Knowing you are already glorified in God’s eyes should move you to live for him and share your faith

TEXAS GOSPEL VOLUNTEER

God has already placed his stamp of glorification on every believer’s name, meaning that from his perspective the work is complete and finished, and that truth should be one of the greatest motivators in a Christian’s life. Rather than waiting for a sermon to push us toward serving God, the awareness of all he has already done and who he has already declared us to be ought to stir us to praise him through the way we actually live.

The people of God are described as glorified saints, already headed to heaven, and that identity carries a responsibility to bring others along. Sharing what we have in Christ is not just an obligation; it flows naturally from understanding the generosity of what God has given us. A life lived to his glory is the most practical and fitting response to a salvation that was entirely his doing from beginning to end.

Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God.

2 Corinthians 5:20
