We 'have' all received on grace after another, but we only recognize the glory of God in this moment 'when we wake to the one grace after another'. ~ Ann Voskamp
The Glory Of God quotes by Ann Voskamp
Whatever you do, think of the Glory of God as your main goal. ~ John Bosco
The Glory Of God quotes by John Bosco
Man's wisdom detracts from the glory of God, who is more honoured by the simplicity of the gospel, than luxuriance of wit. ~ Stephen Charnock
The Glory Of God quotes by Stephen Charnock
Remain at your post and do your duty - for the glory of God and His kingdom. ~ Charles Colson
The Glory Of God quotes by Charles Colson
The heavens are telling the glory of God; and the firmament proclaims his handiwork. Day to day pours forth speech, and night to night declares knowledge. There is no speech, nor are there words; their voice is not heard; yet their voice goes out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them he has set a tent for the sun, which comes forth like a bridegroom leaving his chamber, and like a strong man runs its course with joy. Its rising is from the end of the heavens, and its circuit to the end of them; and there is nothing hid from its heat. (Ps 19:1-6) ~ J. Budziszewski
The Glory Of God quotes by J. Budziszewski
Celestial marriage is for the fullness of the glory of god. It is the crowning glory. A man has no right to one wife unless he is worthy of two ... There is no provision made for those who have had the chance & opperternity and have disregarded that law. Men who disregard that law are in the same situation as if they broke any other law. they are transgressors. ~ Francis M. Lyman
The Glory Of God quotes by Francis M. Lyman
There is a time when the soul lives in God, and a time when God lives in the soul. What is appropriate to one state is inconsistent with the other.

When God lives in the soul it ought to abandon itself entirely to his providence. When the soul lives in God it is obliged to procure for itself carefully and very regularly, every means it can devise by which to arrive at the divine union. The whole procedure is marked out; the readings, the examinations, the resolutions. The guide is always at hand and everything is by rule, even the hours for conversation.

When God lives in the soul it has nothing left of self, but only that which the spirit which actuates it imparts to it at each moment. Nothing is provided for the future, no road is marked out . . . No more books with marked passages for such a soul; often enough it is even deprived of a regular directior, for God allows it no other support than that which he gives it himself. Its dwelling is in darkness, forgetfulness, abandonment, death and nothingness. . .

Everything that others discover with great difficulty this soul finds in abandonment, and what they guard with care in order to be able to find it again, this soul receives at the moment there is occasion for it, and afterwards relinquishes so as to admit nothing but exactly what God desires it to have in order to live by him alone.

