Today we get a glimpse of what John saw gathered around the throne and the worship of the Lamb as we read in Revelation 4:12 what the angels and elders and others gathered there said, "Worthy is the Lamb who was slain To receive power and Riches and wisdom, And strength and honor and glory and blessing!"
Looking at the worship of the angels and others can help us understand our purpose for being here. It's the answer to the question of why are they worshiping Him? Why should we worship Him? First of all, because He have created all things, not that God have allowed all things to evolve. God created all things. And not only that, but it is for His pleasure they are and were created. Here is a statement of fact that is important for us to accept. I was created for God's pleasure. That means I was not created for my own pleasure.
Thus, I should not seek to please myself, because then I am not answering the purpose of my existence. I should seek to please God; then I am answering the purpose of my existence. But the interesting thing is when I live to please God I find great pleasure myself. Therein is happiness. Therein is satisfaction. Therein is fulfillment when I live to please God. to really find what living is all about, you have got to just live for His pleasure. Thus, you are answering the purpose of your existence and thus your life is fulfilling and rich.
Blessings to all
