The Making of God's Leaders

Into the Darkness Where God Is

“Then Moses went up on the mountain, and the cloud covered the mountain.  The glory of the LORD dwelt on Mount Sinai, and the cloud covered it six days. And on the seventh day he called to Moses out of the midst of the cloud.  Now the appearance of the glory of the LORD was like a devouring fire on the top of the mountain in the sight of the people of Israel.  Moses entered the cloud and went up on the mountain. And Moses was on the mountain forty days and forty nights.”
~Exodus 24:15-18
​Moses was called into the darkness.  He waited for six days.  Six days of nothing but darkness, nothing but waiting for God to show up.  But oh, how the wait was worth it!

Seeing Is Not Believing

4/4/2020

​There’s a common saying out there “seeing is believing.”  But there are a few characters in Exodus that defy this catchy idiom.  Remember the story of the Golden Calf from your Sunday school days?  While we’re not at that point in our study of Exodus yet, there is a very interesting little passage here in Exodus 24 that directly connects with that well known story of Israel’s quick abandonment of God.  Do you remember who the key players of the Golden Calf incident were?  Aaron and the elders of Israel.  Well, those same key players were part of an amazing experience a month before the Golden Calf drama.
“Then Moses and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel went up, and they saw the God of Israel. There was under his feet as it were a pavement of sapphire stone, like the very heaven for clearness.  And he did not lay his hand on the chief men of the people of Israel; they beheld God, and ate and drank.”
~Exodus 24:9-11