The former soul undertakes an infinity of good works for the glory of God, the latter is often c ~ Jean-Pierre De Caussade
The Glory Of God quotes by Jean-Pierre De Caussade
If there are differences and divisions, let them be healed by counsel, by careful words of loving confrontation that bring repentance in the heart. May none of God's people have to know what it is like to have someone they worship with turn on them with wounding words. If you have a complaint against anyone, you must, for the sake of your soul and the sake of gospel unity and the sake of Christ, go to them. May there be no gossip, no hidden anger or bitterness. "May our lives be all covered with that harvest of righteousness that Jesus Christ produces to the glory of God." (Philippians 1:11) (Moffatt 1922). ~ Russ Kennedy
The Glory Of God quotes by Russ Kennedy
Your pain has a purpose. Your problems, struggles, heartaches, and hassles cooperate toward one end-the glory of God. ~ Max Lucado
The Glory Of God quotes by Max Lucado
O most sacred, most loving heart of Jesus, thou art concealed in the Holy Eucharist, and thou beatest for us still ... Thou art the heart of the Most High made man ... Thy Sacred Heart is the instrument and organ of Thy love. It did beat for us. It yearned for us. It ached for our salvation. It was on fire through zeal, that the glory of God might be manifested in and by us ... In worshipping thee I worship my incarnate God, my Emmanuel ~ John Henry Newman
The Glory Of God quotes by John Henry Newman
The work of God in the cross of Christ strikes us as awe-inspiring only after we have first been awed by the glory of God. ~ Matt Chandler
The Glory Of God quotes by Matt Chandler
It's such a biblical posture in worship that speaks of reverence. If you look through the Bible, there's a whole host of people who faced up to the glory of God and found themselves facedown in worship. So the album weaves through a theme of reverence, wonder, and mystery in worship, things I feel we really need to grasp more of in our worship expressions. I know that I do! ~ Matt Redman
The Glory Of God quotes by Matt Redman
Is the Church inimical to science? Growing up as a Catholic and a scientist - I don't see it. One truth is revealed truth, the other is scientific truth. If you really believe that creation is good, there can be no harm in studying science. The more we learn about creation - the way it emerged - it just adds to the glory of God. Personally, I've never seen a conflict. ~ Joseph Murray
The Glory Of God quotes by Joseph Murray
We are called to reveal the glory of God through living with excellence in the mundane places of life. ~ David Robinson
The Glory Of God quotes by David Robinson
The ultimate goal of the universe is to show the glory of God. ~ Rick Warren
The Glory Of God quotes by Rick Warren
If you love anything better than God you are idolaters: if there is anything you would not give up for God it is your idol: if there is anything that you seek with greater fervor than you seek the glory of God, that is your idol, and conversion means a turning from every idol. ~ Charles Spurgeon
The Glory Of God quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Behold the glory of Jesus means that we begin to find Christ beautiful for who he is in himself. It means a kind of prayer in which we are not simply coming to him to get his forgiveness, his help for our needs, his favor and blessing. Rather, the consideration of his character, words, and work on our behalf becomes inherently satisfying, enjoyable, comforting, and strengthening.289 Owen insisted that it was crucial that Christians be enabled to do this. He reasoned that if the beauty and glory of Christ do not capture our imaginations, dominate our waking thought, and fill our hearts with longing and desire - then something else will. We will be "continually ruminating" on something or some things as our hope and joy. Whatever those things are, they will "frame our souls" and "transform us into their likeness." If we don't behold the glory of God in the face of Christ, then something else will rule our lives. We will be slaves. ~ Timothy Keller
The Glory Of God quotes by Timothy Keller
Love is doing what will enthrall the beloved with the greatest and longest joy. What will enthrall the beloved this way is the glory of God. Love means doing all we can, at whatever cost to ourselves, to help people be enthralled with the glory of God. When they are, they are satisfied and God is glorified. Therefore loving people and glorifying God are one. ~ John Piper
The Glory Of God quotes by John Piper
If we would turn the time we spent discussing the other's life into prayer time instead, no telling what would happen to the glory of God. ~ Beth Moore
The Glory Of God quotes by Beth Moore
His aim was the glory of God, but the glory of Philip pleased him too. ~ Ken Follett
The Glory Of God quotes by Ken Follett
Resolved, never to do any manner of thing, whether in soul or body, less or more, but what tends to the glory of God; nor be, nor suffer it, if I can avoid it. ~ Jonathan Edwards
The Glory Of God quotes by Jonathan Edwards
Creation is the work of the Word; it is also, and by this very fact, His manifestation, his outward affirmation; and this is why the world is like a divine language, for those who know how to understand it: Caeli enarrant gloriam Dei (The heavens declare the glory of God, Ps. XIX:2) ~ Rene Guenon
The Glory Of God quotes by Rene Guenon
Both Genesis and science say that the universe is geared to supporting human life. But Genesis says more. It says that you, as a human being, bear the image of God. The starry heavens show the glory of God, yes; but they are not made in God's image. You are. That makes you unique. It gives you incalculable value. The galaxies are unimaginably large compared with you. However, you know that they exist, but they don't know that you exist. You are more significant, therefore, than a galaxy. ~ John C. Lennox
The Glory Of God quotes by John C. Lennox
The greatness and the glory of God shine forth marvelously in all His works, and is to be read above all in the open book of the heavens. ~ Galileo Galilei
The Glory Of God quotes by Galileo Galilei
The pride of the peacock is the glory of God. ~ William Blake
The Glory Of God quotes by William Blake
Willingness to be damned for the glory of God. ~ Samuel Hopkins
The Glory Of God quotes by Samuel Hopkins
The glory of God in you is what differentiates you ~ Sunday Adelaja
The Glory Of God quotes by Sunday Adelaja
We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us, it's in everyone. ~ Nelson Mandela
The Glory Of God quotes by Nelson Mandela
To live coram Deo is to live one's entire life in the presence of God, under the authority of God, to the glory of God. ~ R.C. Sproul
The Glory Of God quotes by R.C. Sproul
If you are in Christ, you've been chosen to transcend the borders of your own glory, to reach out toward a greater glory, the glory of God. ~ Paul David Tripp
The Glory Of God quotes by Paul David Tripp
Much is said in our expanding world about the need to celebrate diversity. Of course we are a diverse community; that is how a society like ours is constituted. But our strength is not to be found in our diversity; our power to influence the world for good will not come through our diversity. Some seem to act as though the Lord has said, "Be diverse, and if ye are not diverse, ye are not mine." No, we are to strive to achieve unity in spite of our diversity. "We are seeking to establish a oneness," Elder John Taylor observed, "under the guidance and direction of the Almighty. . . . If there is any principle for which we contend with greater tenacity than another, it is this oneness. . . . To the world this principle is a gross error, for amongst them it is every man for himself; every man follows his own ideas, his own religion, his own morals, and the course in everything that suits his own notions. But the Lord dictates differently. We are under His guidance, and we should seek to be one with him and with all the authorities of His Church and kingdom on the earth in all the affairs of life. . . . This is what we are after, and when we have attained to this ourselves, we want to teach the nations of the earth the same pure principles that have emanated from the Great Eloheim. We want Zion to rise and shine that the glory of God may be manifest in her midst. . . . We never intend to stop until this point is attained through the teaching and guidance of the Lord and our obedie ~ Robert L. Millet
The Glory Of God quotes by Robert L. Millet
A man's most glorious actions will at last be found to be but glorious sins, if he hath made himself, and not the glory of God, the end of those actions. ~ Thomas Brooks
The Glory Of God quotes by Thomas Brooks
We tend to set up success in Christian work as our purpose, but our purpose should be to display the glory of God in human life, to live a life "hidden with Christ in God" in our everyday human conditions. ~ Oswald Chambers
The Glory Of God quotes by Oswald Chambers
The first element in a symmetrical life is work. Three-fourths of our time is probably spent in work. Of course the meaning of it is that our work should be just as religious as our worship, and unless we can work for the glory of God three-fourths of life remains unsanctified. The proof that work is religious is that most of Christ's life was spent in work. During a large part of the first thirty years of His life He worked with the hammer and the plane, making ploughs and yokes and household furniture. Christ's public ministry occupied only about two and a half years of His earthly life; the great bulk of His time was simply spent in doing common everyday tasks, and ever since then work has had a new meaning. ~ Henry Drummond
The Glory Of God quotes by Henry Drummond
The context of the gospel message is not our benefit or our salvation; the context of the gospel is the supremacy of Christ and the glory of God. This story of the good news is personal, but it is also cosmic. ~ Matt Chandler
