God’s Glory in His Work and Rest
Ephesians 1:3-14 & Genesis 1:1, 1:31-2:3
God’s glory is the shining forth of His inward characteristics and His very being. What we perceive of God, we call glory. Our practical application today is merely to delight in God’s incredible glory that was revealed when He created all things. Today’s message also lays the foundation for next week (Labor Day weekend) when we will explore God’s Glory in Our Work and Rest.
God Created
Demonstrating His unlimited power
Exhibiting His varied beauty
Arising from His sufficient fullness
It Was Very Good
Choosing us before He laid the foundation of the world
Redeeming us through the blood of His Son
Sealing us with His promised Holy Spirit
God Rested
Completing His plan for the fullness of time
Showing He has no needs
Displaying the perfect peace He calls us to experience
