Created for His pleasure

Revelation 4:11 [KJV]

“Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.”

What is the purpose of life? Paul writes that we will all be held accountable for what we are doing with our lives (se 2 Cor. 5:10), you know why? Because life is a sacred trust. Your life, work, relationships, possession and everything God has blessed you with is sacred and you are to use them to bring God pleasure, because you and I were created for His pleasure. When all you are and all you have are directed towards giving God pleasure then you are fulfilling your purpose.

Dear friend, the question is; is your life giving God pleasure? Think about it. I believe that deep down, there is a longing, an intense desire to please God. God created you with that desire which can never be satisfied by anything else except Him. But all too often we turn to other things for satisfaction then stumble and fall.

You see, nothing will ever satisfy you except God, and you can only find your sense of worth and fulfil your life purpose in Him alone. So, how can you bring Him pleasure? Here are my suggestions: Love Him. Seek Him. Live your life for Him. Throw off the chains of guilt and discouragement. Bask in His grace, love and glory. And as my friend would say, take it one day at a time.

Prayer: Dear Lord, may my life bring you pleasure today, amen.
