"Not to us O LORD, not to us but to your name be the glory because of your love and faithfulness."
- Psalm 115:1
God's righteous passion and delight are to display and uphold his infinitely valuable glory for the enjoyment of the redeemed. Jonathan Edwards and John Piper, among others, have labored to point out that text upon text in the Bible describe for us God's relentless pursuit of His praise and honor from creation to consummation. A key text for this is found in Isaiah 48:9-11:
For my name's sake I defer my anger, for the sake of my praise I restrain it for you, that I may not cut you off. Behold I have refined you, but not like silver; I have tried you in the furnace of affliction. For my own sake, for my own sake, I do it, for how should my name be profaned? My glory I will not give to another.
God is radically God-centered, not man-centered, yet this redounds to the eternal benefit and blessing of His people. non nobis domine non nobis sed nomini tuo da gloriam He calls us, as Piper puts it, to join him in his God-centeredness. His infinite value and worth stand over everything else. "...for you have exalted above all things your name and your word." - Psalm 138:2. Nothing compares to or rivals Him. Apart from God nothing can satisfy the longings and desires of our hearts. Other verses of Scripture which display God's passion for the glory of His name are as follows:
"Bring my sons from afar and my daughters from the ends of the earth (says the Lord), everyone who is called by my name, whom I created for my glory." Is 43:6-7

"Thus says the Lord God, 'It is not for your sake, O house of Israel, that I am about to act, but for the sake of my holy name...And I will vindicate the holiness of my great name...and the nations will know that I am Lord. It is not for your sake that I will act,' says the Lord God. 'Let that be known to you. Be ashamed and confounded for your ways, O house of Israel." Ezek 36:22-23,32

"The great end of God's work which is variously expressed in Scripture, is indeed but ONE; and this one end is most properly and comprehensively called, THE GLORY OF GOD."
- Jonathan Edwards, The Disertation Concerning the End for which God Created the World
"There was nothing brought under the consideration of the students of divinity who attended me at Geneva which appeared to contribute so effectually to overthrow their false system of religion, founded on philosophy and vain deceit, as the sublime view of the majesty of God presented in the four concluding verses in this part of the epistle [Rom 11:33-36]: Of him, and through him, and to him, are all things. Here God is described as his own last end in everything he does. Judging of God as such as one as themselves, they were at first startled at the idea that he must love himself supremely, infinitely more than the whole universe, and consequently must prefer his own glory to everything besides. But when they were reminded that God in reality is infinitely more amiable and more valuable than the whole creation and that consequently, if he views things as they really are, he must regard himself as infinitely worthy of being more valued and loved, they saw that this truth was incontrovertible. Their attention was at the same time directed to numerous passages of Scripture, which assert that the manifestation of the glory of God is the great end of creation, that he has himself chiefly in view in all his works and dispensations, and that it is a purpose in which he requires that all his intelligent creatures should acquiesce, and seek and promote it as their first and paramount duty."
