Does it Glorify God?

"Whatever you do, do all to the glory of God."

1C0 10:31 NKJV

When you're about to do something and you're not sure if you should, ask yourself, "Will doing this glorify God?" If you follow that rule, you won't go wrong in life. Let's get specific. If you earn your money honestly, then it's yours to spend as you wish. Once you give God His portion, which begins at 10 percent, you get to choose what you will do with the rest. However, your financial decisions have consequences that affect not only you but your family. When you go into debt you can't repay, they suffer with you. So does your reputation with others. The question is not even can you afford it, but will it bring glory to God? Will He be pleased?

And how about your relationships? You're single, lonely, and longing for companionship. So, you find someone you really like. Today when unchecked passion leads to sex before marriage, society doesn't blink at it. But as a redeemed child of God, you are different. Jesus said we are in the world, but not of it. That means we live by a different set of rules: scriptural ones. Perhaps your partner will see your refusal of sexual intimacy as rejection. And they may even decide to leave you. What should you do? Ask yourself, "Will this glorify God? Will He be pleased?" You say, "Pleasing God isn't easy." It never has been. And the Bible doesn't say it will be.

But if you want to live with joy, self-respect, confidence, and integrity, you have to choose the right path. And that's the path which always brings glory to God.

You have to choose the right path.
