Can’t be without You, Lord
Down the mountain…
Back to my life…
No more ordinary things…

‘Til I see You again!
Show me Your glory!
Can’t live without You, Lord!!
Exodus 33:12-23
Moses and the Glory of the Lord
Moses said to the Lord,
“You have been telling me,
‘Lead these people,’
but you have not let me know whom You will send with me.
You have said,
‘I know you by name and you have found favor with me.’
If You are pleased with me,
teach me Your ways
so I may know You
and continue to find favor with You.
Remember that this nation is Your people.”
The Lord replied,
“My Presence will go with you,
and I will give you rest.”
Then Moses said to him,
“If Your Presence does not go with us,
do not send us up from here.
How will anyone know that You are pleased with me
and with Your people unless You go with us?
What else will distinguish me and Your people
from all the other people on the face of the earth?”
And the Lord said to Moses,
“I will do the very thing you have asked,
because I am pleased with you
and I know you by name.”
Then Moses said,
“Now show me Your Glory.”
And the Lord said,
“I will cause all My Goodness
to pass in front of you,
and I will proclaim My Name,
The Lord,
in your presence.
I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy,
and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
But,” He said, “you cannot see My Face,
for no one may see Me and live.”
Then the Lord said,
“There is a place near Me where you may stand on a rock.
When My Glory passes by,
I will put you in a cleft in the rock
and cover you with My Hand until I have passed by.
Then I will remove My Hand
and you will see My Back;
but My Face must not be seen.”
Lord,
We must have Your Presence…
Your Glory in our lives…
You must go with us…
Or we can’t go!
We can’t live without You!!
Amen!
