OUR ENTIRE LIVES SHOULD BE LIVED TO GLORIFY GOD!

“I am worn out waiting for your rescue, but I have put my hope in your word.” Psalm 119:81

How often have you thought to yourself that it sure is taking God a long time to answer my prayers. Our God is a very patient God. He has taken his time and continues to take his time in fulfilling his promises in our lives, because he wants as many of his children to be saved as can be. The devil, on the other hand, uses God’s patience and his goodness against us to try and trick us to believe that our God is never going to fulfill his promises. He tells us that God will never answer our prayers and he will never come back to rapture his people as He promised he would. The devil digs at us with his lies and continues to try and convince us that God in heaven is a liar and that His mighty Word is nothing more than a fairy tale. The devil tells us that we have heard these things for years and yet our God has not produced and never will. He throws out lies that try to convince us that anything that God does in our lives is just coincidence. It is because of the great spiritual warfare that is going on between God and the devil that you and I must stay strong in our faith. Our entire lives should be built around the promises of our God. Everything we do, no matter how small or how large, should be done in honor of our God in heaven. Even though living in this world is sometimes very hard, it can be much easier with our Lord by our side. We must, however, invite him to be with us. We must truly believe in him and what he has and will provide for us. Things may look bleak to us at the moment but if we believe and plow through the obstacles thrown in our way, our lives will become stronger and our testimonies real to those around us. Our entire lives should be lived to glorify our God in heaven. Always remember, “we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength.” Philippians 4:13. Whatever we have, wherever we are, we can make it through anything through the One who made us who we are! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
