Editor's Heart for December 2021
"And the LORD said, “Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock. So it shall be, while My glory passes by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock, and will cover you with My hand while I pass by."

Such a moving and powerful account... Moses asks the Lord, "Show me Your glory." And the Lord tells Moses, basically, you can't see My face and live. So He makes a concession to Moses, who (Numbers 12:3) is called the meekest/most humble man on earth at that time. He says (my paraphrase), "OK, Moses. I know you are seeking Me, but you don't really understand what you're asking. So I can't give you what you're asking. But here's what I will do: I'll put you in a place beside Me... a safe place in the cleft of this rock... and I'll pass before you and cover you with my hand so the sheer weight of the glory of My presence doesn't kill you. And I'll let you peek out and see just the tail end of My glory as I pass." WOW!

I can understand Moses' desire. How many times have I (and many of you) cried out, "Lord, I just want to see You!" We long for His presence to fill our sanctuaries... we hunger for His glory to consume our corporate gatherings and our private times of worship... yet we don't realize what we are asking. His presence will not cohabitate with our fleshly, carnal natures. His glory will not consume us when we are not set apart, consecrated to Him. Mercifully, He draws us into the place beside Him, when our hearts seek him sincerely but we are asking for more than we can handle. He reveals Himself to us in ways that are just a glimpse of His fullness, but to our human minds and senses are so overwhelming! I realize that God is speaking very literally when He tells Moses, "No man shall see me and live." But I believe that on another level, the more we die to self... the more our flesh is crucified... the more the life of Christ is lived out through us and in us, the more of God we may see!

Lord, keep me in that place beside You where You cover me with Your hand!

Servant's Heart Outreach
The first responders outreaches are continuing, now reaching out to law enforcement departments. Please pray for this leg of the journey, as reaching out to police departments and sheriff's offices presents a bit of a challenge. These men and women perform vital services in the community; yet because of current sentiments, many departments have had to limit civilian access to their facilities. We are believing God to make a way for us to minister to them during the challenging times. Please pray with us that not only can we gain acess, but that we can also reap a harvest for the Kingdom of God in our city's law enforcement agencies!

A praise report: The Thanksgiving meal for the veterans was well received! We've made a wonderful contact there and may even be able to find other ways to be involved there. Please pray for the staff and veterans of this facility.
