Romans 4:2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God.

What should we ever have to boast about? Maybe we have made it big in the business world, or the pop world or just recognised as the best…

But that is nothing before our God. Nothing before our creator. Nothing before the one who made us in the first place!

We can look back at the great people from the bible and marvel at what they did, but nothing stands out more than what God has done for us.

Give God the glory!

1 Corinthians 1:29 that no flesh should glory in His presence.

It is not our place to bring glory to ourselves in the presence of God but to glorify God; and not so that He will glorify us, but simply to glorify God.

Don’t get caught up in doing many things for God so that you can look good in the eyes of others because that is not aimed at pleasing God but pleasing yourself!

I love giving others God’s Word so that they can draw closer to God and that is my aim, to be able to usher people closer to their God.

We each have a personal relationship with God and spending time in a devotional draws us closer to Him. Rejoice in God and in Him alone!

Psalm 34:2 My soul shall make its boast in the Lord; the humble shall hear of it and be glad.

One thing we need to be doing as much as possible is giving glory to our Lord and Saviour so that other people get to hear us!

We may not be able to stand up and preach on a street corner, but we can show people that we believe in God and trust in Him!

Just seeing that glimmer of light in us may be what will turn someone round to find out about this awesome God we worship.

Don’t hide God’s light but let it shine through you daily!
