GIVE HIM GLORY...ALL YOU PEOPLE.
Revelation 4:11 (NCV)
11 “You are worthy, our Lord and God,
to receive glory and honor and power,
because you made all things.
Everything existed and was made,
because you wanted it.”
Isaiah 43:7 (NCV)
7 Bring to me all the people who are mine,
whom I made for my glory,
whom I formed and made.”
Isaiah 43:20-21 (NCV)
20 Even the wild animals will be thankful to me—
the wild dogs and owls.
They will honor me when I put water in the desert
and rivers in the dry land
to give water to my people, the ones I chose.
21 The people I made
will sing songs to praise me.
John 4:23-24 (NCV)
23 The time is coming when the true worshipers will
worship the Father in spirit and truth, and that time is
here already. You see, the Father too is actively
seeking such people to worship him. 24 God is spirit,
and those who worship him must worship in spirit and
truth.”
2 Chronicles 5:13-14 (NCV)
13 Those who blew the trumpets and those who sang
together sounded like one person as they praised and
thanked the Lord. They sang as others played their
trumpets, cymbals, and other instruments. They praised
the Lord with this song:
“He is good;
his love continues forever.”
Then the Temple of the Lord was filled with a cloud. 14
The priests could not continue their work because of the
cloud, because the Lord’s glory filled the Temple of
God.
1 Peter 2:5 (NCV)
5 You also are like living stones, so let yourselves be
used to build a spiritual temple—to be holy priests who
offer spiritual sacrifices to God. He will accept those
sacrifices through Jesus Christ.
1 Peter 2:9 (NCV)
9 But you are a chosen people, royal priests, a holy
nation, a people for God’s own possession. You were
chosen to tell about the wonderful acts of God, who
called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.
Hebrews 13:15-16 (NCV)
15 So through Jesus let us always offer to God our
sacrifice of praise, coming from lips that speak his
name. 16 Do not forget to do good to others, and share
with them, because such sacrifices please God.
Hebrews 11:6 (NCV)
6 Without faith no one can please God. Anyone who comes
to God must believe that he is real and that he rewards
those who truly want to find him.
Colossians 1:10-14 (NCV)
10 ...so that you will live the kind of life that honors
and pleases the Lord in every way. You will produce
fruit in every good work and grow in the knowledge of
God. 11 God will strengthen you with his own great power
so that you will not give up when troubles come, but you
will be patient. 12 And you will joyfully give thanks to
the Father who has made you able to have a share in all
that he has prepared for his people in the kingdom of
light. 13 God has freed us from the power of darkness,
and he brought us into the kingdom of his dear Son. 14
The Son paid for our sins, and in him we have
forgiveness.
Romans 12:1-2 (NCV)
Give Your Lives to God
12 So brothers and sisters, since God has shown us great
mercy, I beg you to offer your lives as a living
sacrifice to him. Your offering must be only for God and
pleasing to him, which is the spiritual way for you to
worship. 2 Do not be shaped by this world; instead be
changed within by a new way of thinking. Then you will
be able to decide what God wants for you; you will know
what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect.
1 Timothy 2:1-6 (NCV)
2 First, I tell you to pray for all people, asking God
for what they need and being thankful to him. 2 Pray for
rulers and for all who have authority so that we can
have quiet and peaceful lives full of worship and
respect for God. 3 This is good, and it pleases God our
Savior, 4 who wants all people to be saved and to know
the truth. 5 There is one God and one mediator so that
human beings can reach God. That way is through Christ
Jesus, who is himself human. 6 He gave himself as a
payment to free all people. He is proof that came at the
right time.
