Sermon: 1972 How to Practice the Presence of God, Part 2
Pray Over This
“But if the ministry of death, written and engraved on stones, was glorious, so that the children of Israel could not look steadily at the face of Moses because of the glory of his countenance, which glory was passing away, how will the ministry of the Spirit not be more glorious?”
Ponder This
When Moses spent much time with the Lord face to face, his face began to shine as a reflection of the Shekinah glory of God. In my fireplace, I have a poker. I can take that poker and poke around in the fire, then put it back, and it’ll hardly be hot. But if I take that poker when there’s a roaring fire, and I leave it in there long enough, do you know what’ll happen? It’ll begin to glow. Because not only will the poker be in the fire, the fire will be in the poker. When you spend enough time in the presence of God, the presence of God gets into you. Not only are you there in the presence of God, but the presence of God gets into you.
This is not just true in the Old Testament. Paul said if it was glorious when God gave Moses the Old Testament Ten Commandments, then how is the Spirit not even more glorious? When you spend time with God, it will not fall void, but you will start to look like Him! You will start to reflect Him more in your daily life.
- Who is someone you know who spends a lot of time alone with God? How does that make a difference in that person?
- What makes it hard to spend time alone with God? How can you talk to God about those challenges and ask Him to help you with them?
Practice This
Talk to someone who spends a lot of time alone with God, asking for practical insight and advice on how to pursue God in that way.
