God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)
To give God glory is not to add something that is not already present; it is rather an act of acknowledgement or extolling of what He is or has already done (P.T. O’Brien).
Holiness is…the habit of agreeing in God’s judgment - hating what He hates - loving what He loves - and measuring everything in this world by the standard of His Word. He who most entirely agrees with God, he is the most holy man.
