If Ihave found grace in your sight, show me your way, that I may know You and thatI may found grace in your sight(Ex. 33:13)
At the time Moses prayed the prayerof knowing God, he has covered so much ground for God. Moses has communicatedwith God one-on-one and led through the red sea. Yet, a man that knows God likeMoses continues to ask God to show him His way. One will wonder about whatMoses wanted to know that he does not know at that junction of his journey in life.Moses asked show meyour wayÉthe wayof God is the direction of God. The direction of God is in GodÕs word. The wordof God is God. Assuming you asked for your child to be picked up at school withyour written direction, that child will be released to me because I have yourword and it has been taken as you. The word of God is God. Moses knew what hewas asking when he asked for GodÕs way. He identified that GodÕs way is God.
~Way~
The way ofGod, the direction of God, and the word of God is the only way unto deliveranceand preservation in direction to our Canaan Land. As the vehicle 2004 rolls to anend, 2005 comes into sight, begin to desire for His way. Despite MosesÕ standin the Lord, he realized the need of knowing Him more. You and I are all in ajourney through the wilderness to our Canaan Land and that requires daily knowledgefor having edge over every situation in our passage of life. Like Moses, Davidnever lost the consciousness of asking for GodÕs way. In Psa.25:7, David asked show me Yourways, O lord; Teach me Your paths. In His way there is deliverance and there ispreservation and once that is in place in the life of a man, victory is in placeover all issues of life. Among the ways you want to consider in remaining andmaintaining yourself in His way, is for you to begin to desire of the Lord a dwellingin His presence.
~Enterand Dwell~
Enteringinto His presence is not enough. God wants you to dwell in Him. You have beenentering long enough. It is time for dwelling.The word that came for Jeremiahis still echoing loud enough for those in the house of God. In Jer.7:2, the LordÕs word cameto Jeremiah saying, Òstand in the gate of the LordÕs house, and proclaim therethis word, and say, ÔHear the word of the LORD, all you who of Judah who enterin at these gates to worship the LORD!ÓV.3 Thus says the LORD of hosts, the Godof Israel: ÒAmend your ways and your doingsand I will cause you to dwell in this place.
This isfor those that have called on God at one point in your life; those who arecalling on Him once every week or that is having a marginal commitment to Hisholy name. It could also be for those that are riding on the feeling of maximumcommitment rather than His filling that is generating maximum commitment. TheLORD has sent JeremiahÉ it is enough of entering; begin to dwell in Him foraccess ability into His way. No wonder, the Psalmist asked in Psa. 27:4, one thing I have desiredof the Lord that I will seek: That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all thedays of my life.You have only been entering, begin to dwell in Him. For the journey that isahead of you just like it was in Moses, you will need more than those weekly,monthly or New YearÕs Eve entering and exiting. As the year 2004 rolls to anend, desire for a dwelling for direction.Ê The journey is deep and God in Hisgoodness and mercy will enable you. Ê
Heb.11:3,by faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the
wordof God. Thesame word is still delivering and preserving. I pray all
that seemsimpossible in your life to be reframed and reformed by the
word ofGod
