did you turn your Bibles with me to
Exodus 33 verses 17 to 23 Exodus 33
verses 17 to 23 please stand as I read
the Word of God the Lord said to Moses
we’ll also do this thing which you have
spoken for you have found favor in my
sight and I have known you by name then
Moses said I pray you show me your glory
he said I myself will make all my
goodness pass before you and will
proclaim the name of the Lord before you
and I will be gracious to whom I will be
gracious and will show compassion on
whom I will show compassion but he said
you cannot see my face for no man can
see my see me and live then the Lord
said Behold there is a place by me and
you shall stand there on the rock and it
will come about while my glory is
passing by that I will put you in the
cleft of the rock and cover you with my
hand until I have passed by then I will
take my hand away and you will see my
back but my face shall not be seen
father open up our eyes to see glorious
things through your word in Jesus name
Amen
if I said to you the names Michael
Jordan or Kareem abdul-jabbar or LeBron
James you would think of greatness when
it comes to basketball if I said Mickey
Mantle or Reggie Jackson you would think
about greatness as it relates to
baseball if I said Serena Williams
perhaps you would think of greatness
on the tennis court or if I said Jim
Brown or Roger Staubach or Tom Brady you
would think of greatness on the gridiron
because those are names of people who
have excelled in their fields and have
become noted for their awesome
achievements we celebrate people who
have climbed the ladder of what the
society would call success and we pay
homage to them we ask for their
autographs we they capture our attention
when they are on the screen or on TV or
there’s some newsworthy item written
about them because they have
demonstrated in their particular craft
that they are worth extra attention the
process of exalting a person for their
achievement is to give them glory that
is to give them honor and value based on
who they are and what they have done
over and over and over and
over and over in Scripture we are called
upon to glorify the glorious God because
unlike the heroes that you know
celebrate and recognize he is one of a
kind if there was a Hall of Fame for God
he would be the only one in it for he
isn’t a class by himself the word glory
means weight or heavy that’s what the
word means
weight or heavy when I was growing up
and those who are in my season of life
will remember that when we saw people
who excelled we would quickly say that
dude is heavy if they were really
brilliant they could use words nobody
else knew he’s heavy
when they could do things other people
that dude is heavy he’s waiting he’s got
a lot of he’s got a lot of juice on him
or on her now that word it’s not used
quite that much these days I guess the
more contemporary word is awesome
awesome something is awesome or are
inspiring and therefore awesome the
Bible says over and over again that
God’s nickname description you know a
nickname was often a description you
call somebody slim cuz they were skinny
call somebody red cuz they you know have
red hair would call somebody fats cuz
they were heavy well if you want to give
God a nickname just call him glory cuz
over and over and over again that is the
scripted identification of God glory
Psalm 29 3 says he is the god of glory
Psalm 8:1 says his glory is above the
heaven it is a summary concept of the
visible manifestation of the attributes
of God when you say glory in
relationship to God you are referring to
the awesomeness of his being and since
every aspect of his being is perfect
everything about him is therefore
awesome and therefore glorious so he is
glorious in everything she when you
glorify a person you probably can only
glorify them in one or two areas because
they’re not like glorious in everything
you have some athletes who play one
sport and then try to play another sport
and find out they not as glorious over
here as they were over there
glory tends to vacillate up and down
depending on what they’re doing but with
God he’s 100 every time because all of
his attributes which are the
manifestation of his being are in fact
glory us so if you will recall him some
the Bible just said call him glory cuz
this dude is heavy
he is awe-inspiring awesome weighty in a
very unique way
why is God’s glory unique God’s glory is
unique because it is intrinsic we said
it again God’s glory is unique because
it is intrinsic that is it is self
defined
self-initiated and it is self expressed
I mean said another way you don’t have
to give God glory for him to be glorious
he does not have to develop into glory
see anybody else you know who has been
honored for something had to arrive
there from another place if if they’re
glorious in their knowledge because
they’re brilliant they didn’t start
there they started in kindergarten and
they didn’t learn the ABCs and they
learned math equations and over time
they became smart when you find an
awesome basketball player they didn’t
just walk out on the court they practice
over a series of five years and got good
at their craft when you see an actor
they started out doing plays they
started out here they got good at their
craft and they developed into this
