When His Glory Passes By

Exodus 33:21-22 and the Sunset from the Island in the Sky, Canyon Lands National Park, Utah.

“Then the Lord said, ‘There is a place near me where you may stand on a rock. When my glory passes by, I will put you in a cleft in the rock and cover you with my hand until I have passed by.’” Exodus 33:21-22

We Will See His Glory

The glory of God is so much greater than the glory of a sunset, yet a sunset gives us a glimpse of God’s glory.

In Exodus 33 Moses caught a glimpse of God’s actual glory while on Mount Sinai. But God could not show Moses His face and His full glory because Moses would die due to his human sin. But because of Jesus and His death and resurrection Christian believers will someday see God’s unveiled face and His full glory in Heaven. Praise Him!

To learn about Moses and his fellowship with God read all of Exodus 33.

“Sing to God, sing praises to His name; Lift up a song for Him who rides through the deserts, whose name is the LORD, and exult before Him. A father of the fatherless and a judge for the widows, is God in His holy habitation.” Psalm 68:4-5

Even Through Deserts

Praise the Lord that He is “a father to the fatherless.” Though a desert seems barren there is life there. If you look close at this desert landscape photo you will see a bird flying above the rock formations. God carries us through our lives and through deserts. We are never barren when we have the Lord.

A Fortress and Our Defense

Isaiah 25:4 and Hoodoo Formations, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah.

“For You have been a defense for the helpless, A defense for the needy in his distress, A refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat; For the breath of the ruthless Is like a rain storm against a wall.” Isaiah 25:4

God Our Defense

In God we find our defenses. He is our refuge from the storm. He protects His believers at all times. He is an impenetrable fortress.
