In summary: the Lord acknowledges the work that we do for His glory: Hebrews 6:9-10. As we purpose to operate in His will, let us focus more on being in relationship with Him. He is a relational God and desires a close walk with us. If we surrender to Him and allow the Holy Spirit to change our mindset, we shall experience a closer walk with Him: Romans 12:1-2. He will then, if He so desires, work in and through us to bring glory to His name. But we must purpose to be humble and remain so, because this may take gigantic proportions: Romans 12:3. He will use the gifts in each of us to bless the body of Christ and the world at large. The combined effect of our service will showcase His glory: Romans 12:4-8. That is why He is an awesome God!

And as we purpose to do that which He has created us to do due to His love for us, may it dawn on us that there is a method to it. We cannot achieve that in our own understanding. Our minds need to be transformed by His Spirit so that we understand what to do. Romans 12:1-2.
