Exodus 33
12 Moses said to the LORD, "You have been telling me, 'Lead these people,' but you have not let me know whom you will send with me. You have said, 'I know you by name and you have found favor with me.' 13 If you are pleased with me, teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you. Remember that this nation is your people."14 The LORD replied, "My Presence will go with you, and I will give you rest."
15 Then Moses said to him, "If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. 16 How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?" 17 And the LORD said to Moses, "I will do the very thing you have asked, because I am pleased with you and I know you by name."
Have you ever had a passage of Scripture get stuck in your mind for what seems like months on end? Did it ever get to the point where no matter how hard you tried to read/study other things you were forced to admit that all you could think about was "that passage"? Well that's where I am and the above passage is what has been haunting the hollows of my mind. The funny thing is that this isn’t the first time this passage has done this to me.
If it’s ok with you, I want take the next couple of days and see what God does with this passage and this man a “second time around.” So, just know that this Scripture will be the basic plot of my next blog. Feel free to comment on what this passage does in you as you see it, I would enjoy the dialogue. However, right now it’s late and I need sleep, thus I must bid you good night… good night!
