John 17:1 The High Priestly Prayer

“Jesus spoke these things; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, “Father, the hour has come; glorify Your Son, that the Son may glorify You,”

1 Peter 4:1-2 “Therefore, since Christ has

suffered in the flesh, arm yourselves also

with the same purpose, because he who has

suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin,

so as to live the rest of the time in the flesh

no longer for the lusts of men, but for the

will of God.”

Isaiah 48:6-10 “Remember the former things

long past, for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like Me, declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things which have

not been done, saying, ‘My purpose will be

established, and I will accomplish all My

good pleasure’

For what reason were we created?

What was God’s purpose in our design? Why do we exist?

We were created for His glory.

We exist by His good pleasure to exhibit

all the glories of His supreme excellence.