The Glory Of God quotes by Matt Chandler
The world has been wrong about you. They've hated your glory - just as the Evil One hates the glory of God. But we need your gift. Come forth. ~ John Eldredge
The Glory Of God quotes by John Eldredge
It had never occurred to me that what we call "God" could be experienced. For me, the word had referred to a being who might or might not exist, and in whom one could believe or disbelieve or about whom one could remain uncertain. But I realized there is a cloud of witnesses, Christian and non-Christian, for whom God, the sacred, is real, an element of experience, not a hypothetical being who may or may not exist and whom we can only believe in. For the first time in my life, I understood the affirmation that the earth is full of "the glory of God." Perhaps ~ Marcus J. Borg
The Glory Of God quotes by Marcus J. Borg
Whether it is Bach or Mozart that we hear in church, we have a sense in either case of what gloria Dei, the glory of God, means. The mystery of infinite beauty is there and enables us to experience the presence of God more truly and vividly than in many sermons. But there are already signs of danger to come. Subjective experience and passion are still held in check by the order of the musical universe, reflecting as it does the order of the divine creation itself. But there is already the threat of invasion by the virtuoso mentality, the vanity of technique, which is no longer the servant of the whole but wants to push itself to the fore. During the nineteenth century, the century of self-emancipating subjectivity, this led in many places to the obscuring of the sacred by the operatic. The dangers that had forced the Council of Trent to intervene were back again. In similar fashion, Pope Pius X tried to remove the operatic element from the liturgy and declared Gregorian chant and the great polyphony of the age of the Catholic Reformation (of which Palestrina was the outstanding representative) to be the standard for liturgical music. A clear distinction was made between liturgical music and religious music in general, just as visual art in the liturgy has to conform to different standards from those employed in religious art in general. Art in the liturgy has a very specific responsibility, and precisely as such does it serve as a wellspring of culture, which in the final ana ~ Benedict XVI
The Glory Of God quotes by Benedict XVI
Here, no mercy is shown. One hates one's fellow man to the glory of God. ~ Selma Lagerlof
The Glory Of God quotes by Selma Lagerlof
What, for some, is sin, others do to the glory of God. And the good Dr. Pentecost's remarks notwithstanding , I intend to go home tonight and smoke a cigar to the glory of God. It is a kind of incense drifting to Heaven. ~ Charles Spurgeon
The Glory Of God quotes by Charles Spurgeon
Music's only purpose should be for the glory of God and the recreation
of the human spirit. ~ Johann Sebastian Bach
The Glory Of God quotes by Johann Sebastian Bach
It is better to seek the glory of God than human beings. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
The Glory Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Inspire others to live their lives for the glory of God. ~ Paul Baloche
The Glory Of God quotes by Paul Baloche
The Bible's historical accuracy is a reminder that while "the heavens declare the glory of God," there's also plenty of evidence among the rubble and ruins. ~ Charles Colson
The Glory Of God quotes by Charles Colson
The glory of God is that you can't outs in His grace. ~ Matt Chandler
The Glory Of God quotes by Matt Chandler
If God created everything, and if man is created in God's image, and if man can dream a fate greater than the one set out for him by God, could God dream a fate greater than his own? ~ Michael Anthony
The Glory Of God quotes by Michael Anthony
How is it more for the glory of God to save man irresistibly, than to save him as a free agent, by such grace as he may either concur or resist? ~ John Wesley
The Glory Of God quotes by John Wesley
The God who is worthy to be known and served for who He is, is Himself the answer to this world's longings. And those who know Him best are best equipped to serve Him. He is their message. If we have discovered the glory of God in the face of Christ, we must not hold back. The God of glory must be made known. ~ Tom Wells
The Glory Of God quotes by Tom Wells
When we come to describe musical instruments we should treat them as the artworks of outstanding, intelligent craftsmen who have brought them into being by manual labor and intellectual effort. By applying precise plans to suitable materials they have skillfully fashioned instruments that publish the glory of God, or (which is perfectly legitimate) give pleasure to mankind with their sweet harmonious sounds. - Michael Praetorius, Syntagma Musicum (1619) ~ Geoffrey Burgess
The Glory Of God quotes by Geoffrey Burgess
be to the glory of God, in full surrender to His will, in full assurance of faith, in the name of Jesus, and with a perseverance that, if need be, refuses to be denied. ~ Andrew Murray
