Face to Face

Scripture:

Deuteronomy 34:10  "Since that time no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face".

Observation:

Moses had just died and went to be with His Father.  Joshua was taking over and his story is beginning.  In the text it is almost like an editorial comment that simply tells us that since then, nobody had known God like Moses, face to face.  Moses knew the Lord, face to face.  He walked with Him and talked with Him.  He encountered Him often.

Application:

I want to know the Lord like Moses did.  I want to know Him face to face.  I want to walk with Him and talk with Him.  I want to hear His heart and know His ways.  I long to be in His presence.  I believe there is so much more than what I have experienced in God and I am seeking Him today for more.  I want to know Him intimately.  There is a strong desire in my heart as His return approaches, to know Him more and more.

Prayer:

I want to know You.  I want to follow You.  I want to hear Your voice and see Your face.  I long for You oh God.  You are the source of life and every good thing.  Meet me in my quiet times.  Speak to me in my dreams.  Share Your heart with me for the world.  Show me things to come.  I am Yours and I desire to know You more.

Yours,
Jeff
