As Moses entered the tent, the column of cloud would come down and stand at its entrance while the Lord spoke with Moses. The Lord used to speak to Moses face to face, as one man speaks to another. (Exodus 33:9, 11)
God our Father, you never fail to surprise us; thank you very much for our first ever Olympic gold last night after another usual frustrating afternoon at the SONA.
Hidilyn's record-breaking performance last night at the Tokyo Olympics tells us the same thing when Moses would enter your tent to converse with you:
Nothing can replace hard work and discipline; there can be no substitute to sound mind and sound body in order to achieve every goal that we set in life and in public.
He said in reply, "He who sows good seed is the Son of Man, the field is the world, the good seed are the children of the Kingdom. The weeds are the children of the Evil One, and the enemy who sows them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels." (Matthew 13:37-39)
Give us the discipline and perseverance, Lord Jesus to always enter your presence in prayer like Moses inside the tent at the wilderness meeting God, face to face, to face and fight evil.
Let us desire more silent moments with the you, O Lord in order to listen more to your words that are not only transformative but most of all, performative in keeping us steadfast with your laws against sin.
We pray, O God for our decision-makers and leaders, for us all to always seek your will by entering your presence in silent prayers so we may hear clearly your words and see your face. Amen.
