Extraordinary Ordinary!

31天中的第10天

Moses went up to the high places of God to respond to His call and His offer of friendship and intimacy. Have you been to the high places of God in response to all that He is and all that He offers in relationship? It is in that high place of worship and submission that you, like Moses, will hear His voice.

The Lord spoke to Moses simply because they were friends, which resonates within all of us as abundant life at its finest. Having God consider you as His very own friend, as someone He loves, and as an intimate companion is truly the most magnificent aspect of life this side of Heaven. All other friendships pale in comparison, all other experiences fade on the horizon, and all other pursuits seem trivial in comparison. Never cheapen the value of abundant life and mistakenly place it in the same category as Disney and dollars and diamonds. You, as the object of His undying love, have been selected to cultivate a friendship with God.

When Moses came out from meeting with the Lord, the skin of his face had a radiance about it that was visible to all with whom he came in contact. The people, also, who come in contact with you should see the remnant of the divine romance on your face. Your time in His presence should seep out of the earthly pores of your life and nearly be inexplicable to the world. When you slow down enough to be an intimate friend of God and choose to go to the high places of His presence, it will change your countenance, your influence, and how the companions of this world perceive you. Abundant life was never meant only for you, but it was meant to impact those who gather around your life. Face-to-face contact with God is the greatest difference-maker you will ever experience. It trumps counseling sessions, prestigious education environments, rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous, and well-worn passports. To behold God and to remain unchanged is humanly impossible!
