It is odd that the things in the believer’s life that produces the most practical implications and influence are those things, which are directly connected with that purpose, for the displaying of God’s Glory.

       Those things are “hope, faith and love”. Therefore all teachers, pastors let the majority of what you preach be that of “showing who God is”. Show who God is in all His excellence. So that your people will know why they are to Sell everything and put their Hope, faith and love in this Glorious God. Show why God is so hopeful, show why God is so trustworthy, even above all things, and show God to be infinitely Majestic and Good, and therefore worthier above all to be loved and admired.  If this is all the preacher preached it would be enough, and everything else would fall in to place in the believer’s life.

       And God would be displayed as Glorious, as He should be and will be, this happens as He is “Hoped” in, “Trusted” in and “cherished” by His Saints far above all things in the universe. “Glory to God in the Highest. Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty; the whole earth is full of His Glory.”

'Faith, Hope, and Love, the three divine sisters; these have Salvation in their bowels and do carry it about with them in their loins. Faith, who lays hold on Christ, and trusts all in him; that ventures everything upon his blood and sacrifice, and hath no other trust. Hope, that with beaming eye looks up to Jesus Christ in glory, and expects him soon to come: looks downward, and when she sees grim Death in her way, expecting that she shall pass through with victory. And thou sweet Love, the sweetest of the three, she whose words are music and whose eyes are stars; Love, also looks to Christ and is enamored of him; loves him in all his offices, adores his presence, reverences his words, and is prepared to bind her body to the stake and die for him, who bound his body to the cross to die for her. Sweet Love, God hath well chosen to commit to thee the custody of the sacred work" (C.H. Spurgeon)
