WEEK 2 DAY 1
Creating Space for Glory
Devotional
In our busy, noisy world, it's easy to miss the moments when God reveals Himself. We rush from one activity to the next, our minds cluttered with to-do lists and worries. Yet God longs to meet with us in intimate spaces where His glory can be experienced.
Moses understood this desire when he boldly asked God, "Please show me your glory." This wasn't a casual request—it was the deep longing of someone who had tasted enough of God's goodness to hunger for more. Moses knew that encountering God's glory would transform him in ways nothing else could.
The mountaintop where Moses met God wasn't just a physical location; it represented a space set apart for divine encounter. Today, our "mountaintop" might be a quiet corner in our home, a morning walk, or even a few minutes in the car before work—anywhere we intentionally create space to meet with God.
When we make room for God in our lives, we position ourselves to experience His glory. This doesn't always mean emotional highs or dramatic revelations. Sometimes it's in the quiet whisper, the gentle nudge, or the subtle reminder of His presence that we encounter His glory most profoundly.
Today, consider where your mountaintop might be. What space can you create in your life to meet with God in intimacy?
Bible Verse
"Then Moses said, 'Now show me your glory.' And the LORD said, 'I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the LORD, in your presence.'" - Exodus 33:18-19
Reflection Question
What distractions or busyness might be preventing you from creating a dedicated space to encounter God's glory in your daily life?
Quote
The mountaintop is not always a high emotional experience. The point of meeting God on the mountaintop is it is an intimate space that is set apart from every other space.
Prayer
Lord, help me create space in my life to meet with You. Remove the distractions that keep me from experiencing Your glory. Like Moses, I ask that You would show me Your glory in ways that transform my heart. Amen.
