5
May God, who gives this patience and encouragement, help you live in
complete harmony with each other, as is fitting for followers of
Christ Jesus.
6
Then all of you can join together with one voice, giving praise and
glory to God, The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
7
Therefore, accept each other just as Christ has accepted you so that
God will be given glory.
8
Remember that Christ came as A Servant to the Jews to show that God
is true to the promises He made to their ancestors.
9
He also came so that the Gentiles might give glory to God for His
mercies to them. That is what the psalmist meant when he wrote:
“For
this, I will praise you among the Gentiles;
I
will sing praises to your name.”
10
And in another place it is written,
“Rejoice
with His people,
you
Gentiles.”
11
And yet again,
“Praise
The Lord, all you Gentiles.
Praise Him, all you people of the earth.”
12
And in another place Isaiah said,
“The
heir to David’s throne will come,
and
He will rule over the Gentiles.
They
will place their hope on Him.”
13
I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with
joy and peace because you trust in Him. Then you will overflow with
confident hope through the power of The Holy Spirit.
Romans
16:27 NLT
All
glory to The Only Wise God, through Jesus Christ, forever. Amen.

ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and

Corinthians 4:13-15 NLT
13
But we continue to preach because we have the same kind of faith the
psalmist had when he said, “I believed in God, so I spoke.”
14
We know that God, who raised The Lord Jesus, will also raise us with
Jesus and present us to Himself together with you.
15
All of this is for your benefit. And as God’s grace reaches more
and more people, there will be great thanksgiving, and God will
receive more and more glory.
II
Thessalonians 1:11,12 NLT
11
So we keep on praying for you, asking our God to enable you to live a
life worthy of His call. May He give you the power to accomplish all
the good things your faith prompts you to do.
12
Then the name of our Lord Jesus will be honored because of the way
you live, and you will be honored along with Him. This is all made
possible because of the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ.
I
Peter 4:10,11 NLT
10
God has given each of you a gift from His great variety of spiritual
gifts. Use them well to serve one another.
11
Do you have the gift of speaking? Then speak as though God himself
were speaking through you. Do you have the gift of helping others? Do
it with all the strength and energy that God supplies. Then
everything you do will bring glory to God through Jesus Christ. All
glory and power to Him forever and ever! Amen.

with their faces to the ground and worshiped God.

and
thanksgiving and honor
and
power and strength belong to our God
forever and ever! Amen.”
Revelation
14:6,7 KJV
6
And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having The
Everlasting Gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and
to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,
7
Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to Him; for the
hour of His judgment is come: and worship Him that made heaven, and
earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.
Revelation 15:1-4 NLT (The Song of Moses and of
The Lamb)
1
Then I saw in heaven another marvelous event of great significance.
Seven angels were holding the seven last plagues, which would bring
God’s wrath to completion.
2
I saw before me what seemed to be a glass sea mixed with fire. And on
it stood all the people who had been victorious over the beast and
his statue and the number representing his name. They were all
holding harps that God had given them.
3
And they were singing the song of Moses, the servant of God, and the
song of The Lamb:
“Great
and marvelous are your works,
O
Lord God, The Almighty.
Just
and true are your ways,
O
King of the nations.
4
Who will not fear you, Lord,
and
glorify your name?
For
you alone are holy.
All
nations will come and worship before you,
for
your righteous deeds have been revealed.”
What is man's purpose, it is to bring praise and glory
to The Living God, who created us!
Prayer:
Psalm
34:3 KJV
O
magnify The Lord with me, and let us exalt His name together.