honorable position not so with God he
started off that way and how he started
had no room for improvement and I can’t
use the word started because he never
started because he is glorious from the
time of his existence which has been
forever don’t think about that too long
you’re gonna jump out a window yeah
but there’s never a time God has not
been because that’s another dimension
you and I are living in time and so we
can’t appreciate that but God’s glory is
intrinsic he does not have to go outside
of himself to help himself
be glorious anything you’re good at you
need something outside of you to help
you to be good at it
God is so glorious that he does not have
to go outside
himself to make himself better and what
himself is that it sound right but you
follow me and him sound right to me
God’s weightiness his glory its
intrinsic to his being let me put it
this way what what is to water what blue
is to sky and what heat is to fire
glorious to God water doesn’t have to
find wet sky doesn’t have to locate some
blue and Fire doesn’t have to get a
match to be hot it is intrinsic to the
nature of what those elements are in
other words you can’t talk about fire
and not talk about hot
you can’t talk about sky and not talk
about blue
you can’t talk about water and not talk
about wet because they are intrinsically
inter connected so you can’t bring up
the name God and not talk about glory
because it is part and parcel of his
nature and of his perfections and every
aspect of his being all of the glory
that men seek men pursue is only
ascribed glory it’s not intrinsic you
know that because it doesn’t last the
fast runner will slow down over time the
good-looking beauty queen is gone
wrinkled and maybe even get ugly over
time
the actual actress won’t get the young
parts over time and the big proof that
glory fades is that you’re going down
and that’s why God hates pride cuz God
says you ain’t all that and a bag of
chips God is the only being in existence
not dependent upon something outside of
himself to be himself for he generates
himself by himself within himself God’s
glory is the sum total of his attributes
perfectly intrinsically within him and
that’s why he says in isaiah 40:8 11 he
will not share his glory with another
because there’s nobody to be compared
with him which is why he’s insulted when
his glory is challenged either by
picking up an idol or thinking you are
the idol and today we have American
Idols God is glorious stay with me here
and since its glory is intrinsic
he is non dependent therefore
independent unlike us you take away to
err we leave we lose our glory you take
away the food we lose our glory take
away to health we lose our glory God
doesn’t lose any glory because he
doesn’t need anything outside of himself
to be himself not true of us but what
God has done is he has sought to
manifest his glory through the
demonstration of his attributes in other
words he wants to show how great he
really is therefore so his glory can be
seen so it’s the visible manifestation
of the glorious attributes of God called
glory saw 19 verses 1 to 6 the heavens
and earth declare the glory of God
he says all you have to do to see how
good god is is wake up look outside and
you will see how heavy this dude is you
will discover how awesome God is by just
looking up cuz the heavens and then look
around and the earth are screaming God
I mean there just declare it are you bad
cuz who else you know who do that you’ll
know about in this talk and world’s come
into existence so they scream the glory
but you know we do we get hooked on the
creation more than the Creator we give
glory to what the Creator made instead
of the Creator who made it which is
idolatry by the way he says the heavens
declare the glory of God if God would
let you see him if you could see God at
the Etta’s nucleus at the centerpiece of
his being the Bible actually tells you
what you would see
because first Timothy chapter 6 verse 16
if you could do this first Timothy 6 16
says this referring to God it says who
alone possesses immortality and here it
is dwell in unapproachable light who no
man is
or Kenzi to him be honor and eternal
Dominion amen so if you want to know
where God lives and what God’s makeup is
he calls it unapproachable light so when
Psalm 19 says the heavens and earth
declare the glory of God he comes down
and gives you an illustration and he
says the illustration to help you out to
understand God he says is the Sun he
says the Sun the Sun is God’s
illustration to you and me of
unapproachable light the Bible over and
over again describes God in terms of
light first John 1:5 God is light he is
right he doesn’t just create light
that’s that’s his his realm of existence
right so he created the Sun so psalm 119
says the sun so let’s talk about the sun
the sun is self-generating heated plasma
the Sun is located 93 million miles from
Earth if you were to take an airplane to
the Sun flying at 600 miles an hour you
took American Delta to the Sun if you
could do that
it would take you
17 years flying 600 miles an hour
covering 93 million miles it would take
you 17 years to get to the sir if you
drove
it would take you 200 years to drive a
car from Planet Earth to the Sun so this
Sun is so big and so powerful that it
