#1,097: Holy Ground

The 5 Minute Discipleship Podcast

Do you recognize the presence of God in your life? In one sense God is always with us, but I believe if we seek him, God will show up in manifest presence and power. Let’s ask God to give us a greater desire and awareness of His presence.

Main Points:

1. Imagine how incredible this moment was for Moses. He was in the very presence of God himself. There was a work God wanted to do in him and through him. God had a task and a purpose for Moses’ life, but it would require the presence of God.
2. The same is true for your life. God has a task and a purpose for you, but it too will require the presence of God. It will also require the removal of sin and impure things.
3. Moses recognized the sustaining power of God’s presence was essential in his life and in the life of the Israelites. We must come to this recognition as well.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Exodus 3:2-6 - “Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up. When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, “Moses! Moses!” And Moses said, “Here I am.” “Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” Then he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.” At this, Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at God.”

Exodus 33:15-16 - “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?”
