God’s mercy to is promised and reiterated to us. God shows Moses His glory. His glory now lives in us through Christ in the person of The Holy Spirit Hallelujah Amen.

Exodus 34:5-7
5 Then the Lord came down in the cloud and stood there with him and proclaimed his name, the Lord.
6 And he passed in front of Moses, proclaiming, “The Lord, the Lord, the compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness,
7 maintaining love to thousands, and forgiving wickedness, rebellion and sin. Yet he does not leave the guilty unpunished; he punishes the children and their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation.”

How badly do you want to see God’s manifest presence? Is this even possible anymore? Could our deep hunger and desire for God and a plea to God to show His glory cause Him to manifest to us? God made a promise to Moses clearly stating He would show Himself to Moses. Can He do the same for us? It is not impossible, but look at the devotion and obedience Moses had towards God. Are you ready to give that much devotion and obedience to God?

Exodus 33:18-23
18 Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”
19 And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
20 But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for no one may see me and live.”
21 Then the Lord said, “There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock.
22 When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by.
23 Then I will remove my hand and you will see my back; but my face must not be seen.”

How do your neighbors, colleagues, or the world around you know that you belong to God or that you are saved and unique/separate from them? Does God, knowing God, living for God cause you to stand out? Is this important? Does God honor or bless those who desire to be like Him – “OTHER”? Please read the following verses and you decide:

Exodus 33:15-17
15 Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.
16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”
17 And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.”

Matthew 5:15-17
15 Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.
16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”
17 And the Lord said to Moses, “I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name.”

Here is a humble and sincerely broken plea to God which God loved and honored. God made a promise following that still remains today. What is your broken and sincere plea to God?

Exodus 33:12-14
12 Moses said to the Lord, “You have been telling me, ‘Lead these people,’ but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, ‘I know you by name and you have found favor with me.’
13 If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people.”
14 The Lord replied, “My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest.”

Could you be considered a friend of God? Does God speak to you? Praise God Almighty that we are blessed and the promise made to our forefathers has come to pass through Christ Jesus being that He has saved us and made us co-heirs with Him. We are not just friends, more than that we are sons and daughters of God Hallelujah Amen!!! And yes God speaks in varying forms to us His children (His sheep) Thank You Lord JESUS!!!!!

Exodus 33:11
11 The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend.

John 10:27
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.

Our God is looking for just one who will intercede on behalf of others. The one that would not compromise their walk with Him because of the pressures of life or temptation. He listens to the prayers of that one. Are you that one?

Exodus 32:
11 But Moses sought the favor of the Lord his God. “Lord,” he said, “why should your anger burn against your people, whom you brought out of Egypt with great power and a mighty hand?
12 Why should the Egyptians say, ‘It was with evil intent that he brought them out, to kill them in the mountains and to wipe them off the face of the earth’? Turn from your fierce anger; relent and do not bring disaster on your people.
13 Remember your servants Abraham, Isaac and Israel, to whom you swore by your own self: ‘I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and I will give your descendants all this land I promised them, and it will be their inheritance forever.’ ”
14 Then the Lord relented and did not bring on his people the disaster he had threatened.

Ezekiel 22:30
30 “I looked for someone who might rebuild the wall of righteousness that guards the land. I searched for someone to stand in the gap in the wall so I wouldn’t have to destroy the land, but I found no one.

Exodus 29,30 and 31 clearly emphasize that God has blessed us and given us all the skill, talent and ability to produce holy things for Him. To each of us, there is a calling and gift and a distinct work for you to do. In addition, we must clean up and wash away all filth to be acceptable to God. Our sin and sinfulness cuts us off from His presence. No wonder some people say cleanliness is next to godliness. Then your work must be impeccable which requires time and effort and very careful workmanship. Plan well and execute excellently for God today. Please read all of Exodus 29, 30 and 31 and see what’s expected of you. God will then speak directly to you for others sake since your are now holy and His:

Exodus 31:18
18 When the Lord finished speaking to Moses on Mount Sinai, he gave him the two tablets of the covenant law, the tablets of stone inscribed by the finger of God.

Do you intentionally meet with God each day? Do you have a special meeting place prepared for Him? If you do, then here’s a guaranteed blessing for you; a promise God will not break

Exodus 29:44-46
44 “So I will consecrate the tent of meeting and the altar and will consecrate Aaron and his sons to serve me as priests.
45 Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God.
46 They will know that I am the Lord their God, who brought them out of Egypt so that I might dwell among them. I am the Lord their God.

Good morning, it is not a coincidence that today’s verse comes to us. Today or the happenings in the world were not planned by us. And God who knows all things is reminding us not to fear or worry. Last week we received news that the plague was found in Flagstaff Arizona and then yesterday the first uncontrolled ebola incident was found in Dallas Texas. Here’s what God has already said – believe it:

Leviticus 25:18b
18 …and you will live safely in the land.

Psalm 91:10
no evil will conquer you; no plague will come near your home.

Has God not called us out so we could exclusively serve and worship Him? For us who commit to be His priests and priestesses, He will arrange for the finest of things to be made for us so we may glow and be beautiful in the sight of others to His glory. You can read beyond the verses below to see how beautifully God adorns those who serve Him.

Exodus 28:1-5
1 “Have Aaron your brother brought to you from among the Israelites, along with his sons Nadab and Abihu, Eleazar and Ithamar, so they may serve me as priests.
2 Make sacred garments for your brother Aaron to give him dignity and honor.
3 Tell all the skilled workers to whom I have given wisdom in such matters that they are to make garments for Aaron, for his consecration, so he may serve me as priest.
4 These are the garments they are to make: a breastpiece, an ephod, a robe, a woven tunic, a turban and a sash. They are to make these sacred garments for your brother Aaron and his sons, so they may serve me as priests.
5 Have them use gold, and blue, purple and scarlet yarn, and fine linen.

1 Peter 2:9
9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
