Daily Bible Reading: Exodus 23, 24, 25; Psalm 25, 55, 85, 115, 145; Proverbs 25

“And Moses came and told the people all the words of the LORD, and all the judgments: and all the people answered with one voice, and said, All the words which the LORD hath said will we do.” Exodus 24:3


What an awesome privilege Moses had. He was able to have close, intimate fellowship with the creator of the universe. Better yet, he was able to be in the presence of God and live.
I think we forget about how truly holy God is. The sad reality is that even a lot of God’s children do not care about His holiness. We have access to God through the finished work of Jesus on the cross. This is the only way that unholy man can approach God, who is holiness.
Moses was able to go into God’s presence. While he was in God’s presence, he was given “the law” or as we call it, The Ten Commandments. There is tremendous benefit from being in God’s presence. This is a privilege we need to daily exercise. What a joy we can have in God’s presence in prayer and Bible study.
