seek the glory of God. Seek his glory by showing gratitude to him. Seek his glory by implicit trust in him. Seek his glory by total surrender and complete submission to him. — ÒWhether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.Ó (1 Corinthians 10:31)

      Soon, very soon, everybody is going to see that God is all in all (1 Corinthians 15:24-28), and everybody will say, ÒTo God be the glory!Ó May God the Holy Ghost give us grace to live in anticipation of that day when all things shall be seen to be to him. In that day, we will cast our crowns before him and sing, ÒThou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honor and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were createdÓ (Revelation 4:11).

      Would you glorify God? Would you live for the glory of God? — Trust the Lord Jesus Christ! Believe on the Son of God and glorify him forever!
