Ask For His Glory

I love it in the Bible where God tells Moses He will grant him the desire of his heart with the words “I will do what you ask.” Before you go thinking God is a genie in a bottle to control, let me tell you He most certainly is not. He does reserve the right to reward us, and God was pleased with Moses.

What charges me up isn’t that God made the offer, but that Moses had experienced enough of God’s goodness, spent so much time talking to him as a friend, he requested something so outrageously cool, it still blows us away today: “ Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.” Exodus 33:18

I don’t know that I would have thought of that, but Moses did. He had glimpsed something in God’s character that he knew he had to have more of – God’s goodness! His Glory!  I believe glory is when your right relationship with God becomes manifest in your life, real and tangible.

Moses so wanted to go from glory to glory. Like him, if you and I go after God’s glory, we’ll move from deep to deeper places in His presence.

That’s why the Bible says that “Deep calls unto deep…” God takes us into the extraordinary and gives us a glimpse of eternity with Him, from everlasting to everlasting.

Want to join me in going after God’s glory? The fringe benefits of a deeper and everlasting relationship are yours for the asking – so ask!
