Show us Your glory!

“Now therefore, I pray, if I have found grace in Your sight, show me now Your way, that I may know You and that I may find grace in Your sight… Please, show me Your glory.”
Exodus 33:13 &18

The redeemed of the Lord have found grace in God’s sight.  That it is by grace, means we have done nothing—nothing at all, to earn, merit, nor deserve God’s saving grace.

As those who have received God’s grace we have the liberty—displayed by Moses in Exodus 33—to ask God to show us His glory.

Of course we cannot see God or the fullness of His glory until we are glorified and in Heaven, but we can see something of God’s glory.  As Moses was shielded from viewing the complete glory of God by being tucked safely in a crack in a rocky cliff, we are shielded by being “in Christ”, who is the Rock of our salvation.

When we gather for corporate worship, let us cry out to God to show us as much of His glory as we can bear.