heats the whole earth 93 million miles
now if you tried to get there
million miles before you arrived
you’d be burnt to a crisp cuz it’s
unapproachable light you can’t get you
can’t get close to it you can be close
enough 93 million miles away to benefit
from it and the closer you get to it the
heart of things become 180 sides earth
can fit in the Sun you just put its
earth sides in the Sun because it’s
eighty three thousand miles around and
God in evidence saying I made that I
mean I just want to show you how heavy
how awesome I am I made that so every
time you get up and it’s not dark God
says that’s glory on display
that’s God advertising God the glory is
the advertisement of God through his
attributes in fact he is so full of
light that the Bible says in Revelation
chapter 21 verse 23 that in the New
Jerusalem in eternity he is going to
dismiss the Sun and tell the Sun I don’t
need you anymore
because his glory it says will provide
light for the heavenly City that’s why
there will be no night there because his
glory will control it and in fact in
order for you to hang out there he’s
gonna have to give you a new body cuz
this body would burn up in his presence
and so every believer gets a new
glorified body so you can handle the
heat and handle the light of his
supernatural presence when we talk about
in theology the Shekinah glory we’re
talking about the glory of God now
dwelling in the midst of men so god
Shekinah his dwelling glory came down to
the tabernacle and dwelt in it it then
came down in the temple and dwelt in it
when God wanted to manifest his
awesomeness his glory to mankind in
terms men could understand he became a
man in the person of Jesus Christ the
second member of the triune Godhead John
1 says in the beginning was the word the
Word was with God and the Word was God
verse 14 says and the word became flesh
verse 18 says and
beheld his glory the glory as of the
only begotten Son of God who who who has
revealed God to us Jesus Christ is the
revelation of the glory of God in human
form so if you wanted to see what God
looks like in a body Jesus Christ the
god man was the manifestation of the
glory of God that’s why in Matthew 17
when he went on the Mount of
Transfiguration and he had Peter James
and John come around he brought God
brought Moses up to represent the law
he brought Elijah up to represent the
prophets that is the Old Testament the
Bible says and the glory of God burst
through Jesus Christ so that they had to
hide their face from the light because
he’s zipped down his humanity and
exposed his deity so when you read about
Jesus Christ you’re not just reading
about a good man and a nice profit
you’re looking at the glory of God in
human form in fact I want you to turn
here 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 it’s a
powerful statement for a very practical
reason in 2nd Corinthians chapter 4 this
is what we read verse 4 says in whose
case the god of this world has blinded
the minds of the unbelieving so that
they might not see the light of the
gospel of the glory of Christ who is the
image of God he says in verse 6 for God
has who say it is God who said light
shall shine out of Darkness is the one
who has shone in our hearts to give the
light of the knowledge of the glory of
God in the face of Christ so the glory
of God comes in the face of Christ so
the more you know Christ the more glory
you experience because the glory of God
is in the face of Christ but why does
that matter verse 7 for we have this
treasure in earthen vessels so that the
surpassing greatness of power will be of
God and not about
sells now watch this we are afflicted in
every way but not crushed perplexed but
not despairing persecuted but not
forsaken struck down but not destroyed
you know what he said he said oh yeah
life has its problems but you got the
glory inside and when the glory inside
is operating with the power of God
what’s happening on the outside no
longer defines you cuz you got more
glory on the inside than was coming at
you from the outside so this is not just
some theoretical concept it is God’s
glory being manifested in Christ and
Christ glory that blows to God being
manifested in us as his power is
expressed through his glory now here’s a
part that’s gonna cause problem isaiah
43:7 says we were created for his glory
that’s a problem that’s problem because
most people don’t define that’s why
they’re here let’s get this straight
God put mankind here in His image and
images of mirror to reflect back to him
his glory he created man in his likeness
and his image cuz God wanted to look at
himself in a mirror in miniature form
earthbound creatures so he put you and
me here to bounce back himself to
himself you were created for God’s glory
which means any man woman boy or girl
who is not living for the glory of God
don’t know why they’re here
and so what men have done is come up
with secular so Sennett definition
of purpose because they haven’t started
at the place of water even him you are
here I am here to bounce back God’s
glory that’s why Paul defines sin as an
interruption in the glory of God Romans
3:23 all have sinned and come short of
the glory of God
cuz sin two tracks from glory so you and
I have been created
watch as divine advertisements because
