• 0:00
  There is something about encountering the glory of God that is
• 0:06
  far removed.
• 0:07
  One of the most popular prayer we found in the Bible is when
• 0:12
  Moses prayed to God
• 0:14
  SPEAKER_00: that God should show him his glory.
• 0:20
  SPEAKER_00: We read through the Bible
• 0:23
  and we see men who encounter Jesus we realize that whenever
• 0:29
  they encounter Jesus
• 0:31
  there's something that is evident there's something that is
• 0:35
  evident take Peter for
• 0:38
  example when he encountered Jesus for the first time his first
• 0:41
  statement was that
• 0:44
  SPEAKER_00: Jesus should okay yes the word depart from me Peter cried
• 0:52
  and he fell before him and he said for I am a sinful man then
• 0:58
  we read of Daniel
• 1:00
  when Daniel encountered the glory of God Daniel said I Daniel
• 1:04
  alone saw the vision
• 1:06
  SPEAKER_00: I was left alone
• 1:07
  and saw this great vision and there remained no strength in me
• 1:12
  for my comeliness
• 1:13
  that is his righteousness was turned into corruption and I
• 1:19
  retained no strength and
• 1:21
  when I heard the voice of his words then I was in a deep sleep
• 1:27
  on my face and my
• 1:29
  SPEAKER_00: face towards the ground
• 1:33
  SPEAKER_00: So we see one of the most blameless saints in the Bible,
• 1:36
  SPEAKER_00: one of the most pure man in the scriptures.
• 1:42
  When he was confronted with the divine glory of God,
• 1:50
  he prostrated at the corruption.
• 1:53
  SPEAKER_00: Not of his vices, not of the evil that he has done, but of his virtues.
• 2:02
  I can go on and on and you realize that when we truly encounter
• 2:08
  the glory of God
• 2:09
  the first thing it will do is it will reveal our sinfulness
• 2:15
  whether you have not
• 2:16
  done any evil in your life the moment you encounter the glory
• 2:19
  of God it will take
• 2:22
  SPEAKER_00: you on a revelation of your true nature
• 2:29
  SPEAKER_00: So when we pray to see the glory of God,
• 2:32
  SPEAKER_00: let us be prepared for the thing that we will encounter.
• 2:36
  One of those things that we will encounter is the sinfulness or
• 2:41
  the corruption of ourself.
