THE HONORS WE OWE!

“For we don’t live for ourselves or die for ourselves.  If we live, it’s to honor the Lord.   And if we die, it’s to honor the Lord.”  Romans 14:7-8

When we were born, we began our repayment plan to God.  You and I were created to glorify our Lord.  We are to praise him, honor him and glorify him.  He created us to fellowship with and to enjoy.  In the beginning the devil enticed Eve, who in turn enticed Adam to disobey God.  He tricked them to believe that God was trying to deceive them so as to withhold power and wisdom from them.  They thought that the wisdom they would receive from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, would make them equal to God.  What they didn’t realize is that God was trying to protect them and keep them in the arms of love, patience and great hope. They were created to honor and have fellowship with God and not become his adversaries.  With the sacrifice of Jesus, we are able to once again be re-created by being spiritually re-born and begin to glorify God for who he is and what he does for us.  It is our responsibility to glorify and honor our God in heaven!  PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
