Exodus 33:13 “If it is true that you look favorably on me, let me know your ways so I may understand you more fully and continue to enjoy your favor. And remember that this nation is your very own people.” (NLT)

Those who come to know God as more than a name, more than an idea, want to know more of who he is. They want to know his ways. Having experienced his grace and mercy, they desire to wade deeper into this love that endures forever.

Sunday worship is a good time to get to know God better. There we are surrounded by others who seek to know his will and ways. In the company of such seekers, we find strength and encouragement. We stand with other pilgrims. We join brothers and sisters on a journey.

Morning by morning, or evening by evening, or both, are good times to get to know God better as well. Learning to see his thumbprint on our lives and in the lives of others is instructive. This becomes clearer many times in retrospect. This is where a daily journal and gratitude journal come in handy. They help us identify and ponder what we often hurry past along the way.

Here is a Sunday prayer: “Our Father, I want to know you and your ways. I want to understand your heart. I want to think your thoughts after you. I want to adjust my life so that I can join you in bringing grace and mercy and peace and wonder in increasing measure into this world of yours. Amen.”

I will seek to know God and his ways.

Daily D – Leviticus 8:23-26

Leviticus 8:23-26 The LORD said to Moses, “This applies to the Levites: Men twenty-five years old or more shall come to take part in the work at the tent of meeting, but at the age of fifty, they must retire from their regular service and work no longer. They may assist their brothers in performing their duties at the tent of meeting, but they themselves must not do the work. This, then, is how you are to assign the responsibilities of the Levites.”

Daily D – Psalm 40:1-3

Psalm 40:1-3

“I waited patiently for the LORD;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
He put a new song in my mouth,
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see and fear the LORD
and put their trust in him.”

Daily D – Leviticus 26:3-13

Leviticus 26:3-13 “‘If you follow my decrees and are careful to obey my commands, I will send you rain in its season, and the ground will yield its crops and the trees their fruit. Your threshing will continue until grape harvest and the grape harvest will continue until planting, and you will eat all the food you want and live in safety in your land.

“ ‘I will grant peace in the land, and you will lie down and no one will make you afraid. I will remove wild beasts from the land, and the sword will not pass through your country. You will pursue your enemies, and they will fall by the sword before you. Five of you will chase a hundred, and a hundred of you will chase ten thousand, and your enemies will fall by the sword before you.

“ ‘I will look on you with favor and make you fruitful and increase your numbers, and I will keep my covenant with you. You will still be eating last year’s harvest when you will have to move it out to make room for the new. I will put my dwelling place among you, and I will not abhor you. I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people. I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of Egypt so that you would no longer be slaves to the Egyptians; I broke the bars of your yoke and enabled you to walk with heads held high.”

your vindication like the noonday sun.”