The Glory Of God quotes by Andrew Murray
Our Lord Jesus Christ added nothing to God in his essential being and glory, either by what He did or suffered. True, blessedly and gloriously true. He manifested the glory of God to us, but he added nought to God ... Christ's goodness and rightousness reached unto His saints in the earth but God was high above and beyond it all ... ~ Arthur W. Pink
The Glory Of God quotes by Arthur W. Pink
Irenaeus, very disciple of the apostle John, wrote: "The glory of God is the human being fully alive and the life of the human consists in beholding God" (emphasis added). ~ Ann Voskamp
The Glory Of God quotes by Ann Voskamp
We have lived for too long with the arts as the pretty bit around the edge with the reality as a non-artistic thing in the middle. But the world is charged with the grandeur of God. Why should we not celebrate and rejoice in that? And the answer sometimes is because the world is also a messy and nasty and horrible place. And, of course, some artists make a living out of representing the world as a very ugly and wicked and horrible place. And our culture has slid in both directions so that we have got sentimental art on the one hand and brutalist art in the other. And if you want to find sentimental art then, tragically, the church is often a good place to look, as people when they want to paint religious pictures screen out the nasty bits. But genuine art, I believe, takes seriously the fact that the world is full of the glory of God, and that it will be full as the waters cover the sea, and, at present (Rom 8), it is groaning in travail. Genuine art responds to that triple awareness: of what is true (the beauty that is there), of what will be true (the ultimate beauty), and of the pain of the present, and holds them together as the psalms do, and asks why and what and where are we. You can do that in music, and you can do that in painting. And our generation needs us to do that not simply to decorate the gospel but to announce the gospel. ~ N.T. Wright
The Glory Of God quotes by N.T. Wright
The history of the Church is the rise and progress of the kingdom of heaven upon earth, for the glory of God and the salvation of the world. ~ Philip Schaff
The Glory Of God quotes by Philip Schaff
For it appears, that all that is ever spoken of in the Scripture as an ultimate end of God's works, is included in that one phrase, the glory of God; which ~ John Piper
The Glory Of God quotes by John Piper
Generally speaking, "an eye single to the glory of God" means sacrifice. It means that instead of endlessly doing what we want to do, we have to do what the Lord wants us to do, but we have to do it in his way when he wants us to do it. ~ Hartman Rector, Jr.
The Glory Of God quotes by Hartman Rector, Jr.
Our sincere and innermost anxiety is not that we are insufficient. Our sincere and innermost fear is that we are prevailing and dominate. Our proficiency, not our incompetence is the misapprehension that most startles and worries us. It's when we contemplate in retrospect that we demand of ourselves why am I extraordinary, striking, talented, and remarkable? Essentially, Why can't you? A child of God blessed from the crown of you head to the soul of your feet. There is nonentity progressive about shrinking so individuals won't feel apprehensive around you. Every individual is predestined to shine. Humans were conceived to manifest the exaltation, magnificence, splendour, beauty or the glory of God imbedded in us . this gift is not some individual but in everyone ~ Archibald Gumiro
The Glory Of God quotes by Archibald Gumiro
Make dads the godly leaders [of the family] with the women in submission, raising kids for the glory of God. ~ Randall Terry
The Glory Of God quotes by Randall Terry
The next morning, between services, in an alcove space used for private prayer, Heinrich confessed to an elder that he had succumbed to the temptation of lust and could no longer be of service to the church. He said that he had seen more of God's glory in the body of a half-naked girl than in the worship services of thirty years combined. That he would like to continue mediating on the glory of God in this fashion. ~ Jamie Quatro
The Glory Of God quotes by Jamie Quatro
Indeed, when God's glory dwells in me, there is nothing too far away, nothing too painful, nothing too strange or too familiar that it cannot contain and renew by its touch. Every time I recognize the glory of God in me and give it space to manifest itself to me, all that is human can be brought there and nothing will be the same again. ~ Henri Nouwen
The Glory Of God quotes by Henri Nouwen
The aim and final reason of all music should be none else but the glory of God and refreshing the soul. Where this is not observed there will be no music, but only a devilish hubbub. ~ Johann Sebastian Bach
The Glory Of God quotes by Johann Sebastian Bach
HOW SHOULD THE SOUL not take wings
when from the Glory of God

