When Moses asks to see God’s glory, God says, “I’ll cause all my goodness to pass before you.” Moses asks to see God’s glory and He shows Moses His goodness.

We want God’s glory to be revealed because Jesus said, “If I am lifted up, I will draw all people to myself.” We want Him lifted up because we want all people to come to a saving knowledge of Jesus. God desires all to be saved and so do we.

We want God’s glory on display because we want people to see Him. We want them to look to Him and be saved.

He displays His glory in nature in numerous ways, but He also shines His glory through showing His goodness to you! When you have a testimony of God’s goodness in your life, you are showing off His glory.

But there’s another way our good is for His glory. Jesus said to His disciples, “Let your light shine that men might see your GOOD works and glorify God.” We’re also told to do our good works in secret. We diligently serve God by loving others without fanfare, but when we are shining God’s light through our good works, the Father will set our lamp on the lampstand.

The lamp doesn’t put itself on the lampstand, its owner does. The lamp gives no light; it just holds it. The light in us is Christ and the Father wants to reveal His glory.