glory means to put on display you and I
are God’s ad agency we ought to be
advertisements of the deity because
that’s why he made you this is why 1st
Corinthians 10:31 says whether you eat
or drink or whatever you do do all to
the glory of God let’s talk about
whether you eat or drink do all to the
glory of God now eating and drinking is
one of the most regular mundane things
we do ok we’ve we do it all day you know
we drink a coke we drink some coffee we
drink some tea we eat breakfast lunch
dinner and dessert and stuff in between
I mean it’s kind of something you even
think about you just come to do it you
do it all of time he says I put you here
to glorify me so much that you are to
drink a glass of water independent of
your recognition of me but that would
make sense since you don’t get water
independent of him in fact you can’t
think of anything you have that you
didn’t have to borrow from him
but you say wait a minute wait a minute
come on that’s too much that’s too much
God wasn’t all his glory the glory God
got issues
God you insecure okay
let’s flip the script let’s say God’s
glory was only available to you and me
intermittently okay he gave us air every
now and then he let it rain when he was
in a rain mood you know earth rotating
on his axes he decided y’all have to if
you don’t like to spend the day see God
the reason why God goes underappreciated
is he’s too consistent see he’s really
consistent I mean this air every day for
huh for thousands and thousands of years
in it the sun is shining every day and
the earth doesn’t spend to fast that
we’re thrown off and become dizzy or too
slow that we’re not able to function god
you’re just so consistent you’re raining
so we can have crops and you got animals
so we can get food you just so consist
of God took a break it’s over it’s a
wrap
but because his his mercies are new
every day and he’s so consistent we get
used to it we get used to it god you’re
supposed to do that supposed to do that
see you and I were put here for his
glory
period now there’s benefits that come to
us because of that but that is not the
purpose the purpose is for his
advertising for his glory Moses said
show me your glory Moses said show me
your glory that’s interesting
wait a minute you had already seen his
glory I mean the burning bush the bush
is on fire but it stays green so he
wants to know what it’s Bush isn’t
burning up he walks over to the bush he
hears a voice come out the bush Moses
take off his shoes this is holy ground
God is in the bush you saw his glory way
men Moses you saw what he did to Pharaoh
with the template 12 plagues the
templates you saw what he did with the
plagues did you see his glory then and
surely Moe you saw his glory at the Red
Sea come on now he opened up the Red Sea
the children Israel went across on dry
land and not only did he open up the
seeds dried up the land so that nothing
got stuck I mean come on
Moses you’ve seen his glory haven’t you
so you gotta understand what Moses is
saying
oh yeah I saw him at the burning bush I
saw with Pharaoh I saw him at the Red
Sea so there’s so much to him I won’t
see some all I want to see some more of
his glory show me your good I want to go
deeper I want to go further you see the
reason why we don’t want to see more is
we haven’t seen enough in the past or we
forgot what we saw because we you’ve
seen him and he has more available let
me put it this way God will only show
you as much of his glory as you want to
see he only feeds hungry people and
because so many people are not
interested in his glory he obliges them
and they don’t see more of it Moses said
I want more show me your glory and we
know what he was asking for because of
God’s response God says you can’t see my
face see Moses Moses was going for my
brothers was going for the big Muhajir I
won’t see your face I said I saw that
God says okay I can’t show you my face
because they kill you if I show you my
face if I let you see me me like this
you will evaporate so I can’t show you
my face because it’ll kill you but what
I’ll let you see is my back now that’s
called anthropomorphic language somebody
say anthropomorphic that is using human
language to explain a spiritual reality
so he says I can’t show you my face
human language but I’ll let you see my
barb my back or my hinder parts so
here’s what I’m gonna do moe
I’m gonna put you in the cleft of
rakh then i’ma cover your face with my
hand and my Gloria’s gonna pass by with
my glory passes by then I’m gonna remove
my hand and you’re gonna see my back
cuz that’s all you’re gonna be able to
handle it in the back here it is it’s
like when you look up in the sky and a
plane is passed by but you don’t see the
plane you just see the exhaust so you
know a plane was there not because you
see it but you see what it left behind
so God is saying I can’t let you see my
face I’ll let you see my exhaust okay so
Moses is in the cleft of the rock God’s
glory past face passes by but he hides
Moses from seeing it so he doesn’t die
then he removes his hand and the bad
part of God he sees when he saw the back
part of God that is God’s history he
picked up a pen and piece of paper and
wrote in the beginning God created the
heavens and the earth and the earth was
our form the void and darkness was upon