It hears a sweet, kindly call:
"Why are you here, soul? Arise!"

How should a fish not leap fast
into the sea from dry land

When from the ocean so cool
the sound of the waves reaches its

How should the falcon not fly
back to his king from the hunt

When from the falconer's drum
it hears to call: "Oh, come back"?

Why should not every Sufi
begin to dance atom-like

Around the Sun of duration
that saves from impermanence?

What graciousness and what beauty?
What life-bestowing! What grace!

If anyone does without that, woe-
what err, what suffering!

Oh fly , of fly, O my soul-bird,
fly to your primordial home!

You have escaped from the cage now-
your wings are spread in the air.

Oh travel from brackish water
now to the fountain of life!

Return from the place of the sandals
now to the high seat of souls!

Go on! Go on! we are going,
and we are coming, O soul,

From this world of separation
to union, a world beyond worlds!

How long shall we here in the dust-world
like children fill our skirts

With earth and with stones without value,
with broken shards without worth?


Let's take our hand from the dust gr ~ Rumi
The Glory Of God quotes by Rumi
According to one definition, doctrine is teaching from God about God that directs us to the glory of God. ~ Anonymous
The Glory Of God quotes by Anonymous
And I go back to Eden, in my mind, to imagine what it is going to be like for you and me in heaven. I suppose it will be a new and marvelous paradise, where love will exist in its purest form, where the beauty of diversity will be understood for the first time, where self-hatred will fade into an agreement with with God about the splendor of His creation, where physical beauty will no longer be used as a commodity, where you and I will feel free in our sincere love for others, ourselves, and God. And I suppose it will be in heaven that you and I actually understand each other, all the drama of the lifeboat a distant memory, all the arguments we has seeming so inconsequential, and the glory of God before us in all His majesty, shining like sunlight through our souls. ~ Donald Miller
The Glory Of God quotes by Donald Miller
Prepare yourself, Church, to be a carrier of the Glory of God in these later days. ~ Dr Paul Gitwaza
The Glory Of God quotes by Dr Paul Gitwaza
If this [the Mysterium cosmographicum] is published, others will perhaps make discoveries I might have reserved for myself. But we are all ephemeral creatures (and none more so than I). I have, therefore, for the Glory of God, who wants to be recognized from the book of Nature, that these things may be published as quickly as possible. The more others build on my work the happier I shall be. ~ Johannes Kepler
The Glory Of God quotes by Johannes Kepler
The glory of God is intelligence, or, in other words, light and truth. ~ D & Goeting, NLM Gath
The Glory Of God quotes by D & Goeting, NLM Gath
We had been found and brought to this place so near to the sky we could hear the voice of the King of Creation. The Lord had saved us and delivered us, as the Torah vowed he would. I would have been willing to do anything for the glory of God as I walked through the gate, except forgive him for what I had lost. ~ Alice Hoffman
The Glory Of God quotes by Alice Hoffman
For Calvin, the creation reflects its Creator at every point. Image after images flashed in front of our eyes, as Calvin attempts to convey the multiplicity of ways in which the creation witnesses to its Creator: it is like a visible garment, which the invisible God dons in order to make himself known; it is like a book in which the name on the Creator is written as its author; it is like a theater, in which the glory of God is publicly displayed; it is like a mirror, in which the works and wisdom of God are reflected. ~ Alister E. McGrath
The Glory Of God quotes by Alister E. McGrath
Productivity is effectively stewarding your gifts, talents, time, energy, and enthusiasm for the good of others and the glory of God. ~ Tim Challies
The Glory Of God quotes by Tim Challies
Every battle you have to fight, is an opportunity for the glory of God to be revealed.The greater the obstacles, the greater the victory. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
The Glory Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
For nothing so much disturbs the mind, though it be done for some beneficial purpose, as to innovate and introduce strange things, and most of all when this is done in matters relating to divine worship and the glory of God. ~ Saint John Chrysostom
The Glory Of God quotes by Saint John Chrysostom
Those who shine with the glory of God are destined to become walking spiritual experiences for others. Those who covet being in His presence, soak in His love, quiet their souls and allow the Lord to change them, become transformed and grow from glory to glory. They become the ones who step up during such a time as this. ~ Julia Loren
The Glory Of God quotes by Julia Loren
You and I live to manifest the Glory of God. ~ LeCrae
The Glory Of God quotes by LeCrae
Our choice to use or not use social media is not about social media--it is about the glory of God. ~ Mandy J. Hoffman
The Glory Of God quotes by Mandy J. Hoffman
Monsters were declared to be warnings against sin, individual or collective, and demonstrations of the anger and the glory of God. ~ Dudley Wilson
The Glory Of God quotes by Dudley Wilson
Sin causes the glory of God to be shut out ~ Sunday Adelaja
The Glory Of God quotes by Sunday Adelaja
Why does humankind love to seek the glory of one another instead of the glory of God? ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
