… enlightening your human spirit.
MOSES ASKED FOR IT, GOD DID IT!
“Then he said to Him, “if Your presence does not go with us, do not bring us up from here. For how then will it be known that Your people and I have found grace in Your sight, except You go with us? So we shall be separate, Your people and I, from all the people who are upon the face of the earth.” Exodus 33:15-16 NKJV
Moses knew that when God was walking with them, they were different from others. They were treated and perceived as special people. They got better, and unusual results, when compared to those who do not believe in God around them. That is why he told God, we won’t go anywhere unless you go with us! He was blunt: *”for how then will it be known that Your people and I have found grace in Your sight, except You go with us? So we shall be separate, Your people and I, from all the people who are upon the face of the earth.”*
God granted that request immediately, because He understood that Moses was right! He is the One that makes the difference. *”So the Lord said to Moses, “I will also do this thing that you have spoken; for you have found grace in My sight, and I know you by name.”* Exodus 33:17 NKJV. The wonders that God was performing while walking with the Jews was one of the reasons the nations that surrounded them feared them. The nations that surrounded Israel heard about how God mysteriously destroyed all their enemies. They knew that He fed them with bread that fell from the sky. They saw that the Jews were not ordinary people, by the kind of results they were getting. The Supreme Being must be helping them! Even Haman’s wife and his wise friends told him, when he was plotting how to destroy Modecai and the Jews: *”… if Mordecai, before whom you have begun to fall, is of Jewish descent, you will not prevail against him but will surely fall before him.”* Esther 6:13 NKJ. No one can defeat anyone that The Almighty is defending!
In the New Testament, Jesus has fulfilled Moses’ request again. Jesus clearly said: *”… lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”* Matthew 28:20 NKJV. He is with us, day and night! Round-the-clock!! We have no reason to fear. Hebrews 13:5-6 NKJV *”… For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.” So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?””* Because the Lord is with you, you will get extraordinary results in your businesses and in that office. You will be different everywhere you go, and in all your dealings. No force of darkness or wickedness will be able to overcome you. Rejoice, and be bold, in the LORD!
