The true and Divine purpose of our existence on Earth as humans, created in the image and likeness of Elohim, is simply to honor the LORD our Creator with every bit of our being and might, having been satisfied with the hope of glory to be shared with Christ for eternity in Heaven, without any intention of seeking earthly acclaim or gains (Deut. 6:23, Prov. 3:7-9, John 5:41). Still, by giving glory to the Son and Word of God, Jesus Christ, the Father is likewise honored because they are one (John 1:1-3 & 14, 10:30).
Moreover, exalting the Name of the LORD Most High and not ourselves while worshipping Him in Truth and in the Spirit, elevates the Righteousness of God, Jesus Christ who revered the One who sent Him, making His vessels of honor to be upheld as the Father decides to glorify the Son of Man before the World, as well as those he's been given (John 3:35, 7:18 & 18:9). Praising God takes away every form of pride and selfishness from our thoughts and tongue so that we may not fall; rather, the LORD keeps His Faithful Children uplifted (Prov. 16:18-19, Matt. 23:12, Phil. 2:5-8)
PRAYER: In Jesus' name, thank You, LORD; I ascribe to You all the power, glory, greatness, victory and majesty, for only my God deserves all the praise both in Heaven and on Earth; the Kingdom belongs to You, blessed be Your Holy Name (1 Chron. 29:11)!
Please, continue to keep me close as I humble myself to honor You always, in the Spirit as Your beloved Child,
Amen.
From John 8:49-50
