1Co 10:31
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of
God.
Whatsoever we do-
meaning EVERY SINGLE THING WE DO. Going
to church once a week, praying religiously in the morning and evening, studying
your Bible every single day these are all wonderful things, but NOT a single one
of them matters if we aren't living to God's glory in ALL we do. If we can set
God aside as if He were one of our garments we put on and take off as we
please, then we are not giving God glory in all we do. If we say we have a God
time, a special time with God- that's a good thing right? It is, but NOT if
that's the only place we have God. When that hour, or half-hour is up and we
end our special God time and get on with our lives we have to take God with us,
not leave Him in that time we set aside.
Today a lot of couples will make- date nights. It's not that they aren't together every
other night, but they set aside a special time to get closer, to renew their
union. We have to have God all the time, ALL the time, in ALL we do or else we
are not doing all to the glory of GOD.
When we are eating…
we can either eat to God's glory, or not eat to God's glory.
When we are
drinking… we can either drink to God's glory, or not drink to God's glory.
How do we NOT eat
and drink to God's glory?
Deu_21:20 And
they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is stubborn and

a man with rags.

that loveth pleasure shall be a poor man: he that loveth wine and oil shall not
be rich.
Isa 28:1 Woe
to the crown of pride, to the drunkards of Ephraim, whose glorious beauty is a
fading flower, which are on the head of the fat valleys of them that are
overcome with wine!
1Co 5:11 But
now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a
brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater, or a railer, or a
drunkard, or an extortioner; with such an one no not to eat.

thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall
inherit the kingdom of God.

Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell
you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such
things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Php 3:18 (For
many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that
they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:

end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their
shame, who mind earthly things.)
Php 2:21 For
all seek their own, not the things which are Jesus Christ's.

Wherefore kick ye at my sacrifice and at mine offering, which I have commanded
in my habitation; and honourest thy sons above me, to make yourselves fat with
the chiefest of all the offerings of Israel my people?
Eze 13:19 And
will ye pollute me among my people for handfuls of barley and for pieces of
bread, to slay the souls that should not die, and to save the souls alive that
should not live, by your lying to my people that hear your lies?
Luk 12:19 And
I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take
thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
Luk 12:20 But
God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee:
then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
Rom 16:18 For
they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by
good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple.
2Ti 3:4
Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;
2Ti 3:5 Having
a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
2Pe 2:13 And
shall receive the reward of unrighteousness, as they that count it pleasure to
riot in the day time. Spots they are and blemishes, sporting themselves with
their own deceivings while they feast with you
Eze 16:49
Behold, this was the iniquity of thy sister Sodom, pride, fulness of bread, and
abundance of idleness was in her and in her daughters, neither did she
strengthen the hand of the poor and needy.
Pro 23:1 When
thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what is before
thee:
Pro 23:2 And
put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite.
Pro 23:3 Be
not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat.
Rom 13:14 But
put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to
fulfil the lusts thereof.
Rom 14:17 For
the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy
in the Holy Ghost.
More about this
tomorrow by the GRACE and MERCY of our LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST now and
forever!
