For the Glory of Almighty God


Isaiah 49:5
And now the LORD speaks--the one who formed me in my mother's womb to be his servant, who commissioned me to bring Israel back to him. The LORD has honored me, and my God has given me strength.

We learn three important things from the prophet Isaiah that pertains to each of us:  
1) God created us.
2) He called us to serve Him.
3) He will give us all we need to fulfill our calling.

The entire human race was created to serve and glorify God forever.  We cannot fulfill our responsibility to glorify God if we live in darkness.  We must live in The Light.

Christ dwelling in us and reigning in us is our hope for living a life that glorifies Almighty God.  Through the presence of Jesus Christ our calling to serve God will be revealed to us.  Through the presence of Jesus, all the mysteries of heaven will be revealed to us.  We will not be shortchanged in any manner when it comes to us being able to glorify God.

As we surrender to the direction of the Holy Spirit in our lives, we will fulfill everything that the Lord has prepared for us.  We will receive all of God's loving kindness, mercy and grace.  We will be given all the tolerance, patience, discernment, wisdom and strength that we need to fulfill God's creative purposes for our lives.  Through it all, we will glorify Our Heavenly Father.

Prayer
Heavenly Father, we thank You for the loving kindness, the mercy and the grace that You have bestowed upon us through Your Son, Jesus.  We rejoice in knowing that You have a wonderful plan for our lives that will bring glory to You forever.  We pray, Lord, that You bring us to a place of repentance so that we may turn away from all that displeases You and turn toward every good thing that You have set aside for us.  May it all be for your eternal glory.
