Exodus 33:15
Then Moses said to the LORD, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here.”
Explanation:
After Israel sinned and worshipped the golden calf, God told Moses to take the people and go to the promised land. There was one catch—God said He would not go with the people. They would still get their material, earthly dream but without God. Moses responds by saying, “I am willing to cancel everything, everything I have dreamed of, everything I have worked for if we can’t have You LORD!”
Prayer:
LORD, I want the clarity that Moses had concerning the greatest good in life—You. Protect me from the consumerism that tempts us to settle for desires far below what we were created for (Sky Jethani). Protect me from any earthly hope or dream that I would settle for instead of You. Protect me from responding to success by simply giving myself more and more to that which I succeed in. Protect me from any addiction that becomes my temporary pleasure. LORD, may my every thought be of You. May my every desire be for You. May my every action be according to Your will. May I shed any sin that keeps me from You. May I be willing to cancel any good thing that I might stay in the security, love, fullness of walking with You. LORD, You are my greatest good.
Pray this for yourself and five other people.
Believing God can draw our hearts to Him,
Neil