The Glory Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
The glory of God is upon you. ~ Lailah Gifty Akita
The Glory Of God quotes by Lailah Gifty Akita
Home is the normal
whatever place you happen to start from and return to without having to answer questions. It's a metaphor that may seem to fit reduced expectations. We no longer seek towers that would reach to the heavens; we've abandoned attempts to prove that we live in a chain of being whose every link bears witness to the glory of God. We merely seek assurance that we find ourselves in a place where we know our way about. ~ Susan Neiman
The Glory Of God quotes by Susan Neiman
Ministry takes place when divine resources meet human needs through loving channels to the glory of God. ~ Warren W. Wiersbe
The Glory Of God quotes by Warren W. Wiersbe
We had allowed ourselves to become distracted on the way to the Crusade, never laid eyes on a Turk, turned to pillage and rapine among the Hungarians and Greeks in order to reach the East ... all for the glory of God, of course, until defeated, ~ H.P. Lovecraft
The Glory Of God quotes by H.P. Lovecraft
Of course sane people always thought the aim of marriage was the procreation of children to the glory of God or according to the plan of Nature; ~ G.K. Chesterton
The Glory Of God quotes by G.K. Chesterton
For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; ~ Anonymous
The Glory Of God quotes by Anonymous
The Cathedrals were built to the glory of God; New York was built to the glory of Mammon. ~ Kenneth Clark
The Glory Of God quotes by Kenneth Clark
Here's some soul homework, by way of Dallas Willard: If you want to really experience the flow of love as never before, the next time you are in a competitive situation [around work or relationship or whose kids are the highest achieving or looks or whatever], pray that the others around you will be more outstanding, more praised, and more used of God than yourself. Really pull for them and rejoice in their success. If Christians were universally to do this for each other, the earth would soon be filled with the knowledge of the glory of God. ~ John Ortberg
The Glory Of God quotes by John Ortberg
To love the glory of God more than our own glory is also to seek approval from God rather than other people. ~ John R.W. Stott
The Glory Of God quotes by John R.W. Stott
General revelation provides us with the knowledge that God exists. "The heavens declare the glory of God," says the psalmist. God's glory is displayed in the works of His hands. This display is so clear and manifest that no creature can possibly miss it. It unveils God's eternal power and deity (Romans 1:18-23). Revelation in nature does not give a full revelation of God. It does not give us the information about God the Redeemer that we find in the Bible. But the God who is revealed in nature is the same God who is revealed in Scripture. ~ R.C. Sproul
The Glory Of God quotes by R.C. Sproul
The problem in the church today is that we treat God's glory as a by-product and the missional activities of the church as the primary thing when the opposite is what Scripture demands. We don't proclaim the gospel and feed the poor and shepherd the flock in hopes that God's glory will be the by-product of those activities. We seek the revealing of the glory of God through the methods He prescribes so that His glory is revealed in the church. When that happens, the lost are converted, the poor are fed, the saints live in unity, and much more, all as by-products of God's manifest presence in the church. ~ James MacDonald
The Glory Of God quotes by James MacDonald
Priority number one for too many of us is not the glory of God but the blessing of ourselves. ~ David Shibley
The Glory Of God quotes by David Shibley
If we only understood that when we devote our lives to the glory of God, our existence on planet earth will leave marks
eternal marks. ~ Beth Moore
The Glory Of God quotes by Beth Moore
Will we let ourselves become a Church that calls and welcomes sinners with open arms, that gives courage and hope, or are we a Church closed in on herself? Are we a Church where the love of God dwells, where one cares for the other, where one prays for the other?
A final question: what can I, a weak fragile sinner, do? God says to you, Do not be afraid of holiness; do not be afraid to aim high, to let yourself be loved and purified by God; do not be afraid to let yourself be guided by the Holy Spirit. Let us be infected by the holiness of God. Every Christian is called to sanctity...; and sanctity does not consist especially in doing extraordinary things, but in allowing God to act. It is the meeting of our weakness with the strength of his grace, it is saving faith in his action that allows us to live in charity, to do everything with joy and humility, for the glory of God and as a service to our neighbor. ~ Pope Francis
The Glory Of God quotes by Pope Francis
God communicates himself to the understanding of the creature, in giving him the knowledge of his glory; and to the will of the creature, in giving him holiness, consisting primarily in the love of God: and in giving the creature happiness, chiefly consisting in joy in God.108 These are the sum of that emanation of divine fullness called in Scripture, the glory of God. The first part of this glory is called truth, the latter, grace, ~ John Piper
The Glory Of God quotes by John Piper
If I know the classical psychological theories well enough to pass my comps and can reformulate them in ways that can impress peer reviewers from the most prestigious journals, but have not the practical wisdom of love, I am only an intrusive muzak soothing the ego while missing the heart.

