Our achievements are ultimately for God's glory
The term “glory” refers to the visible splendor or moral beauty of God ’s manifold perfections. The “glory” of God is the exhibition of his inherent excellence; it is the external manifestation of his internal majesty. To “glorify God” is to declare, draw attention to, or publicly announce and advertise his glory. Piper explains that: “another term which can signify much the same thing is ‘the name of God.’ When Scripture speaks of doing something ‘for God’s name’s sake’ it means virtually the same as doing it ‘for his glory.’ The ‘name’ of God is not merely his label, but a reference to his character. The term ‘glory’ simply makes more explicit that the character of God is indeed magnificent and excellent. This is implicit in the term ‘name’ when it refers to God” (Desiring God, 227). Again, there are numerous passages that support this assertion. 1. Rom. 11:36—“For from him and through him and to him are all things. To Him be the glory forever. Amen. ” Accordin
