Day 5 of The 7 Day Challenge to Getting to Know God ... Better.
Becoming a friend of God! It starts with understanding He calls us his friends.
Exodus 33:11
The LORD would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend.
What an incredible experience that Moses had while he lived here on earth. God would come and speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend.
What was it about Moses that moved God to do this? I would suggest that it was Moses’s heart.
Moses cried out to God to “teach me your ways so I may know you and continue to find favor with you." (Ex. 33:13)” And later it was said that, “God made known his ways to Moses, and His acts to the people of Israel (Psalm 103:7)
Teach me your ways. Notice he did not ask for things.
When you understand the "ways" you will understand the "whys." Abraham wanted to know what was important to Him. Think about that.
Friends understand each other because they know the how, when and why of things we believe and are going through.
Understanding He is our friend is the foundation of this closeness we are seeking.
That's what Day 5 has revealed to me.
Here is the worship I mentioned in this episode. Please take a few minutes to look it up online.
