Give God the Glory! It’s for your making….
The road we travel sometimes seems so hard. We go through life and we want better, we want to live better, we want better jobs, better cars, house’s and yes even better children, families and mates. Some of us get saved thinking, now that I’m saved it’s going to get better. Sometimes it gets a little harder and we can’t seem to see our way out. The Word of God says to keep our mind stayed on Jesus and He will keep us in perfect peace (Isaiah 26:3). In other words, no matter what we go through God is going to get the Glory…
Take a look at the Apostle Paul’s testimony in 2 Corinthians 11:21-33. Paul was imprisoned, had countless beatings, and often near death. Five times he received at the hands of the Jews forty lashes less one (39) and three times he was beaten with rods. Once he was stoned, three times shipwrecked; a night and a day adrift at sea, on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from robbers, danger from his own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers; in toil and hardship, through many sleepless nights, in hunger and thirst, often without food, in cold and exposure. There was daily pressure from churches and trouble on every side.
However, I do know that same Lord and Savior that was with Paul, is the same Lord and Savior who is with us today. HE is Jehovah Jireh (our provider), Jehovah Nissi (who fights our battles), Jehovah Sabaoth (the Lord of Hosts), El Shaddai (the Lord God Almighty).
He is JESUS CHRIST.
2 Corinthians 4:7-10 “But we hath this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed; always carrying in the body the death of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus may also be manifested in our bodies.” So remember, we go through in life for God to get the Glory. It’s never about what we want but the glory that belongs to God and God alone…We think we have a market on people, places and things and it all belongs to God….SO, TO GOD BE THE GLORY!
