Revelation 22:4

Jul 20, 2023    Pastor Josh Lewis

In the story of Moses receiving the ten commandments from God, he interacts directly with God, but God tells him "you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live” (Exodus 33:20). But when we enter into Heaven, there is a radical transformation that takes place. We will see God face to face! How can this be? How can we, mere humans, be in the presence of a perfectly holy and righteous God? The transformation is not because of anything we have done, but because God has identified us as His own. By writing His name on us, He has imprinted His character on us to reflect His divine glory and righteousness. In our service and worship to Him, we will see God’s face and our face will reflect that we are HIS!


PRAY: Lord God, it is hard for us to imagine now what it will be like to see you face to face. We fall so short of your glory, but in your infinite grace and mercy you have chosen us to be yours! Help us in this life to abide more with Jesus, to walk closer to you, to reflect more of your image while we are still in these imperfect bodies. In Jesus' name, Amen.
