God created us people in His image to reflect His glory on the earth. When we bring glory to God, we fulfill our primary purpose.
Jesus taught, “Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” [1]
When we ask God to intervene in our lives and do miracles to help us, we are in a sense asking Him to be glorified in our lives.
“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.” [2]
Those who are victorious over the beast, over his image, over his mark and over his number (666), stand on a sea of glass with harps of God, and sing:
“Who shall not fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all nations shall come and worship before You, for Your judgments have been manifested.” [3]
So, let our purpose be to glorify the Lord...
“Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let Your glory be above all the earth.” [4]
[1] Matthew 5:16
[2] Psalm 50:15
[3] Revelation 15:2, 4
[4] Psalm 57:5
