Work to the Glory of God

Listen Later

I deeply believe that I have been called to do the work I do. And that through the work I do, I have the amazing opportunity to glorify God.

Recently, I was able to preach a sermon entitled “Work to the Glory of God”. After listening back, I thought that this would be great to share with you. Whether you believe in God or not, I am confident you will find encouragement in what you are doing and maybe even clarity in things you desire to pursue.

Here are a few notes:

  1. The way God works
    • God works to create – Gen 1
    • God works to care by providing for his creation – Gen 2
    • God works to cultivate – Gen 2:15 (work it and keep it)
    • This means:
      • Work is God-given (this is part of why we were created).
      • Work is good
      • The Gospel lens at work
        • Honor God first, earn a wage second (1 Cor 6:19-20)
        • Serve others, even at your own expense (Matt 20:25-28)
        • Work as unto the Lord (Col 3:23)
        • The way we work
          • As employees:
            • Work with respect and fear (Eph 6:5a)
            • Work with sincerity of heart (Eph 6:5b)
            • Work hard always (Eph 6:6)
            • Work with a good will (Eph 6:7)
            • As employers:
              • You are no better or different (titles at work distort worth and value)
              • Fear should not be used to motivate (God-honoring character motivates)
              • Treat everyone the same.
