TOPIC: MAINTAIN YOUR FREEDOM II   MEMORISE :  He sent his word, and healed them, and delivered them from their destructions. Psalm 107:20  P READ : 2 Corinthians 3:16-18  16 Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. 17 Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. 18 But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord.    MESSAGE The devil is a thief, so when he visits a person or family, his agenda is to steal, kill, and destroy. Unlike the devil, Jesus has come so that you can enjoy abundant life (John 10:10). Today, I want to share some more ways a person who has been delivered from the devil's bondage can maintain his or her freedom and truly enjoy the abundant life that Jesus gives. It is sad when someone who has been delivered by the mighty hand of God loses his or her libe...

Memorize: One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after, that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. Psalms 27:4

Read: Exodus 33:18-23

Moses was a student of the school of obedience. So also was Jesus and great Bible heroes. The grade with which you graduate from this school goes a long way in determining the glory of God you will have and the fulfillment of your destiny.
As Moses' score in obedience improved, he began to witness certain developments in his life. He became a carrier of God's high level of glory and also attracted God's presence wherever he went. Other Israelites went to the tabernacle to pray and worship God but nothing unusual happened.
But when Moses entered the same tabernacle, the pillar of cloud came and stood at the door of the tabernacle. As he persisted in obedience and prayed, not only did the cloud of glory become a reoccurring decimal in his life, but also the pillar of fire. In his case, these two manifest signs of God's glorious presence were physical.

Moses basked in the glory of the Lord, yet like Oliver Twist, he was not satisfied. He kept craving for more. He set aside past encounters with God. During an intense moment of prayer, he asked God to show him His glory and God did. God watches us very closely.
He knows those who are serious about receiving His glory and those who are not. Also from this, we learn that before you can access a higher level of glory, you must intensely desire it as well as fervently pray for it. While others were busy asking for material blessings, Moses was asking for God's glory.
The level of God's glory Moses requested for was such that no human being could withstand. But God relaxed certain conditions before showing Moses His glory so that he did not taste death at the time. Moses saw God's glory and bowed. The children of Israel saw God's glory on Moses and bowed too.
God's glory had rubbed off on him. You too can desire the glory to a point that everyone will know that the glory of God you carry is unquenchable.

KEY POINT: Obedience is a door leading to all blessings from God. When combined with strong desire, they open up great possibilities. 
Bible in one year: Ezekiel 34-36
