How To Glorify the Lord
« on: June 06, 2011, 03:52:03 AM »
II.    Message - How To Glorify The Lord (Psalm 34:1-10)

 

A.    You Glorify Him When You Choose To Glorify The Lord (34:1)

 

1.        Humans are NOT robots - we have a free-will that must be exercised toward God - Note David’s “I WILL” (34:1)!

2.     I don’t glorify Christ Jesus automatically - I must choose ever day WHOM I am going to honour and glorify! I used to spend so much time and energy glorifying myself, and my sin before I got saved - it was my choice! But now that I am saved, I choose to glorify my Saviour!

3.     It requires an effort, strive - pay the price - not easy!

4.        King David had made the choice as a child, long before he became king, and God knew it (Acts 13:22)

5.        Don’t wait until you are rich and famous before you start to honour the Lord - Don’t wait until heaven - choose today!

B.    You Can Glorify Him In A Variety of Ways (34:1,2)

 

1.     By Blessing the Lord - doing things “just for Him” to make Him happy (like with your wife, husband or children) That’s blessing!

2.     By Praising the Lord - By listing all the things that God has done JUST for YOU! Tell Him you realize it - don’t take it for granted!

 

a.     Gave me my life, and my each and every breath!

b.     Left His home above and came to earth to die in my place

c.     Sought me out, and patiently waited for me to turn from sin

d.     Wrote me a Bible that I could trust

e.     Saved my soul from hell and gave me eternal life

f.      Gave me a home in heaven

g.     Gave me a family to beat all

h.     Called me to serve Him and preach and teach His word!

3.     By Boasting of the Lord - Spend time in your conversations boasting about God! Boast about your Saviour! The One you love!

 

a.     What is it that YOU boast about? YOUR accomplishments?

b.     YOUR Possessions?

c.     Or your wonderful Lord? To the real Christian, this ought not be so unusual! You ought to be shouting AMEN!

 

4.     By magnifying the Lord (34:3a)

 

a.     Get up-close to Him! Let Him fill-up your whole view!

b.     Spend time making Him BIG again in the eyes of this world!

 

5.        When?  At All Times! See Job 1:20-22! Learn that God is not to blame for all your troubles! Don’t be a “fair-weather” Christian. Learn to praise Him anyway!

E.     You Glorify Him When You Fear Him - Nothing Else (34:7,9)

 

1.        Requires Spiritual Perception - We walk by faith and not by sight - there is more to life than what meets the eye

2.     God wants you to fear ONLY Him

3.     You can only do that once you come to know how He works - He does not always work visibly - but spiritually (2 Kings 6)

4.        Dealing with spiritual battles (1 Pet 5:8 )

5.     God is looking for us to stay on the winning side (Eph 4:27)

 

a.     Don’t fear your co-workers - Live for our Lord Jesus! It is HIM to whom we must answer, not them!

b.     Don’t fear your family - Live for our Lord Jesus!

c.     Don’t fear friends (pressure to conform) - Live for the Lord!

d.     Live the life that Christ wants you to live (1 Cor 6:19,20)! That will truly glorify Him!

F.     You Glorify Him When You Fully Trust Him (34:8 )

 

1.        None of this “half-hearted” stuff here! Can’t play on any sports team I know of if you are not 100% behind the coach

2.     To trust the God of this Bible is to take Him at His word:

 

a.     For salvation from sin

b.     For finding His will for your life

c.     For everything you can’t do! Learn to fully trust Him (Pr 3:5)

 

3.     This is called “tasting” and finding out that He is good - enjoy!