the face of the deep and God said let
there be light and there was light and
God made man in his own image
he talked about the discussion in heaven
let us make man and let us make man let
them be fruitful and multiply and let
them rule over the earth and the
fountain and he just write me write me
right cuz God let him see his history
because when God shows up in his glory
you see things you’ve never seen before
he said show me your glory I want to see
you on display I’m hungry
for your glory confession confession the
other day I went by the donut shop
confession
got me a twister cinnamon roll the
glazed round one and then when I got him
she took them you know a little small
whatever they call him round ones and
put a bunch of them in the bag
doughnut holes yeah I took him to the
microwave
[Music]
I took him to the microwave push 30
seconds in 30 seconds came out then
things were hot sugar running ran to my
console no member saumui donuts was just
melting in my mouth the problem occurred
when it was time for dinner
cuz he I had feasted on junk so when the
healthy stuff was ready I wasn’t hungry
see what the society offers you a donuts
but their donuts soaked in sugar so it
feels so sweet and so delightful to the
taste that we eat what society has to
offer so that when God comes with the
real thing we don’t have an appetite
anymore but Moses said I’m hungry to see
your glory I’m hungry to see what makes
you tick I’m hungry for you to manifest
yourself to me you know what God gave
Moses a special favour you know what he
did he hit Moses his body Moses died and
he hit Bob says he hit Moses his body so
nobody knew what Moses body was buried
that’s because in Matthew 17 God goes
back get Moses his body wakes it up
brings him so he can see
Jesus unveiled in his glory on the Mount
of Transfiguration cuz remember only get
men see God’s face so he let Moses die
so he could bring him back you wanted to
see me now you’re dead now you can see
your eternity in heaven if you’re a
believer in Jesus Christ means that God
is going to expose his glory and it will
take you forever to understand it so
what do we do what do we do with this
Psalm 29 verses 1 & 2 says then you
ascribe to the Lord the glory due his
name not because he needs it but because
he enjoys it he enjoys his creation
recognizing who he is don’t you don’t
you enjoy your employee-employer
recognizing your work when you’ve done a
good job does it make you feel good that
they are recognizing the job you did
isn’t a player excited who does a
touchdown and the people are applauding
him for the great runner Pass or catch
that they made it is natural to enjoy
the glory do your name what happens if
you are unlimitedly glorious then
worship should not be a tedious task you
just given him the glory due his name
see many people have this worship thing
mixed up you know first come here to
preacher you don’t first come here to
choir you come for an audience of one
god I’m gonna sing so you hear my voice
praise you and I’m gonna listen so I can
hear what you have to say to me because
it’s about you when Jesus was born glory
to God in the highest then you get peace
on earth among men you ascribe to the
Lord the glory due his name Psalm 96 has
the same thing in verse three and verse
seven and eight you give him the glory
giving the credit
the recognition story of the ten lepers
they were all crying for God to healing
1000 heal us heal us heal us have mercy
on us Jesus comes along and he says go
show yourself to the priest the only way
showing himself to the briefing that
they walking to the priest the leprosy
dissipates and disappears so the only
way to propel excited now I’ve been
blessed you know we like that God bless
me I’ve been blessed new car new house
new job then it says one of the ten
stopped and turned around and went back
and fell on his face giving God glory
jesus said but I thought there were ten
how come only this one turns around
because the other nine was so busy
enjoying their blessing that they didn’t
take time to give God glory you hear
this all today people having all excuses
not to glorify God while asking him to
bless them God deserves glory he
requires glory but far too many of us
even Christians one appetizers not a
full meal there are two ways to make
something bigger you can magnify it
now you didn’t make it bigger you just
made it look bigger it’s thin so same
size but the magnifying glass made it
look bigger or you can get closer to it
because the closer you get to an object
the bigger it becomes the further you
get the smaller it becomes it’s really
the same size oh you you’ve changed your
location so we shouldn’t be surprised
that the psalmist says o magnify the
Lord with me and let us exalt his name
together
you came making bigger all but you can
look at him in a bigger way or you can
get closer to him so you see how big he
is and so ascribe to the Lord the glory
due his name we’re to be like the moon
the moon reflects the light of the Sun
we’re to reflect the glory of God people
running to you they should run into the
glory of God let me tell you something
else before we close about the guy you
know the glory of God it grows on you
it’s like starting off with a picture
you know picture you take on your phone
