The Key to Experiencing God's Presence
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
To ascend to God, you must first desire Him. But what does that desire actually look like in your daily life? Are you living in indifference toward God’s presence, or are you completely dependent on it?
In Part 2 of our "Ascend" series, we dive deep into what it takes to experience the manifested glory—the Kabod—of God. Looking at Elijah in 1 Kings 19, Moses in Exodus 33, and the Transfiguration in Matthew 17, we learn that true desire requires turning away from the love of the world and stepping directly into His presence through prayer.
The weight of God's goodness doesn't just fill us with wonder—it reveals our deep need for Him. And the greatest news of all? We can ascend to the throne room only because Jesus first descended to us.
