How does God give grace and glory?

God's bestowal of grace and glory is rooted in His covenant promises and flows from His divine character. As stated in Psalm 84:11, 'For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor.' This grace enables believers to trust and walk uprightly, for it is ultimately God who works in them to will and to act according to His purposes (Philippians 2:13). By recognizing that our ability to please God is a result of His grace, we understand the depth of His generosity toward those who are His.
