Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year OneSample
Moses did not know that the skin of his face shone while he walked with Him (Exodus 34:29).
Whose glory are you reflecting?
Initially, Moses doesn’t know that his face carries a heavenly glow from meeting with the Lord. His shine is temporal. Paul informs us that today we carry a greater degree of God’s glory because of the indwelling Spirit (2 Corinthians 3). He writes, “But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18). Sadly, the scribes and Pharisees pretend to display the Lord’s presence in their lives by wearing large phylacteries (Matthew 23:5). Phylacteries are a small box that house Bible verses, worn on the head or arm. We shouldn’t imitate these hypocrites who aren’t seeking to display God’s glory, but their own.
Employment Point: Reflect God’s glory by regularly basking in His glory.
