THE LIFE OF MOSES #121

MOSES AT MT. SINAI #20

THE TRANSFORMING GLORY OF GOD #4

REVIEW

What have we learnt so far about the transforming power of God's glory?

God's glory is a transforming power.

Moses was in the presence of the living God, that’s why there was glory on his face.

God’s glory was transforming Moses and that same glory is in the heart of the believer in Jesus Christ. In other words, God’s glory is transforming us. 

But into what?

Into the image of His Son.

God’s glory was transforming Moses because he was near to God’s presence.

There is something similar that happens in the life of the believer in Jesus Christ. When you have your own spiritual, devotional, personal, intimate “tent of meeting” encounters with God, you will, in fact, be transformed.

2 Corinthians 3:7-8, "If the ministry of death, in letters engraved on stones, came with glory, so that the sons of Israel could not look intently at the face of Moses because of the glory of his face, fading as it was, how will the ministry of the Spirit fail to be even more with glory?"

The Holy Spirit, the very presence of the living God, dwells in the heart of the one who trusts in Christ.

We love Romans 8:28, but we need to see that it only makes sense in the context of verse 29.

Romans 8:28-30, "We know that God causes all things to work together for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.For those whom He foreknew, he also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethren… And those whom He justified, He also glorified."

N.B. In tomorrow's devotion, we shall discuss the work of the Holy Spirit in transforming us  into the likeness of Christ.
