In today’s passage, Moses asks the Lord to reveal Himself by showing His glory to Moses. We get to pause and reflect on God’s response. Have you stopped lately to consider God’s glory and goodness? Have you ever asked to see God in His glory

Exodus 33:17-22

17 And the LORD said to Moses, “This very thing that you have spoken I will do, for you have found favor in my sight, and I know you by name.” 18 Moses said, “Please show me your glory.” 19 And he said, “I will make all my goodness pass before you and will proclaim before you my name ‘The LORD.’ And I will be gracious to whom I will be gracious, and will show mercy on whom I will show mercy. 20 But,” he said, “you cannot see my face, for man shall not see me and live.” 21 And the LORD said, “Behold, there is a place by me where you shall stand on the rock, 22 and while my glory passes by I will put you in a cleft of the rock, and I will cover you with my hand until I have passed by.23 Then I will take away my hand, and you shall see my back, but my face shall not be seen.”

[ WHAT ] is this passage saying and what is a key truth or thought that we learn?

+ How does God respond when Moses asks to see his glory? What do you think that means, to see God’s glory?

+ Can Moses see all of God’s glory directly [v. 20-23] Why/not? How does God make a way to grant Moses his request?

+ If you have time read all of Exodus 34 too. What is the impact on Moses after being in the glory and presence of God?

[ HOW ] is the Lord calling me to action/obedience?

+ Is there a sin to confess or a next step to take? How has it gone since last time?

+ Do I desire to see the Lord’s glory and know Him truly for who He is? Or do I want God on my own terms?

[ WHO ] am I walking with and praying for to discover Jesus?

+ What is my next step?
