Glory
Moses made an astounding request. He asked God to show him his glory. The word “glory” conveys the idea of weight, significance or importance. In short, God’s glory is the sum total of all the things that make him God. God, in an act of grace, agreed to Moses’ request and provided him a brief and passing glimpse of his eternal worth and majesty, demonstrating his power, his love to his chosen servant and his calling for Moses to lead Israel into the promised land.
One would think that this type of exposure to the glory of God would be reserved only for the great leaders of the Bible — people like Abraham, Joseph, Moses or David. Yet God actually provides all Christians with an ever-increasing display of his glory (2Co 4:6). But this glimpse of glory is not physically observable now. Instead, the Spirit of God captivates believers’ hearts with the glory of God, flooding them with the light of Christ and allowing them to see the majesty of God demonstrated in the person and work of Jesus Christ. This glimpse of glory is the basis for loving God, renouncing sin and serving in God’s mission in the world.
Today’s Prayer:
Jesus, thank you for making it possible for me to experience the glory of God on a daily basis. Help me to respond to this glory by loving and serving you every day. Amen.