And if I can read tea leaves, throw the bones and manipulate spirits so as to understand the mysteries of the universe and forecast the future with scientific precision, and if I have achieved a renaissance education in both the exoteric and esoteric sciences that would rival Faust and know the equation to convert the mass of mountains into psychic energy and back again, but have not love, I do not even exist.

If I gain freedom from all my attachments and maintain constant alpha waves in my consciousness, showing perfect equanimity in all situations, ignoring every personal need and compulsively martyring myself for the glory of God, but this is not done freely from love, I have accomplished nothing.

Love is great-hearted and unselfish; love is not emotionally reactive, it does not seek to draw attention to itself. Love does not accuse or compare. It does not seek to serve itself at the expense of others. Love does not take pleasure in other peeople's sufferings, but rejoices when the truth is revealed and meaningful life restored. Love always bears reality as it is, extending mercy to all people in every situation. Love is faithful in all things, is con ~ Stephen Muse
The Glory Of God quotes by Stephen Muse
The glory of God is humankind fully alive. ~ Ignatius Of Loyola
The Glory Of God quotes by Ignatius Of Loyola
Christians must revive a centuries-old view of humankind as made in the image of God, the eternal Craftsman, and of work as a source of fulfillment and blessing not as a necessary drudgery to be undergone for the purpose of making money, but as a way of life in which the nature of man should find its proper exercise and delight and so fulfill itself to the glory of God. That it should, in fact, be thought of as a creative activity undertaken for the love of the work itself; and that man, made in God's image, should make things, as God makes them, for the sake of doing well a thing that is well worth doing. ~ Dorothy L. Sayers
The Glory Of God quotes by Dorothy L. Sayers
When our motive for good works is to garner the praise of others, we trade the glory of God for the glory of men. Glorious Lord, forgive me for the times I have exchanged Your glory for the praise of others. Help me keep my focus on You and You alone, rather than on the admiration of others. ~ Ava Pennington
The Glory Of God quotes by Ava Pennington
Those may justly be reckoned void of understanding that do not bless and praise God; nor do men ever rightly use their reason till they begin to be religious, nor live as men till they live to the glory of God. As reason is the substratum or subject of religion (so that creatures which have no reason are not capable of religion), so religion is the crown and glory of reason, and we have our reason in vain, and shall one day wish we had never had it, if we do not glorify God with it. ~ Matthew Henry
The Glory Of God quotes by Matthew Henry
For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them. MATTHEW 18:20 OCTOBER 14 Prayer can change your life. I strongly recommend that you learn the art or science of prayer and put it to work in your life. Now this may seem to you to be just one more religious idea, without much life or sparkle to it. But that is where you would be wrong. It is the way to life itself. When I say this of prayer I do not speak of the mere mumbling of words. I do not mean formal affirmations either, although formal prayers sometimes help and some formal prayers are touched with the glory of God. What I mean is a deep, fundamental, powerful relationship of the individual to God, whereby his whole mind and heart become changed and he receives power from God within himself. I have seen such prayer change the lives of many. God's peace deeply imbedded in your mind can often have a more tranquilizing and healing effect upon nerves and tension than medicine. God's peace is itself medicinal. ~ Norman Vincent Peale
The Glory Of God quotes by Norman Vincent Peale
God, my God, omnipotent King, I humbly adore thee. Thou art King of kings, Lord of lords. Thou art the Judge of every age. Thou art the Redeemer of souls. Thou art the Liberator of those who believe. Thou art the Hope of those who toil. Thou art the Comforter of those in sorrow. Thou art the Way to those who wander. Thou art Master to the nations. Thou art the Creator of all creatures. Thou art the Lover of all good. Thou art the Prince of all virtues. Thou art the joy of all Thy saints. Thou art life perpetual. Thou art joy in truth. Thou art the exultation in the eternal fatherland. Thou art the Light of light. Thou art the Fountain of holiness. Thou art the glory of God the Father in the height. Thou art Savior of the world. Thou art the plenitude of the Holy Spirit. Thou sittest at the right hand of God the Father on the throne, reigning for ever. ~ St Patrick