you started with a picture that’s still
that’s still so still photograph okay
there’s no movement there but it may
look nice it’s in college look nice but
then you see the television screen well
that’s picture in motion oh but then you
go and you see the movie in IMAX
well now you dealing with a whole
different grabbing look and then you get
3d it’s coming off the screen coming at
you
and now they got movies where the seats
move
to reflect the activity on the screen
you know all they’re trying to do is get
you closer to the experience some
Christians are satisfied with a
photograph they just want a photograph
of God and God that’s cool that’s pretty
others aren’t satisfied with a program
they need a TV screen they want to see a
little bit more then that those who want
some HD then it owes who want to say oh
no no no no no I want IMAX I want I want
God you to show me more than those
others that what I got to say I want to
see the effect of that leaping off that
screen coming right at me so did this
shakes up my seat so that I am infected
and affected by the movement of God one
thing you need to know God will get
glory out of you whether you want it or
not
so that’s the understanding because he
created the world for his glory he gonna
get his glory Romans chapter 1 says
because they did not glorify Him as God
verses 21 to 23 because they did not
glorify him as God’s judgment fell
because men were created for his glory
Jeremiah chapter 13 verses 15 to 16
because they did not glorify him
judgment fell Romans from revelation 14
verses 6 and 7 because they did not
glorify Him as God judgment fell the
great illustration of this is Pharaoh
Pharaoh asked Moses who is this God that
I should recognize him I don’t recognize
him I recognize me God says I heard that
god says in Exodus chapter 14 verse 17
since he gonna be a fool i’ma help him
so it says I God hardened Pharaoh’s
heart so he made him a bigger sinner
than he was already demonstrating
himself to be he let him get worse made
his heart harder so that he ran after
the children of Israel after he let them
go
God made it run after him cuz God says
because you don’t want to recognize my
glory I’m gonna help you out I’m gonna
make you more evil than you started you
go get my people he goes after God’s
people and he watches his whole army
gets swallowed up in the Red Sea cuz God
says in Exodus 14 17 I’m gonna make him
glorify me so you can glorify Him
voluntarily or mandatorily but there is
no issue and by the way there are no
atheists in hell
everybody will recognize the glory of
God my kids were small we took him to
the amusement park love amusement and
back then they had I don’t know what
they called him I just called him
thingamajigs they they’re these little
little stretched things with light on
them and you could wrap them around your
wrist wrapping around you anybody
remember those those those the light
strips little stick okay whatever
and so so they have so they had these
things the lights were on him and say
hey wrap them around the arms wrapped
around a head wrap around their neck and
it’s getting dark outside but you could
always see them cuz they were lit up and
so you you they would stay lit but when
we got in the car on our way home the
light began to dim the light begin to
fade one time we got home it was a
little light left
because it been alone for a while and
then we leaving and all that so what we
would do is we would put him under a
lamp while the kids were asleep when
they woke up the light had reappeared
because it was made to absorb light in
order to reflect light this world makes
the light of God fade your people your
family yet people at work the
circumstances our own nature and the
light of God’s glory fades but second
Corinthians chapter 3 verses 17 and 18
says that when God’s Word by God’s
Spirit is working in our life we are
transformed from glory to glory that if
we stay under the light the glory keeps
coming and keeps expanding so the
presence and power of God is being
realized in our lives so I would invite
you to do what psalm 115 says psalm 115
says that you and i are to give god
glory in fact i’m a close by reading it
some 115 because it says it all here’s
what we read
it says not to us Oh Lord not to us
verse 1 but to your name give glory and
then in Psalm 113 verse 3 from the
rising of the Sun till it’s setting may
the name of the Lord be praised the Lord
is high above all nations his glory is
above the heavens for the rising of the
Sun that’s when you get up tell but
going down with the same that’s when you
go to bed and all the time between take
every opportunity to bring him glory
sometimes you’re gonna do it while you
drive sometimes you’re gonna do it
formally while you’re praying sometimes
you’re gonna do it while you’re thinking
sometimes you’re gonna do it when you’re
interacting but you make the
advertisement of God and his attributes
your primary purpose in life and you’ll
stay lit up with his presence and with
his power so that when you come to
worship all you doing is doing what you
did all week long with everybody else at
one time let’s stand to our feet and
let’s give God some glory with the
closing song for he is worthy not only
of a preach sermon but of celebrating
his great name
