February 9 – IS GOD HONORED?


Lord, God – It’s not about us. We don’t seek glory and honor. Show your glory. Bring honor to your name. In the victory, let everyone see that you are truth. You are faithful, loving, and gracious! (Psalm 115:1)

                When it all comes down, what matters? What is your first thought when the victory is won? How about when it looks like defeat? From the Christian’s perspective, isn’t every result part of an overall victory story? If that’s true, the bottom-line should always be the same.

What matters, in every case, is that God be honored; that He be known and seen to be gracious and truthful, and faithful. God should be glorified. The Bible is full of stories where it was hard to see a win, but still, God was glorified. Very often, where you see a defeat, God is simply setting up the scene for a story that will reveal His power.

In a world where the bottom line is mostly about money and influence and fame, don’t worry about how you look, nor the results you see when you obey God. Let your measure be whether people can see the Lord in a way that He is honored.
