As We head into the first few days of 2025, I thought it would be good to consider why God created the universe, the earth and mankind. Many people, including Christians, struggle to find fulfilment in life because they have bought into the idea that God created them so that they could be happy.
They think God's ultimate motivation behind everything He does is to ensure their happiness. This is a lie. Or rather it is a half-truth at best. God is certainly concerned with our wellbeing. But He is more concerned with our lasting joy than with temporary happiness.
This is what I hope to demonstrate in today's episode. Hopefully I can show that God's primary motivation behind everything He does is to make himself known. And that it is by us knowing, loving and honouring God that we experience true and lasting joy. As john Piper says:
"God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in him"
