Today we will discuss the good aspects of glorifying God. God is our Creator and He is our Father. He wants us to always glorify Him and give Him glory. Glorifying God does not mean just praying to Him or praising Him or worshiping Him but it really means glorifying Him in every action we take in our daily lives.
When we read the story of Daniel in the Bible, we see that he stood firm in his faith while those around him were unbelievers. He refused to eat the king’s food and through this he glorified God.
On the other hand, if we look at Jesus, we see that his whole life was devoted to glorifying God. When we do God’s will and remain steadfast in His ways, we glorify Him to the world.
When we help the weak, stand by the helpless, help the needy, forgive the wrongdoers, and live with integrity, we truly glorify God.
