Topic: Moses meets the Most High
Text: Exodus 24:9-18
9Then went up Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
11And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.
12And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.
13And Moses rose up, and his minister Joshua: and Moses went up into the mount of God.
14And he said unto the elders, Tarry ye here for us, until we come again unto you: and, behold, Aaron and Hur are with you: if any man have any matters to do, let him come unto them.
15And Moses went up into the mount, and a cloud covered the mount.
16And the glory of the LORD abode upon mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days: and the seventh day he called unto Moses out of the midst of the cloud.
17And the sight of the glory of the LORD was like devouring fire on the top of the mount in the eyes of the children of Israel.
18And Moses went into the midst of the cloud, and gat him up into the mount: and Moses was in the mount forty days and forty nights.
Key Verse: “And the LORD said unto Moses, Come up to me into the mount, and be there: and I will give thee tables of stone, and a law, and commandments which I have written; that thou mayest teach them.”(Exodus 24:12).
Message
Joy Bishara and Lydia Pogu the two Chibok school girls from Borno State, Nigeria who escaped Boko Haram kidnapping in 2014 were invited by President Donald Trump to the White House in February 2017. For them and numerous awestruck Nigerians, that would be the highest honour of their lives. But truly speaking, meeting with God, the Omniscient, Omnipotent and Omnipresent, is the greatest honour and experience of life for any mortal.

Moses best captures the majestic glory of the Most High as he was hosted by Him: “…there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness…” The glory of heaven is indescribable. Heaven is a holy place that is prepared for holy people. To live with God in heaven, sinners must heed the call of Jesus, “Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest” (Matthew 11:28). Let Jesus come into your heart today if you are a sinner. If you miss heaven, you will cry forever.
Quote: Heed the call of Jesus
Challenge: If you miss heaven, you will cry forever.
Prayer for today: Father, remove every hindrance in my way to heaven.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
