Stand on the Rock

2 Mins Read

“And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock” Exodus 33:21

Moses desired to see God, and God told him that no man could see His face. But if he would stand on the rock, He would cover Him with His hand until His glory passed by, and then he would see his hinder parts. As Moses had this experience with God, it gave him strength to continue his duty leading the children of Israel.
We need to find a secret place each day to meet with the Lord. We need to make sure that our feet are settled on the solid rock. Early morning is the best time for this as we satisfy our spiritual thirst, and gain the strength to face the day. All day long, we can draw on that early morning experience, periodically worshipping the Lord and partaking of His Spirit.
Just as drinking water in the morning and several times throughout the day can prevent our natural bodies from becoming dehydrated, so spending time in the presence of the Lord early in the day, and worshiping periodically through the day, will keep our soul saturated with His Spirit, and our feet on the Rock.

Prayer: Jesus, you are the solid rock on which we stand, keep us firmly planted.

Never

1 Min Read

“Never” was a favorite word used by my children.  They often used it to put a guilt trip on me.  “Mom, you never take us…” The word “never” means not ever; at no time.  Not at all; absolutely not; to no extent or degree.  Obviously, my kids didn’t know what…
