It Was The Lord

It Was The Lord – The Lord has told us, in this life, we will have trouble. The question is, who helped us through our troubles, was it others, did we resolve it ourselves, or was it the Lord? Was it resolved through our knowledge and strength, or was it the Lord who delivered us through it?  We must give credit to where it is due, who should receive the glory for the resolution to our issues and troubles, should the glory go to us, or to the Lord?  As Christians we are blessed by God, but some of us take what is the Lord’s and we put our name on it, accepting credit for it, including recognition from others, never confessing it was the Lord. We cannot be foolish in our walk with the Lord, God wants us to give him all the glory, all the honor, and all the praise for what he has done, and is doing through us.  Christ Jesus deserves the glory, honor, and praise, he died for our sins, he wipes away our transgressions, we did not do it on our own, it was the Lord.  If we grow in faith, giving all glory, honor, and praise to God the Father and Christ Jesus. When the Lord returns, he will give us glory and honor, he will reward us for our faithful service. We would whether receive glory, honor, and praise from God then anyone in the world.
