Truth #5, Pt.2 – Go After God's Glory

SunFeb202011 PostedSunday, February 20, 2011 @ 10 AMByPastor Brian WhiteTaggedNo tags

Psalm 96
Main Idea: The personal pursuit of God's glory readies us in mission and worship.

Be intentionally vocal about the glory of God.

Lord, I want to declare Your glory to the nations.
- Let me speak of Your salvation.
- Let me tell of Your great works.
- Let me testify of Your position.
Lord, I want to ascribe Your glory back to You.
- Let me worship You because of Your character.
- Let me worship You because of Your actions.
- Let me worship You because of Your returning.

How can I put this truth into practice?
Reflection:

Do you long for a God-experience like Moses did in Exodus 33? When was the last time you asked God to illustrate His glory and character to you?
Has there been a time in your life when you came to know God's ways or character in a specific situation?

Application:

With a neighbor or friend this week, have a discussion about who God is and what He has done for you. (Declare His glory! Testify to it!)
In your devotion and Bible study time this week, take a few minutes each day to "ascribe" glory to the Lord. (Write a worship letter to Him, sing a song of worship to Him)
