How easy it is for us to take God’s credit. When we complete a task that we’ve been working on or after we’ve preached a message that may have moved the congregation; how easy it is for flesh to rise up and have us believe it was all our doing.
For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure, Philippians 2:13. It is God who gives us the power to accomplish His will. Many of us may not know specifically what the will of the Lord is for your life, but a great place to start is in His word. Another place would be to simply ask of Him what He would have you to do. Know that whatever He has called you to do; He has already equipped you to be able to accomplish it and is obligated to make you succeed.
Always remember everything we have and all that we do (according to the will of God); the praise should be directed towards God. All of our gifts and talents did not just haphazardly appear. Instead, they were given to us by our heavenly Father. Let’s not mistakenly steal His glory or take His praise. We should learn to be humble and point all glory and praise to the true and living God. We should also learn to show forth His glory in our daily living. Are you a glory carrier?
Have you taking time out of your busy schedule today to give God all the glory for the marvelous things He has done and is doing in your life? How about now?
Your thoughts?
