God allowed Moses to see His glory so that he might be changed by the sight of it—and the same is true for us today. God reveals His glory to us so that by seeing it, we might be changed into His very own image!
Today, Jesus Christ is the express image of who God is. When our Lord became flesh, it was as a full revelation of the heavenly Father’s mercy, grace, goodness and readiness to forgive. God wrapped up everything of His nature and character in Jesus. And any revelation of His glory to us now is meant to change us into an expression of Christ.
The apostle Paul understood well the purpose and effect of seeing the glory of God. He saw it as power to change the beholder, to revolutionize the life of every follower of Christ. “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass (mirror) the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3:18).
Paul is telling us, “Once you get this revelation of God’s glory—of His love, mercy, grace, long-suffering and readiness to forgive—the Holy Spirit will continually open your eyes to more of these aspects of His nature and character. You’ll have an ever-increasing revelation of God, in the way He wants to be known to you.”
Paul then says in an even stronger tone: “That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him: the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints” (Ephesians 1:17-18).
Beloved, God wants to tell us, “Moses understood My glory, and now I want you to understand it. I want to open your eyes by My Spirit to show you who I am. I’m not just a God of wrath and judgment. My nature is love!”
“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love, may be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; and to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that you might be filled with all the fullness of God” (3:17-19).
Faith Love n Desire 
The anchor scripture for your post, I believe should be embossed on every temple and be tattooed in our hearts as believers: “But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass (mirror) the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord” (2 Corinthians 3

I had one of those glow worm dolls growing up. When I was little, hearing the story of how Moses glowed after coming into the presence of God, I thought of my little worm. It glowed in the dark when I was afraid. It comforted me and let me know that I wasn’t alone. Now that I am older I am not afraid of the dark so much, but of life in general. I wish that I had a glow light from God to light my way. I wish that I could be that glowing orb to others that see me. But most of all I wish that I could feel God’s presence, really feel it so that my inside glowed all the time. Life tends to drag us down and I get so far from this reality. I keep looking heavenward waiting for me to be struck by his massive glow of love. Meghan
your wish is always in my prayer. God bless you. thank you for your golden words.
May we all see the glory of our Lord afresh and appreciate His greatness! Thanks for a great posting Neeky. Lord bless you!
Beautiful! May we each see holy and wholly what He sees and go after it in full pursuit for His glory!
We must have been on the same “wavelength” today! My post is something like this.
God is a God of many emotions, but it’s His loving nature we must seek. I’d hate to try to oppose Him!
Take care, my dear friend…
Steve
Awesome Word! As we mature, glory to glory, His glory becomes more evidence in us. Thanks for sharing!
God bless you Neeky! Hugs!
Hi Neeky! The nature of God IS love…and even in His wrath and judgement He expresses that to those who will understand the context of the complete, “agape” type of love He possesses!
If we respond to His rebukes, or admonishments, with “reviewing and renewing” ourselves to Him and His work, we have responded to His love. For He “disciplines those whom He loves…” (Heb. 12:6)
Great post, my dear!
Steve 🙂
Very well expressed! May God bless you and this blog as you truly touch peoples hearts.
I miss you!
