Unlocking Greatness with Ryan James Miller Work to the Glory of God
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:
- 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.
- As employees:
