Summary
In our second day of looking at how to live an unveiled lifestyle, we’re going to apply the example of Moses to our own lives. Specifically, we’re going to look at the closeness he had with God, the depth of experience and encounter he had with the God who loves you and I just as much as he loves Moses. May God draw us closer to him, and give us eyes to see his face today.
Our Scripture for today comes from Exodus 34:29, and today's worship is Hallelujah Here Below by Elevation Worship.
