How to Glorify God in Your Daily Work
In a world that separates the sacred from the secular, Scripture tells us that all of life — including our work — belongs to God. As Christians grounded in Reformed theology, we believe in the sovereignty of God over every sphere of life, including the workplace. Here’s how you can glorify Him daily in your vocation.

1. Work with Excellence
“Whatever you do, work heartily, as for the Lord and not for men.” (Colossians 3:23)
Whether you’re a student, office worker, freelancer, or homemaker, you are serving Christ in your work. Strive for excellence as an act of worship.
2. Cultivate Integrity
Glorifying God means avoiding shortcuts and dishonest practices. Be known for honesty, reliability, and faithfulness — virtues that reflect God's own character.
3. Reflect Christ in Conduct
Your workplace is a mission field. Let your actions, tone, and speech testify to the hope that is in you. Be gracious, patient, and humble in all your dealings.
4. Acknowledge God’s Providence
Recognize that your job is not just a means to an end, but a calling under God’s providence. He placed you there with purpose.
5. Practice Stewardship
Be a faithful steward of time, energy, and resources. Don't waste what God has entrusted to you. Productivity and rest are both part of honoring Him.
“There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, ‘Mine!’”
– Abraham Kuyper
Verse Reflection
1 Corinthians 10:31 — “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.”
Reformed theology reminds us that our mundane routines have eternal significance when done unto the Lord.
